Lyrics
Reacquainted (2026)
[Intro]
[reverb-laden ambient synth, fretless bass enters]
[Verse 1]
Hello again, it's been some time
After the sad, not out of mind
Trepidation turned to reconnection
Mother to son, to son reflection
Let's get reacquainted now
Let's get reacquainted now
[Instrumental Break]
[ambient electric guitar lead melody, steady drums]
[Verse 2]
The artist appears, but loses the words
Sadness he exercised, the pain he detached
He cried for a reason, for family and father
A generation appears lost in fear and in anger
Let's get reacquainted now
Let's get reacquainted now
[Instrumental Break]
[ambient electric guitar lead melody, steady drums]
[Verse 3]
At seventeen, I found your core
In married rings, forgotten that he tore
But the passage of time brought the creeping of doubt
I've got to know the stranger in my mother's house
Let's get reacquainted now
Let's get reacquainted now
[Instrumental Break]
[ambient synth pads, electric guitar lead melody, steady drums]
[Verse 4]
Who would have guessed what it cost us each day
YWere we one of the best, did love fade away
And the souring effect from the passage of time
there's truth to be told by the black our blindness
[Verse 5]
I walk alone, even mother's beside me
I learned to be whole enough to stand to be free
I want to know more about my family, my life, myself
So here I am looking in your mother's eyes
Let's get reacquainted now
Let's get reacquainted now
[Outro]
[reverb-laden ambient synth, fretless bass ambietn lead guitar]
Let's get reacquainted now
Let's get reacquainted now
Let's get reacquainted now
Let's get reacquainted now
