The Statement (Distant Music Vocal Mix)

We were born with it

In the early hours of the night

We chase beats through ghetto streets

And find notes and measures like tomb raiders

Finding artifacts in archives

In search of that perfect gem

This determination is inside of us

We made it

We played it

We created it

This is why we do what we do

It's more than a lifestyle, it's an existence

I can see it

It's as if they can't survive without it

It's crazy

It's like a statement

It's like a statement

It keeps me up at night

So I kill my mental block with a spliff of prando

And an 18-year-old single malt

This is the language that connects us to you and you to us

Making the distance throughout the world closer

Shaping the interior of the grand design of sound

It's as if they can't survive without it

Like they can't live

Like they can't breathe

It's crazy

We can't live without it

We live for it

It could go down anywhere

At any time in any place

And as we pay homage to the scenes and times left behind

We don't forget the legacy

And do what we can to pass it on to a new generation

And that completion is a euphoric release of happiness

That most people don't understand

More than a lifestyle, it's an existence

It's as if they can't survive without it

Like they can't live

Can't breathe

It's crazy

It's like a statement
