Release Info
Kapa is proud to deliver a package of Rocking mixes for your winter boxes - live and direct from Christos Kedras.
In early 2008, Christos was faced with a difficult decision
He struggled in frustration, torn between his heart, his head, and his fears.
Eventually he realized that there is never an answer to such questions.
There is only the conscious decision to make a certain choice and walk a certain path.
Going to Prevail is about finding the power to make such groundless decisions.
It is about finding the inner strength to choose hope over despair.
The track's driving rock edge reflects the accumulated energy of the initial frustration.
Its power also becomes a source of courage and determination.
The track works as a catalyst, transforming the powerful energy of anger into hope.
A bunch of talented remixers have given the track a new spin.
KCRW's Raul Campos gives us his darkness prevails remix.
Raul builds on the original's gloomy textures and creates
a very current deep & dark dance floor stomper.
EOTL serve up a slice of sublime deepness
revolving around the optimism of the melody's main key.
It is further augment with vocal snippets in their properly named hope mix.
Tiago D'Errico the guitarist on the piece gives us a Rocking Radio Mix,
with a clear Pop/Rock focus, rich textures and full vocals.

Lyrics
what is to do
when my desires are torn between me and you
what can I say
if my love is strong yet I still want to run away
I try to leave
but I feel the sadness that you fight to conceal
I try to stay
but my anger & sorrow simply won't go away
I want to try
but I've done my best and my might is now dry
I want to trust
but I fear you are not going to help the joy last
this isn't my fault
then why am I trying to right the wrong
I need to move on
but something inside just keeps me hanging on
where can I hide
the feelings that I fail to leave behind
to empty my heart
create the room for something new to start
I need to be strong
despite the sense that my decision is wrong
I need to have faith
believe that love is going to prevail
[ believe that love is going to prevail ]
come take my hand
erase the scars that I could never mend
help me go on
lead me to paths I am afraid to walk alone
stand by my side
propel me from the darkness into the light
help lift the veil
believe that love is going to prevail
[ believe just believe that love is going to prevail ]
