Written by Michael Jackson, Rodeny Jerkins, Fred Jerkins III and LaShawn Daniels

A little bit info about the song:
"Wait until the world hears "Xscape" "Michael Jackson declared to producer Rodney Jerkins. "MJ loved everything about it" recalls Jerkins. "The energy, the lyrics. it's kind of  a pprophetic song. Listen to the bridge. MJ says "When I go, this world won't bother me no more It's powerful" In another verse, Jackson sings of escaping  from the survelliance of "electric eyes" . Jerkins first presented on eraly demo without lyrics to Jackson in 1999 over the phone.  The pair continued to work on the track up until the release of "Invincible" (and even a little bit after). When Jerkins came in the studio to update the song over a decade later, he say,"it was really important for me to kind of like zone out and think as if Michael was siting right next to me - what would be telling me and what I would be telling him. I knew taht the times have changed sonically. I would've been saying to Michael, 'it's 808s now, the 808s are prevalent now, we gotta make sure they'e in it.' And I know Michael would say, "but make sure it stays funky. It's gotta be funky" And I would tell Michael live horns and livestrings are a feel-good element again in music today and the rhythm guitars. Michael loved guitars... When I was working on it - it sounds insane - but I was really trying to make sure i was kind of communicating with MJ, what I felt MJ would be telling me if he was right there working with me". Of the final result, Jerkins says, "When I listen too it, I'm proud. It feels like what we did yesterday, it feels like what we would do today, and it feels like it could still work tomorrow. That was always the goal with us".
