Pulses

Karmin · Pulses [2014]

I wanna make your heart beat

I love it when it beats for me, yeah

I wanna make your heart beat

I love it when it beats for me, yeah



I wanna raise pulses

La chica with the most-est

Not in the mood for the average Josephs

Coming unglued, baby this is explosive

I wanna raise pulses



I'm coming for your rhythm, I'm here to wake you up

I wanna be your hero, I wanna shake the fluff

I be on that beating in your chest

Check a stethoscope run a few tests

Something you can measure doesn't make it better

Feeling weighed down did you lose your go-getter



You got a heart that's born with a beat

What's that now, you forget how to breathe?

I wanna get that thing runnin'



I wanna make your heart beat

I love it when it beats for me, yeah

I wanna make your heart beat

I love it when it beats for me, yeah



Oh I'mma make sure that you feel alive

I'mma make sure that you feel alive

I'mma make sure, I'mma make sure

I'mma make sure that you feel alive



I wanna raise pulses

La chica with the most-est

Not in the mood for the average Josephs

Coming unglued, baby this is explosive

I wanna raise pulses



They run you through the system, they blowing you the smoke

They try to suffocate, but think before you choke

You control the beating in your chest

You resuscitate now, cardiac arrest

World you can have it, take a couple planets

Trade up your half for the whole pomegranate



You got a heart that's born with a beat

What's that now, you forget how to breathe?

I wanna get the thing runnin'



I wanna make your heart beat

I love it when it beats for me, yeah

I wanna make your heart beat

I love it when it beats for me, yeah



Oh I'mma make sure that you feel alive

I'mma make sure that you feel alive

I'mma make sure, I'mma make sure

I'mma make sure that you feel alive



I wanna raise pulses

La chica with the most-est

Not in the mood for the average Josephs

Coming unglued, baby this is explosive

I wanna raise pulses



I'mma make sure that you feel alive

I'mma make sure that you feel alive

I'mma make sure, I'mma make sure

I'mma make sure that you feel alive



I wanna raise pulses

La chica with the most-est

Not in the mood for the average Josephs

Coming unglued, baby this is explosive

I wanna raise pulses [x2]

Pulses

Pulses serves as the title track for Karmin's 2014 sophomore album, marking a distinct shift in the duo's musical direction. Following the massive success of their debut single Brokenhearted, the band embraced a more polished, synth-pop sound that defined this era of their discography. The recording showcases the group's signature vocal harmonies layered over driving electronic production, reflecting their evolution from indie pop origins to a more mainstream radio-friendly style. As a centerpiece of the album, the song highlights the band's ability to craft infectious melodies while maintaining the emotional resonance that characterized their earlier work. This track remains a significant song in their catalogue, illustrating the sonic experimentation that helped solidify their presence in the modern pop landscape during the mid-2010s.
