The song, power was recorded seven years ago back in
2007.
Alicia
Keys celebrates Martin Luther King, Jr. Day by dropping a song called
"Power". The track arrived via AKVault, the R&B singer's official
website that she has been using to share her unreleased songs, photos and more.
“This is one of my favorite unreleased songs,” the
pianist wrote on her website about the tune. “I wrote this song one afternoon
in LA when I was feeling deep desolation; desperation even … I’d just lost my
grandmother and I felt so guilty about it, so hurt and full of emptiness. I’d
run away to LA to clear my head and to not have to be in NY with all my
memories.”
On the track, Keys sings:
“Grandma, used to say nothing before its time. Used to
say that world would be mine so I should just have faith. She showed me
everything in this life is for free. Change is one thing that is guaranteed, so
I should just keep pace.”
