He admits his partner is persuasive and understands “I wouldn’t make it.” By not making it, Vasquez simply can’t resist.  We’ve all experienced that feeling. Bringing this gorgeous track to life is a warm, sensual backdrop and high-flying, passionate vocals by Vasquez.

Bitmoji ImageThings have developed rapidly between them. “And I know this all began so quick / And your touch has left me so lovesick,” Vasquez sings in the second verse, adding, “And I know I got you here right now / So, I’ll keep, keep you around.” It leads the chorus where Jared is fully dedicated and believes in their bond:

“Keep me awake

And never lose faith in what we create

Don’t mistake

I’ll never let go and this shit won’t break

… We’re never gonna sleep so keep me awake.”

The bridge adds to the ‘midnight heat’ you might say: “Know my body, like a map / Taking over, now that’s a fact / Cross the cosmos, and ride along / Cuz if I touch you it’s not gon’ take too long.” Jared Vasquez titillates something fierce throughout Keep Me Awake.  If you’re single, listening makes you want to get boo’d up and have your back blown out 🤫 😈.
