about

‘Motive’ explores the complexities of a relationship where two people aren’t aligned in their intentions, encapsulating how living in a perpetual state of uncertainty can push two people away from each other, often to the point of no return. The song dives into feelings of nostalgia, despair,
disappointment and eventually self-empowerment, allowing both darkness and light to co-exist.

The pair pull you into a world of sonic delicacy, intertwining Beso Palma’s intricate production with Anieszka’s lush, cloud-like vocals to create a seamless blend of R&B, neo-soul and electronic music.

lyrics

VERSE 2 (Anieszka)
How you gonna focus on me?
Now that I adore ya
And you got me to yourself
I was everything that you needed,
A motive from the start
Just a one up for yourself,
I was a story you could tell
Now you’re affecting my health
Now you’re affecting my health
Never want to be too much
But wanna know that I’m enough
If you can’t see my worth
Then it’s something you don’t deserve
And I owe that to myself
When you lost me I could tell
By your side was where I fell

CHORUS (Anieszka)

Don’t think I need ya need ya need ya need ya
Don’t think I need ya need ya need ya need ya
Don’t treat me like an option
Don’t treat me like an option

VERSE 2 (Beso Palma)
I was tryna focus on me
Maybe I ignored ya
When I had you to myself
I thought that you were just what I needed
A fixture for my heart
While I protected myself
(Anieszka & Beso Palma)
I took cover, kept distance as you saw me indifferent
Good intention, was my motive from the start

CHORUS (Anieszka & Beso Palma)
Don’t think I need ya need ya need ya need ya
Don’t think I need ya need ya need ya need ya
Don’t treat me like an option
Don’t treat me like an option

x2

OUTRO (Anieszka)
Cause I don’t need you, I don’t need you anymore
