The video is directed by Esianyo Kumodzi.

The music video takes place in the past. It takes place during slavery and the movement to end it. The video evokes powerful, deep, heavy and uncomfortable emotions.

The song talks about getting out of oppression and risking it all to enjoy freedom. This is despite if its an impossibility. The video perfectly conveys that message.

The video follows Ko-Jo Cue, Shaker and Kwesi Arthur planning as escape from their masters or oppressors. It showed the perils they faced just to enjoy freedom.

The Album “Pen and Paper” has recorded awesome trends on iTunes since its release last year (2017). Few weeks ago, it rose up to number 3 again in the top 20 albums in Africa.
