about

Breaking away from the chains that previously held her down, 'Electricity' sees Jess stepping into the next chapter of her life. This folk-pop anthem celebrates Jess honing her power and truth. Jess shared in the writing process, “I could feel myself upgrading in huge ways and stepping up into a much higher and freer version of myself”.

With music of such purity and sincerity, it’s hard to not immediately feel connected to Jess and her story. With all the commotion of modern life, it’s reassuring to know that 'Electricity' will always be there, for a blissful moment of escapism.

lyrics

Well I've been upgrading
And rearranging all my circuiting
Letting go of the patterns
That just so happen to longer serve me
Well I'm putting in the work
To analyse the hurt and make meaning of it
Knocking all of my walls down
In the ashes I am found
Unchained and I am free

Well I felt the calling from within
Then the storm came rolling in
And once I saw it there was no unseeing it

Is this what it means to be free
I feel the electricity
Charging through my bones
And igniting my soul
Is this what it means to be free?
To have the power to believe
I'm wild and untamed
I'm fireproof walking into the flames

I've been wrestling demons
Who convinced me I need them to be the best of me
Making peace with my shadows
And this shell that I’ve outgrown to be the best of me 

Well I felt the calling from within
And then the storm came rolling in
And once I saw it there was no unseeing it

Is this what it means to be free?
I feel the electricity
Charging through my bones
And igniting my soul
Is this what it means to be free?
To have the power to believe
I'm wild and untamed
I'm fireproof walking into the flames

I’m fireproof walking into the flames

Well I heard a call from high above,
"You are loved you are enough”
And once I knew it there was no unknowing it

Is this what it means to be free?
I feel the electricity
Charging through my bones
And igniting my soul
Is this what it means to be free?
To have the power to believe
I'm wild and untamed
I'm fireproof walking into…

Is this what it means to be free?
I feel the electricity
Charging through my bones
And igniting my soul
Is this what it means to be free?
To have the power to believe
I'm wild and untamed
I'm fireproof walking into the flames

I'm fireproof walking into the flames
I'm fireproof walking into the flames
