This transportive experience takes the viewer beyond their current space, spanning across all seven continents. The video serves as a visually stunning escapade that seamlessly combines elements of nostalgia with a contemporary twist. Drawing inspiration from childhood memories and the acid house and techno music of the 90s, "Nothing to Lose" evokes the spirit of iconic films like Mortal Kombat and Blade.

The combination of the dark color scheme, the transformative narrative, and the global journey through continents makes this audio-video piece a truly immersive and unforgettable artistic endeavor.

Lyrics:

Don’t wanna wait Because I’m feeling something I know it’s not nothing You had it coming

Its to late To turn back now It’d be a shame Not to find out how

Much I hate That I don’t care to see 
what happens to me When I run free

And I now you see That your actions have caused me To do what it tells me And come when it calls me

Want to be Something else for a change Someone not so deranged Somewhere out of range

So you can’t find The little patch it in the light Where I go to hide When it comes to life!

Feels like nothing to loose

I feel it coming Got me crawling I can smell you A mile away

When I close in Is when I notice The hunter has become the prey …and that’s okay
