Early in his career, Texas dancer, choreographer, and singer Brian Puspos established himself as part of the hip-hop dance group SoReal Cru, which finished in second place on America's Best Dance Crew's second season in 2008. The Houston-born Filipino-American started dancing at a young age, surrounded by a family that also leaned toward entertainment. Later, he would develop his vocal abilities, focusing on smooth R&B delivery. On his online streaming channel, he performed acoustic R&B and rap covers set to his own choreography. Influenced by late '90s and early-2000s R&B like Dru Hill, Puspos uploaded his versions of hits by Bryson Tiller, Drake, Bruno Mars, and Anderson. Paak. Paak would later join Puspos in the studio, co-writing the track "Be Ready," which appeared on Puspos' debut EP, S.L.A.B. ("Slow Love and Bangin'"). The six-track effort arrived in early 2017, preceded by the slinky bedroom R&B single "Murder She Wrote." S.L.A.B. debuted at number 24 on the Billboard R&B Albums chart.
Glue
Brian Puspos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As the time pass, we fade
I'm tired of feeling lonely
The mistakes that I've made keep haunting you
Stuck inside your head like glue
Disarming you
Stuck inside your head like glue
I would give forever if we had the time
I'm already down from the weight of my sins (sins)
Baby I can never bury every lie
Break your heart again, girl I would rather die
I know if I stay or I go
I can't win (win)
Now when I'm not with you I get restless
Don't want to let it keep us apart
Now that I need ya, I cannot reach ya
Who can I speak to?
You act like you don't know me
As the time pass, we fade
I'm tired of feeling lonely
The mistakes that I've made keep haunting you
Stuck inside your head like glue
Disarming you
Stuck inside your head like glue
Ooh, baby
Ooh ooh, baby
Still stuck like glue
Ooh, baby
Ooh ooh, baby
Still stuck like glue
We might not ever get over this
We won't have nothing to show for it (yeah)
You try to build and I've broken it
But it's not your fault, and I know it burns (burns)
Should've played my part, but I never learn
Baby let's not waste the years (waste the years)
Tell me how to fix this (fix this)
Ocean with the tears you shouldn't have to swim in
Don't drown I need you
Still got the fire, don't you deny it
You act like you don't know me (you don't know me)
As the time pass, we fade (I'm faded baby)
I'm tired of feeling lonely (tired of feeling lonely, girl)
The mistakes that I've made (I've been crying every morning, girl)
Haunting you
Stuck inside your head like glue
Disarming you
Stuck inside your head like glue
Ooh, baby
Ooh ooh, baby
Still stuck like glue
Ooh, baby
Ooh ooh, baby
Still stuck like glue
The lyrics of Brian Puspos's song "Glue" explore the complex emotions of a failed relationship. The singer is haunted by the mistakes he made and the pain he caused, with his actions sticking to his ex-girlfriend like glue, and she cannot forget how he treated her. He expresses remorse for crossing the line and breaking her heart, repeatedly apologizing for his past behavior. He suggests that he would give anything to make amends, but knows that it might be too late. He longs for a second chance with her, knowing that he might not deserve it but also unable to let go of his feelings for her.
The chorus becomes a conversation between the two, where he realizes that time has passed, and they are now strangers, fading away from each other. He is disarmed by her and still feels that she is stuck in his head like glue, but he cannot bring himself to reach out to her. He is too restless and haunted by his sins. He is afraid of the fact that he cannot win either when he stays or leaves, as he is only left with remorse either way.
In summary, "Glue" is a song about the struggles of a relationship that did not work out, and the emotional weight it leaves behind. It shows the pain, regret, longing for a second chance, and the inability to let go of feelings, with the image of being stuck like glue. The song showcases the complexity of failed relationships and the difficulty of moving on.

@needcoffeeplz6463
Love the concept of this music vid using the simple symbolism of the 4 seasons. There's the fall out during fall (lol) followed by a harsh winter where we see Brian chasing Aja. They start to make up during spring and it cuts to the beach/summer, looking towards a brighter future. Good shit.

The lyrics to this song got me when it first dropped, but coupled with these visuals, it hits home even harder. Love isn't easy, but when you work at it, you can build something beautiful.
