I agree with the meaning of making your escape or something like that. He says you just got to follow through if you want to achieve something. Yet, I don’t understand what the phrase ‘it kicks like a sleep twitch’ means. I’m not a native speaker, so I used a dictionary, but still I don’t understand how to understand it. Can anybody explain what it means, using other words or something like that?
