about

‘807’ is a moving offering that sees Alamay at her most candid yet with striking vocals gliding over Omar Cassius stripped back production. Sparse sun-kissed guitar riffs meet minimalist percussion on this heart-rending slice of neo-soul.

lyrics

Lines turning cold now
Frosted decisions
You know the reason
You promised me
Lights bring your thoughts out
Old roads to turn down
I’m lined with divisions
From all these decisions
You promised me

Darling can you slow down
Rolling down the windows
Let me blow out
You knew what it was
Yeah you know I told you slow down
Can’t you see that I’m scared to let you go now
Don’t leave me ‘for it’s done

I gave you my visions
Held them cold in position

Dreaming who she was
Hiding under words
Losing what we were
Who led me whos my guide
Lost behind the eyes
Hold you on this ride

I wish I would of left it
Even if you meant it oh
Seats follow recline
She calls you all the time
Shadows over mind

Overthink the distance
Hoping that you'll listen
Can tears erase the missteps
You know I didn't mean to let you go

Darling can you slow down
Rolling down the windows
Let me blow out
You knew what it was
Yeah You know I told you slow down
Can’t you see that I’m scared to let you go now
Don’t leave me ‘for it’s done

I gave you my visions
Held them cold in position

Hold on a minute
Just wait if you could hold on a minute I
Hold on a minute
Just wait if you could hold on a minute I
Hold on a minute
Just wait if you could hold on a minute
