Description
Gentle chaos in the rhythm of the big city: everything is burning, everyone is running, everything is collapsing, and somewhere in the midst of it all, someone quietly whispers, ‘Take it easy, don't rush.’ The words swirl like a soothing mantra-chant that keeps you afloat when there is a storm inside. And even the hardest days become more bearable when there is someone nearby who is ready to accept another's pain without asking whose it is.
There is a contrast in the music - on the one hand, the beat pushes you forward, on the other, the voices seem to ask you to slow down, not to rush, not to become ‘loco’. As a reminder that life is not a sprint, but a long road: you can slow down, take a deeper breath and allow yourself to be vulnerable. Sometimes it is in these pauses that true warmth is hidden.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Overtime
It gets easier if you let it
And you won't regret it
Fate on your side
Know you decide
Nobody else can do it for you
Nothing's in the way
She pull up on
She pull up on me
She pull up on the west side
She pull up on the low, low, low
She pull up when I'm low, low, low
She pull up on the other side
Don't matter if it's day or night
She pull up when shit get low, low, low
She pull up when things get low, low, low
Easy, mama
Easy or
You'll go loco
Easy, mama
Easy, ma
You gotta take your time, you know
Easy, mama
Easy, nuh
Tell me how you feel inside
Easy for your sake
Easy, you know
That I'm always by your side
Easy, oh mm; easy, oh, mama, easy
Easy, oh easy, oh, mama; my, my, my
Slow down, down
Slow down
Take your time time
It's okay to be scared, my love (scared, my love)
It will all be fine (it will all be fine)
I won't lie to you, my baby
Some days you will feel alone
But it's alright (it's alright)
You can always hit my line
She pull up on
She pull up on me
Gave me all her pain
Put it all on me
She pull up on the east side
Always by my side
She pull up on
She pull up on me
Gave me all her pain
Put it all on me
She pull up on the east side
Sagala nakyimulumya nekyimu
Easy, mama (easy, mama)
Easy or
You'll go loco
Easy, mama
Easy, ma
You gotta take your time, you know
Easy, mama
Easy, nuh
Tell me how you feel inside
Easy for your sake
Easy, you know that I'm always by your side
Easy, mama
Easy or
You'll go loco (easy)
Easy, mama
Easy, ma
You gotta take your time, you know
Easy, mama (you know that I'm by your side)
Easy, ma (easy, you know that I'm by your side)
Easy (you know that I'm by your side)
Easy, you know that I'm always-
