Written by Raphael Saadiq with director Ryan Coogler and composer Ludwig Göransson, the song is performed in the film by Miles Caton as Sammie.
The song is a heartfelt confession from Sammie to his father.
As a child, he was given a Bible and expected to follow a religious path. Instead, he fell in love with the blues.
When he sings, "I lied to you," he's finally telling the truth about who he really is. The blues isn't just music to him—it's part of his soul and his family's history.
Miles Caton's powerful performance, mixed with soul, blues, and gospel, helped make this song one of the most unforgettable moments in Sinners.
Now comes the fun part.
This house music remix brings back the same emotions I felt when I first heard the song in the theater, but with an energetic beat that makes it impossible not to move.
It keeps the heart of the original while giving house music lovers something incredible to dance to.

HAYLA: The Dark Tour
is a massive North American headline concert tour by Grammy-nominated, British singer-songwriter HAYLA.
Brooklyn Steel
319 Frost Street
Brooklyn, NY 11222
Tickets: https://www.axs.com/events/
Known as the haunting, powerful voice behind major electronic dance hits like "Where You Are" with John Summit and "In My Arms" with Illenium, the tour marks a bold sonic and emotional shift for the artist.
Rather than sticking strictly to her high-energy EDM roots, she is performing a mix of those crowd-favorite collaborations alongside deeply personal, stripped-back new music from her debut solo album, DARK.
The tour represents a deliberate reinvention for the Liverpool-born artist. While her previous live sets relied heavily on festival club energy, The Dark Tour explores a more raw, vulnerable, and introspective sound. She playfully refers to this darker era as "sad bitch music"—songs that dive headfirst into heavy emotions like grief, heartbreak, and resilience, aiming to make listeners feel less alone in their struggles.
Housed in a former steel manufacturing plant at 319 Frost Street, it gets its name and distinct industrial aesthetic from the repurposed steel used throughout the building.
