On “Cheat Time,” Alexa opens up about those intimate moments spent with someone you love. Throughout the fun-loving track, she cherishes being with this special person in her life, so much so that she wishes that they could suspend time altogether. Alexa sings, “Just for the night / Wish you and I / Could cheat time / Make it go a little slower / Keep that sun from getting lower / I’m just not ready to call it a night.” It’s such a pure and simple request, to make time stop and live in the beauty of a moment. Even though it’s impossible, it can still be worthwhile to try.
Telling us more about “Cheat Time,” Alexa explains,
“‘Cheat Time’ is a feel-good, upbeat song about being in love and wanting to stop time. Relationships have their ups and downs, and sometimes when it feels so right, you want to cheat time and stay in that moment forever.”
You can listen to “Cheat Time” on platforms like Apple Music and Spotify.
