He begins to tell an intriguing tale with a soulful vibe as the beat drops. As he starts to express himself you can sense the passion within his flow. Throughout the single he talks about the pros and cons of distance. He briefly tells us the creative process behind this all:
“The title of the song came from a place I’m sure we all know someway somehow. We’ve all been at a point of conflict with someone. The point that you’re physically together, but physical is where it ends.
Writing songs in regards to topics such as these actually come a little easier for me, I’m a lover boy at heart lol. Or should I say “emotional”. So this track was pulled from experiences I’ve had and trying to place those experiences in perspectives that both sides are understood. I want my listeners to relate which I know they will lol. I felt like the original song was very biased so I collaborated with an amazing artist and I’d say she did well in her portrayal of the opposing perspective.”
