What
if we could pause time and stay in a certain moment forever? Talented artist
Tyra Chantey has recently released her new single, ‘Stay In The Moment,’ so we
sat down with her to chat about her new release, what it means to her, and her
upcoming plans.
Q:
Congrats on the release of your second single. Can you tell us more about how
‘Stay In The Moment’ came to be and what it means to you?
A: The
lyrical content of SITM is pretty straightforward – it’s about being in the
moment. About how you never know if when you make it to your goals, whether
that feeling is going to exceed whatever you’re experiencing now. You
don’t know what the best moments in your life are going to be. It might just be
being with your family one evening. The overhyped moments are not always what
they seem to be. I’m on a journey right now where I’m trying to share my music
with as many people as possible, but at the same time, I want to enjoy the
journey. That’s what SITM is about.
The song came together super quickly; it was
kind of like a freestyle if you listen to the lyrics. I knew I wanted to mix
that poppy sound of the instrumental with a soulful vocal style. The way that
I’m singing it is kind of low register, but when you hear the instrumental, you
think that it’s something that’s going to go up. Writing a pop song that stays
in the same register, that never really has that euphoric break, is something I
haven't done before. I’m really inspired by artists like Nina Simone and Tracy
Chapman, who can put a soulful twist on something poppy.(EPIDEMIC SOUND

Verse 2
You woke up from a
while
Haven’t seen you
smile since December
Ripped your heart,
got a brand new one
Since you got lost in
November
See it in your eyes
when we leave for the night
Way to many
heartbreaks still on your mind
Let the flame burn
down for a while
Let the frame blur
out for a while...
Hook 2
Stay in the moment
Stay in the moment

Smell all the roses
Smell all the roses
with me
Just give you a
moment to
Stay in the moment

Give you a moment to

Outro
I know you hiding
behind that pretty brown face
I see you climbing
been tryna find your own way
Last see you smiling
since we were stuck in LA
Babe, come jump the roof top and come watch the skyline with me.
