1.) Movements ar… Read Full Bio ↴There are multiple artists with the name Movements:
1.) Movements are a post-hardcore band from Rancho Santa Margarita, California, formed in 2015.
Reflecting personal changes from a whirlwind five years, Movements realize the full scope of their storytelling, musicianship, and vision on their second full-length album, No Good Left To Give [Fearless Records]. Not only does the music address the emotional push-and-pull of relationships, but it also explores loss, love, mental health, and even intimacy through a prism of newfound clarity soundtracked by post-punk grit, alternative expanse, heartfelt spoken word, expansive rock, and subtle pop ambition. The Southern California quartet—Patrick Miranda [vocals], Ira George [guitar], Spencer York [drums], and Austin Cressey [bass]—quietly worked towards this moment since forming in 2015. Following the 2016 EP Outgrown Things, the group cemented a singular sound on their 2017 full-length debut, Feel Something. Eclipsing 40 million total streams by 2020, it immediately connected by way of “Daylilly” [11.1 million Spotify streams], “Full Circle” [6.1 million Spotify streams], and “Colorblind” [5.5 million Spotify streams]. Along the way, the four-piece received acclaim from Brooklyn Vegan, AXS, Rock Sound, Culture Collide, and more. In between packing shows worldwide, they joined forces with Alzheimer’s Association for the “Deadly Dull” video and covered “Losing My Religion” by R.E.M. for the Songs that Saved My Life compilation.

2.) Movements is a band from Jyväskylä, Finland. The band was formed about 3 years ago. For all the members music is a way of life. The first EP "first step" was released in 2005. A second 3-song EP ("northern lights") came out on Dec. 1st. 06.
3.) When in 1993 some musicians got together in Bielefeld to form a Reggae band they named the band MOVEMENTS. This name expressed their feeling of being part of the MOVEMENT OF JAH PEOPLE - the spiritual and mental exodus from Babylon. They were inspired by the uniting power of RASTAFARI, the movement that has made it’s way from the island of Jamaica to Europe ever since the seventies and is best known for it’s Reggae music. But they probably had no idea how much the name would be defining the band’s development - constantly moving and changing but always true to the message and the way of the Roots.
The love for reggae brought them together and due to the band’s international character it became their goal to bring together different people through their music. And in their opinion the best way to do this was Roots-Reggae which unites all people. So the musical orientation was clear from the beginning. Nevertheless the music picked up many different individual styles. It’s these ups and downs which show vividly in the music and make it unique. Since the early days of the Rasta pioneers like Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Burning Spear and several others much has changed in the world’s conception of Roots Reggae. It’s widely accepted and appreciated by it’s fans as the true original form of Reggae. Roots Reggae is timeless but not always mainstream.
MOVEMENTS convinced both fans and critics partly because of the cooperation with national and international artists. Names like Xavier Naidoo, D-Flame, Brothers Keepers and Söhne Mannheims speak for themselves.
Frontman is one of the bands founders, Uwe “Banton”, who is composer and song writer of most of the MOVEMENTS’ songs and determines the band’s musical direction. In 1999 he introduced the Jamaican singer Jah Meek to the band and since then they cooperate on stage and as song writers. Though the band’s members change periodically it doesn’t keep the MOVEMENTS from moving on.
The MOVEMENTS definitely have a message and they deliver it by using form and language of the authentic Reggae. But apart from songs in English their repertoire also includes German texts, both moving and religious at the same time. Long is the list of festivals and clubs where the band has played over the years. Three CDs have been released and another one is in progress. This time the musicians have seeked cooperation with other artists. And famous musicians such as Gentleman and Prezident Brown agreed to contribute to the MOVEMENTS new album.
4.) Movements is a former member of UTH. A gang based in South London, Lambeth, United Kingdom. Movements made his name with his trilogy of mixtapes ‘Twiss Up’ which featured major UK Drill artists, AM, Skengdo, V9, Stickz, Ard Adz, M Dargg etc.

Movements Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And this weight becomes too heavy to handle
But there's a solace in introspection
Because living in my mind is easier
Protection
I'm finding out that I don't have a lot to say to people these days
Yet I have so many thoughts running through my mind
So that my thoughts become the words I somehow can't find
They are lost and I can't find them
They are lost, but I am trying to find what is lost
But I'm buried in the weight of everything you said
I'll spend my days in solitude
I'll never leave this bed
And when you left, I told myself that I would carry on
But I'm struggling to find my way
Unsure of this path I walk, but I carry on
I carry on
I over think too much
And this weight becomes too heavy to handle
But there's a solace in introspection
Because living in my mind is easier
Protection
I over think too much
And this weight becomes too heavy to handle
But there's a solace in introspection
Because living in my mind is easier

The peace I find in my thoughts and introspection
I'm finding out that I don't have a lot to say to people these days
I am realizing that my inner thoughts are not easily expressed externally
Yet I have so many thoughts running through my mind
My mind is always active with ideas and musings
I am desperately longing to create something of substance
I crave the ability to translate my thoughts into something tangible and meaningful
So that my thoughts become the words I somehow can't find
My hope is that my creativity will be the outlet for my internal musings
They are lost and I can't find them
My thoughts are often misplaced and hard to articulate
But I'm buried in the weight of everything you said
The weight of someone's words has become overwhelming
I'll spend my days in solitude
I will seek comfort in being alone to manage my thoughts
I'll never leave this bed
The weight of my thoughts becomes too much to even get out of bed
And when you left, I told myself that I would carry on
After someone left in my life, I convinced myself that I would move forward
But I'm struggling to find my way
I am experiencing difficulty in navigating my life and my thoughts
Unsure of this path I walk, but I carry on
Despite my uncertainty, I will continue moving forward
