We shot this music video in London, UK in spring 2019. Cut The Strings is about battling with too many options in life and therefore with procrastination - a thing most of us can relate to. www.dezhat.com

During the video shooting we met TrueMendous, an insanely talented rapper, who was straight performing on the street near London Bridge with just a boom box and a mic. In 2020 she was signed to the famous UK Rap label High Focus records. Please, check out her Youtube channel as well as HighFocusTV, she's got a couple of quality videos up here:

Lyrics:

End to end and in between
Snap backs, trainers, skinny jeans
Endless journey, means no ending
Transmission's pending, skip the theme
Light a fuse, raise a storm
Stand up tall and blow your horns
Everyone down there got to see
This is how we feel, look you have been warned
Damn serious, they're not hearing us
We stay fearless, you'll never see tears from us
Blurred vision, mind delirious
Focused on careers and determined to tear it up
Til we get to the point where we collide
With expectations that filled our empty lives
We can't put this all to a silent end
Ain't no time to spend in this environment

With all these chances coming my way
With all this pressure coming my way
More decisions, more excuses
More frustration, more confusion
More or less, sometimes less is more

I know you have a desire to flee
After all in this zone we're all tired and weak
Just keep it low key like you hired a thief
Set everything around us on fire and leave
No wonder we had to play this beat
We would never turn into what we were raised to be
Now we change the speed, pick it up again
Let me write my confessions til I drop the pen
It's hard to focus with those distractions
Missing in action, they wonder what's happening
If you stand up for yourselft that's not a bad thing
Before we come to stabbing, let's start asking questions
Quick and easy: I can't see the future
I don't care for rumours, it's later or sooner
I sign in full, let's ride the bull
We have to cut the strings they're trying to pull

With all these chances coming my way
With all this pressure coming my way
More decisions, more excuses
More frustration, more confusion
More or less, sometimes less is more

People you know this is true
All of the time it's about win or loose
Mostly we don't know which way to choose
So we stay caught in the loop
