Pull Away - CEE, Po3, Notion

Verse 1: Notion

Yeah, Notion, Cee, Po3

You know, I know, I just wanna let you know, we’re together here,

put that shit away, man

Sometimes you need to unplug just to feel the love

Yeah I swear it’s more heavenly than clouds above

There’s too much dumbin' down in our own homes

And you wonder why they call that shit a smartphone

Man, it’s called a cell phone for a reason

Restrict you in the moment, make you see it through a screen and

Entice you for likes and shares, nobody fuckin' cares

What’s real, what’s under there, I’m right fuckin' here

Speak to me, put it down, show decency

I know you’ve had the most obscene of weeks, yo

That’s why I love a northern escape, to feel the space

Sun on my face, birds singin', amazing grace

I’m just statin' my lessons, call it progression

Yo I’m livin' in love and I’m payin' attention

Yo, it’s been a day, yo it’s been a week

But girl it feel amazing when we speak, it’s been a long

Hook: Andrew Cameron

Why am I missin' out

On the time that you spend beside me?

Look at me and get it out

Ain’t no good that can come from hiding

I know it can get you down

When you spend your whole life trying

But

Don’t pull away

Don’t pull away

Don’t pull away

Verse 2: Po3

I got a story for you quickly, hope your fire is bright

About the world I came to know before the prime of my life

So gather round a minute, ain’t no kumbaya for tonight

See I’m just hoping to provide some insights

As a little boy I spent my time how I liked (that's true)

And this was back before the internet and prior to Skype, fool

You’d never lose a phone when it’s on the wall, the wires guide you

And we still fought with fists and not gunfire or knife… shoot

Nowadays it’s like we ain’t even living

Information so available our brains are forgetting

How to formulate a thought, no landing pages and no images

And we wonder why were slaves to a system then, God damn man

Put ya phones down, turn off the TV

Ya kids are right in front of you like, «how you can’t see me?!»

Your e-friends in need of mass deleting

And you don’t wanna shackle your own ankles for the sake of them, believe me

Verse 3: Cee

Yeah, I need y’all to do me a favour right quick

Put your phones down, just for a second

Take a deep breath

Look at the world around you, and listen, just for a minute

Just for a minute

See, I’m a businessman

You never see me without my equipment in hand

And time is money, my nemesis be the minute hand

The hustle finish, booth bound where I spit a grand, homie I’m a different man

And while my lifestyle depending on the internet

I understand the ramifications of being infinite-

-ly logged on the networks and caught up in my headphones

Where real life’s a Like and the wifi is never dead zoned

Shit, so I be staring out my window

And watch the day pass, the world turning while I’m indoors

A vicious cycle, see I gotta keep the lights on

So we at the crib workin' ‘til we finish, then the light’s gone

Damn, at least I recognize the folly in it

I’m cognizant that time is finite so we gotta live it

In that spirit, we got plans and we got dreams

And so our head is in the game so we can pull away eventually, yeah

Bridge: Cee

All we needin' is to pull away

And understand before tomorrow, there’s a new today

Look around you, the world is so astounding, so

Put your phone away, it’s only me and you today, ay

And all we needin' is to pull away
