(LYRICS)
Breakdown 
Use that pain inside - side ya - side ya (echo) 
Feel that beat inside - side ya - side ya (echo) 

CHORUS
Feelin it strong
Feel it right away

(Use that pain inside ya, 
let go don’t fight the dance)
Just let it hurt!

Blinded by the Sun
Scared to see the day

(Feel that beat inside ya, 
let go don’t fight the dance)
Just let it hurt!

I, I feel it,
I, I, I feel it baby 

(Use that pain inside ya, 
let go don’t fight the dance)
Just let it hurt!

Uh huh you feel it
Uh huh you feel it baby 

(feel that beat inside ya, 
let go don’t fight the dance)
Just let it hurt!

VS ONE
out of line,
out of time,
out my mind,
no bullshit yea
That kinda day 

Rolled the blunt 
Hold the gun 
Say what I want 
Cuz I’m not wishin 
to escape the pain 

Now that ya gon 
I dance til the dawn 
Break the alarm 
Get way too on 

For the night 
I’m alright 
I’ll take a bite 
Of this city 
then face the pain 


CHORUS
Feelin it strong
Feel it right away

(Use that pain inside ya, 
let go don’t fight the dance)
Just let it hurt!

Blinded by the Sun
Scared to see the day

(Feel that beat inside ya, 
let go don’t fight the dance)
Just let it hurt!

I, I feel it,
I, I, I feel it baby 

(Use that pain inside ya, 
let go don’t fight the dance)
Just let it hurt!

Uh huh you feel it
Uh huh you feel it baby 

(feel that beat inside ya, 
let go don’t fight the dance)
Just let it hurt!

VS TWO
Day turns night 
Brand new city 
Bloodshot red 
eyes all on me 
Would I die If I testified?
Crucified just to live my life
The way you left me was unforgiven
my respects to the death I’m feeling 
Fade away 
Runaway 
Hope your new Man fulfills ya needs 
Does he know that you still call me
Late night when you feel so lonely 
Talkin bout how you use to hold me
Tellin me you still feel it for me 
I’m way too young 
Way too pretty
to sit at home 
in self pity 
To find your light go through the dark 
The dance floor’s for the broken hearts
 

 CHORUS
Feelin it strong
Feel it right away

(Use that pain inside ya, 
let go don’t fight the dance)
Just let it hurt!

Blinded by the Sun
Scared to see the day

(Feel that beat inside ya, 
let go don’t fight the dance)
Just let it hurt!

I, I feel it,
I, I, I feel it baby 

(Use that pain inside ya, 
let go don’t fight the dance)
Just let it hurt!

Uh huh you feel it
Uh huh you feel it baby 

(Feel that beat inside ya, 
let go don’t fight the dance)
Just let it hurt!

Don't fight the Dance - Single

Don't fight the Dance - Acapella

Singer, Songwriter, Dancer, Rico Davis has persevered despite hard times. Born and raised in 2x U.S. murder capital Camden, New Jersey, Rico’s source of escape was his love for writing music, dancing, and singing, for which he was frequently bullied. It was not until Rico was accepted into the Creative & Performing Arts High School of South Jersey that he received the community support and acceptance he deserved. It was during his 10th grade year as a member of their exclusive choir, that they won the esteemed International Days of Coro Competition in Verona Italy, competing against choirs from 30 participating countries. This experience led Rico to undoubtedly devote himself to his music passions. In June 2017, Young America Entertainment offered Davis a million dollar indie deal and in 2018 released his first single Do U Wanna from his bass heavy debut EP “The Golden Ratio: Volume One”. To date, volume one of this two part series has garnered almost a million combined streams across Spotify, Tidal, YouTube, and Apple.

Following the independent success and failures of his first release, Davis sought out healing during the recording process of his sophomore EP The Golden Ratio: Volume Two. “My first EP was a great learning experience. I had over $400,000 stolen from my deal and I had all types of politics interfering with my creative process. Although I’m proud of that era in my life, I vowed to never handle my art in that manner ever again. I want to make a positive contribution through my music – Provide a soundtrack to people’s lives when they want to celebrate, fall in love, or
when they need confirmation that they will get through hard times'' says Rico. Notable tracks off the EP are “Don’t fight the Dance'', the electrifying first single produced by Brooklyn's own, Kev Keyz, is a disco inspired dance banger that encourages us to face our emotional pain with vigor. Then there’s the vulnerable R&B jam “Still in Luv '' which finds the crooner promising to always be there for a former great love. 

Don’t miss a moment in this young music star’s thrilling journey! Be sure to keep your eyes and ears open for one of America's most promising independent recording artists.
