Reason Lyrics
I wrote this letter to remind myself the reasons I'm alive
I got to reason number five
With my pen, I wrote on and I tried
To find words that described all the times
I caught myself and realised there are good things just ahead of me
But right now, it gets hard to believe
But I know that I'm safe when I leave
[Chorus]
And you can't speak to me
And when I can't receive
The words I know you mean
Nothing can sеt me free
[Verse 2]
And I was broken, but a little part of mе thinks that I'm glad
I can go through things that make me sad
It's the only time off that I've had
Any more, then I start to go mad
Reason that I had at number one (Was I liked to)
Know the feeling well of being loved (Then number two)
I like the feeling of becoming numb (I can't choose)
Which one I prefer because you can't
[Chorus]
Speak to me
And when I cannot receive
The words I know you mean
Nothing can set me free (It's better you leave me be)

Zach Nahome produced this track. He used to make a lot of garage, drum ’n’ bass, jungle, but his sound is quite different to that nowadays. So this was a bit of a different vibe for him. We made the beat together. I told him what kind of drums I wanted, what kind of sound and space I wanted, and he came up with that. With garage music, I just enjoy the breakbeats of it, the drums. It’s also quintessentially British. We birthed it. I think it’s always nice to go back to your roots.
