about

Heavy, is about those ‘heavy’ personalities you meet in life. It seems to be their nature, their very bones are ‘granite’. Accepting and observing paradigms of personalities is part of letting go of ones own burdens and responsibilities to those that just ‘are’. The energetic delivery and the punching rhythmic lyrical phrasing, just wants to set a fire under that ‘heavy’ load.

Initially this tune was recorded for a 'Masterlink Session' with the studio house band (AKA the Redtenbacher's Funkestra). The chemistry between battle-hardened London Jazz Funk band Redtenbacher’s Funkestra and the Welsh psycadelic art-rock artist Jade Like The Stone seems unlikely but ignited a create spark resulting in recording and entire album together called ‘Seven Roads’ which will be released on Friday 28th of May 2021.

lyrics

HEAVY (lyrics)

VERSE 1

As you’re approaching I can feel every step
The distances closing and you’re too fired up
Anticipating the best, but it’s the worst
Because you’re Heavy

As you’re talking I don’t feel light
You have your burdens but it don’t make it right
And from that bottom you judge my life
But that’s ok, as that’s who you are

CHORUS

Because you’re heavy
Heavier than stone
Ooo because you’re Heavy
You must have granite for your bones


VERSE 2

I can feel you stepping down
From the heaven and the high earth you’re making sounds
You’re on the back foot honey
Everything’s a’crushing
But you can’t ever let your dreams go

CHORUS 2

Because You’re Heavy
Heavier than stone
Because you’re Heavy
You must have granite for your bones

B

I want to carve my name right into your skin, as you never know when you’re gonna’ Roll X2

C

Ahhh you’re just a strain on reality, you live in phantasmagoria
Most of the time
The time
The time
The time

CHORUS

Because You’re Heavy
Heavier than stone
Because you’re Heavy
You must have granite for your bones x2
