Michael Jackson

Xscape

Everywhere I turn, no matter where I look
The systems in control, it's all ran by the book
I've got to get away so I can clear my mind,
Xscape is what I need,
Away from electric eyes

No matter where I am, I see my face around
They then ask on my name, and push from town to town
Don't have a place to run, but there's no need to hide,
I've got to, find a place,
So I won't hide away

Xscape, got to get away from a system lose in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships that's gone away
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

Sometimes I feel like
I've gotta get away

I tried to share my life with someone I could love
But games and money is all she ever thought of
How could that be my fault when she gambled and lost?
I'm tired of silly games,
It's time to make a change

Why is it I can't do whatever I want to?
Went in my personal life and I don't live for you
So don't you try to tell me what is right for me
You be concerned about you,
I can do what I want to

Xscape,got to get away from a system lose in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships that's gone away

Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

Xscape,got to get away from a system lose in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships that's gone away
Xscape,the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this
man
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

When I go, this problem world won't bother me no more

Xscape

Xscape, got to get away from a system lose in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships that's gone away
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man

Xscape, got to get away from a system lose in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships that's gone away
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

Xscape, got to get away
Xscape, the pressure that I face
Xscape, the man with the pen
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me
Xscape

Xscape,
Got to get away
Xscape,
The pressure that I face
Xscape,
The man with the pen
Xscape,

Xscape from world cruelty | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/9/09

Whoaaa! The beat, sound effects, everything rocks! I especially love Mj's voice in the choral background vocals! He can sing with little digital sound editing, it's evident in most of his pop & rnb songs in invincible album like Butterflies & Heartbreaker. Also in his adlibs in Remember The Time, some people thought it was digitally edited but he actually simply rolls his tongue.
And this time, unlike his other songs that speaks for justice against cruelty with a purpose to fight & defend himself, this song has reduced the level of anger & bitterness. He just says he got to escape!

I miss MJ so much!


Bold music making | Reviewer: Hector | 11/8/07

This song is bold music making. I just feel bad that I don't have an original copy of the song. I can't listen in detail to the keyboard sounds in the middle-high range. I love the short, picked notes of the keyboard/synth up high in the chorus, extra funky! I know there is picked guitar but I can't get it clearly on this "smelly" download.
I think this one is a "killer song", Michael, to put it in your wording. It includes so many things that we know are you and that makes the song rich: the intro in prison, the racing car, your daughter's voice in the middle(?), your heavy breathing doing some serious dance moves, the cluster-chord background voices in the chorus, etc. What's new to me is your use of sampling and electronic sounds: very tasteful in this song. This song would have stood at the importance of "Rock My World" in Invincible but, I feel, would not have fit properly with the rest of the album if that's what the plan was. I would leave that solo bass line in sextuplets off. Somehow, I think that belongs in the 80's or 90's but not now anymore. I would leave "the birds" (picked keyboard/synth notes in the chorus) alone in that measure, instead: make us feel we're levitating, flying!
I think the "snare" (beat 2 and 4) is just beyond anything you have ever done before! That sound would make a piece of concrete stand up and dance! Just awesome!
Please, this song has got to be released in its entirety and full sound. I can only hope it is included in your next album. Thanks.
