Thundercat & Floating Points Fair Chance (floating Points Remix)
Thundercat came through with his latest offering, It Is What It Is earlier this year. Merging his penchant for psychedelia and jazz, his latest project was led by the single, “Fair Chance” which features Ty Dolla $ign and Lil B. Today, he offered a brand new remix for the single, handled by Floating Points who bring an electro-wave feel with a touch of groovy nostalgia to keep the party going.
“This song is about Mac [Miller],” Thundercat said in a press release about the original song. “When he passed it shook the ground for the artist community. Ty Dolla $ign’s a strong dude and when he heard the song he knew exactly what it should be. I was there when he recorded it. We talked about what it was, and he did what he felt was right to it, and I love what he did.”

Lyrics
I keep holdin’ you down (holdin’ you down)
Even though you’re not around (you’re not around)
So hard to get over it
I’ve tried to get under it
Stuck in between
It is what it is (is what it is)
Bye-bye, for now
I keep holdin’ you down (holdin’ you down)
You do with me, you do with me
It is what it is
‘Til it ain’t
Things will never be the same
Never be the same again
Everything’s so strange (strange)
It ain’t a game no more (game no more)
We were just gettin’ lifted
Yesterday, yesterday
Now we just reminiscin’
‘Bout yesterday, yesterday
Keep my head above water
My eyes gettin’ bigger
The world gettin’ smaller
I been gettin’ richer
Only made me crazy
Mama said I’m different
Since I was a baby
My emotions
Give me a sip of that potion
No, my heart is not broken
But I feel like it’s open
Please somebody do surgery
Tell the doctor come work with me
I keep lookin’ at my soul
Prayin’ that only God knows
And I’ve been workin’ nine to nine
Yeah
But they talk about it
But she always so fine
But who can say that
I would be the man of your dreams
I would do all that I can
And be all I can be
I keep holdin’ you down (holdin’ you down)
Even though you’re not around (you’re not around)
So hard to get over it
I’ve tried to get under it
Stuck in between
It is what it is (is what it is)
Bye-bye, for now
I keep holdin’ you down (holdin’ you down)
You do with me
You do with me
