I miss, having you around
fuck your friends I'm not crazy
people always mistake me
When you used to pass by
I've asked why you had to go get high
getting with you then wavy
Are we ever gonna speak again
cause I know you know where I've been
do you ever wanna make amends
cause I'll keep far away, far away
Do you ever wanna speak again
cause you know we all got ourselves
do you ever wanna make amends
and get back together again, together again
stop over thinking, it's not that bad
just let it sink in, I want you back
coming around, coming around,
coming around, coming around
When you used to pass by
I've asked why you had to go get high
getting with you then wavy
now I stop you you're shady
Are we ever gonna speak again
cause I know you know where I've been
do you ever wanna make amends
cause I'll keep far away, far away
Do you ever wanna speak again
cause you know we all got ourselves
do you ever wanna make amends
and get back together again, together again
Get back together again,
together again yea
Are we ever gonna speak again
cause I know you know where I've been
do you ever wanna make amends
cause I'll keep far away, far away
Do you ever wanna speak again
can you forgive and forget my sins
do you ever wanna make amends
and get back together again, together again yea
Let's not pretend, this is the end yea
The lyrics to High Tyde's song "Speak" seem to be about a relationship that has ended, possibly due to the partner's drug use (the line "getting with you then wavy" implies that the partner was high during their relationship). The singer misses their former partner and wants to reconcile ("do you ever wanna make amends"). However, they also acknowledge that the relationship was not healthy ("you're shady," "people always mistake me"), which suggests that the breakup was necessary for their own well-being.
The repetition of the question "are we ever gonna speak again" throughout the song emphasizes the singer's feelings of uncertainty about the future of the relationship. It's clear that they still have strong feelings for their former partner, but they're not sure if it's worth trying to rekindle the relationship.
Overall, the song seems to be about the complicated emotions that come with a breakup, especially when the relationship ended due to external factors like drug use. The singer misses their former partner and wants to reconnect, but they also recognize that the relationship was not entirely healthy.
