Lyrics
WAVES


imma have to come from off the bench 
play my fifty minute stretch baby 
you been having me up on the sideline 
when i’m 'Curry' on the press 

you never saw the best in me 
cause you was looking at the rest Baby
but when you got a king like me 
there is a couple things you got to stress

oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

if you feelin stress up in yo chest 
cause they forgot that you the best

imma have to take up off my shades so you can see i aint playin 
sometimes they seem to forget that you the only reason that they slayin Baby 
if you at you job and they promotin everybody who ain’t shit

Shaylin B - Magic

Definitely a song to inspire hope and real change as we move out of 2020 into 2021.
Inspired by events that celebrate new year's eve; it is a song about making choices and defining a new direction in life. This song encourages the listener to question themselves and take stock of what they have achieved and where they will go next as the 'last hour' of the old age ticks by and a new age is about to begin.

Lyrics:
As the last hour strikes, are you prepared about it?
To re-dedicate your life?
Here come more chances to change and more opportunities 
To grow and show, your light to a darkened world
Or as the last minutes pass you by
Are you prepared to still live without him?
Come and draw from the well that never runs dry
And you can claim a saviour now and break through the clouds

God has got the power (3 times)
To see you through

He's got holy ghost, tongue talking, cancer healing power
faith growing, mountain moving, demon binding power

God has got the power (3 times)
To see you through

Last Hour

Last Hour - Tracy DW

Emilio Ruffin ~ No Pressure

'Brilliantly mixing strong electronica elements with the warm and welcoming nature of Gospel, Tracy DW's brilliant genre-melding, synth-riddled gospel track "Blessed" is an intriguing concoction consisting of Tracy's beautifully angelic vocal presence, groove-heavy rhythms, and sonically exciting synth layers that gives listeners a particularly different kind of Gospel inspired
listening experience. One that is both wildly creative and wonderfully retro in nature.'     Andre Avanessian (Radio Airplay)

'Blessed' was originally written in 2019 to celebrate a milestone birthday for Tracy DW. She began recording the song but due to COVID it
was placed 'on the shelf' for more than a year. As the lockdown went by the song became a metaphor and anthem for the undying and unwavering faith that Tracy had in her ability to celebrate life and remain optimistic and resilient during a period of fear, instability and uncertainty. Tracy says 'The lyrics covey my gratitude for the simple things in life that we so often take for
granted, such as being able to sleep in a warm, comfortable bed at night and waking up in the morning to make a cup of coffee…and during lockdown, I made many cups of coffee!’

Tracy, from Watford UK, decided to take the first steps in beginning her own journey as an independent artist back in 2018, working with
Guess Productions in East London to produce her music. Her first two tracks ‘He’s Alive’ (January 2020) and ‘Last Hour’ (August 2020) received
airplay on the Caribbean Broadcast Network and requested airplay on Nam Radio’s Global station throughout 2021 and 2022. 'Blessed' has a different vibe to Tracy's previous releases and leads the listener in a new direction, one that introduces us all to Tracy's unique brand of the Christian and Gospel genres
