UK emcee Parallax knows a thing or two about "Sacrifice" and gives listeners his candid take on the subject. This time he recruits the help of producer Certi Beats who laces him with a thumping and gloomy soundscape comprised of lush textures, a haunting vocal sample and punchy drums to match. Here, Parallax runs through the ups and downs of life as he tries to balance the ever-shifting scales. Lines like "I would not step in the ring my G If I wasn't ready to box (Stay Alert)/These men are just flexing their egos, I'm thinking that their heads gonna pop" display his candour and readiness to go for his goals as he continues to strive for a better tomorrow.
The accompanying video was shot by Honey Jd who uses a mix of performance shots of Parralax against the vast cityscape to drive home the story of resilience and the power of having a strict work ethic.
