De ambitie van de band mag duidelijk zijn: Met een pompende ritmesectie, harmonieuze en catchy gitaren en meerstemmige, originele vocals wil Orange Fox elk podium in Nederland veroveren en hun stempel drukken in de Nederlandse muziekscene.

What Goes Around
Orange Fox Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They will shape up and then break down
No shallow waters
They will save us, been dragged to the fall
What goes around
Will just come back around again
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Spoke to the fathers
Those who raised you will expect it all
Don't left them wanting
They will chase you even when they're gone
What goes around
Will just come back around
And it's haunting you
What goes around
Will just come back around again
Hold on, hold on
Don't let the shadows follow you
Hold on, hold on
Darkness I fear
Pulls the love out of me
Yeah, the darkness I fear
Lets me see you
What goes around
Will just come back around
What goes around
Will just come back around again
What goes around
Will just come back around
And it's haunting you
What goes around
Will just come back around again
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
What goes around
Will just come back around
The lyrics of Orange Fox's song "What Goes Around" delve into the idea that actions have consequences and the importance of not giving into negative influences. The repeated phrase "no shallow waters" suggests depth and meaning behind every action, and the idea that such actions can either shape us into something stronger or break us down. The line "they will save us, been dragged to the fall" could indicate that true friends and supporters are those who will stick with us through difficult times, even when we've been brought low.
The chorus offers a warning that what we put out into the world will inevitably come back to us; "what goes around will just come back around again." However, the song offers hope in the idea of holding on and not giving up in the face of challenges. The phrase "don't let the shadows follow you" can be interpreted as a call to actively resist negativity and not allow it to control one's life.
The second verse acknowledges the influence of our upbringing and the expectations of those who raised us. The line "they will chase you even when they’re gone" suggests the idea that the legacy of our family and upbringing can continue to impact our lives even after those individuals have passed away.
