This Is What It Looks Like (Kingston Festival Dub)
Live festival reggae and rocksteady fusion with Jamaican crowd energy, claps on the off-beat, and call-and-response chants. Ultra-syncopated one-drop drums, deep bouncing bassline, skanking rhythm guitars, and bright island horns. Reverb-heavy dub-style delays, analog grit, and extreme vinyl scratching and turntablism woven into the groove. Female lead vocal with strong Jamaican accent phrasing blended with polished K-pop melodicism and stacked harmonies. Warm tape-saturated live sound, echo-drenched ad-libs, and a spiritual, Rastafarian-influenced uplift in the choruses.

Lyrics
Shattah pieces on di floor
Dat mirror cyaan hold me no more
All di tings weh haunt mi mind
Lead mi ‘way and tek mi sight
Now I can see clear
All a di tings I used to fear
Old version a me
Wash ‘way like di tide from di sea
[Chorus]
Mi voice still shaky
But mi heart hold tight
Hold on to truth
inna dis yard tonight
Mi step into di light
Leave di dark behind
Eyes wide open, mi cyaan stay blind
This is what it look like, yeah
Why mi keep di lies dem up inna mi head
And forget di truth weh could set mi free instead
Mi step into di light
After all dis time
Nuh more shame inside
This is what it look like, yeah
[Verse 2]
Mi try fi run, but
Mi drop rock bottom
All a mi problem
Mi try fi solve dem
Right when mi tink say
Mi cyaan come back
Neva in mi wildest dream mi see dat
You reach fi me
And you build back all weh mi lack
[Post-Chorus]

But mi heart hold tight
Hold on to truth

Mi step into di light
Leave di dark behind
Eyes wide open, mi cyaan stay blind
This is what it look like, yeah
Why mi keep di lies dem up inna mi head
And forget di truth weh could set mi free instead
Mi step into di light
After all dis time
Nuh more shame inside
