Song: Pay For It
Notes: July Talk is back with a smooth track that floats through the air and speakers and into our ears. Through it’s smoothness through, Pay For It has a heaviness in the lyrics that will hit you like a ton of bricks when you listen, so be prepared. The video is packed with emotion and hard hits, adding weight to the song as well, making it even more special.
