Blending hypnotic bumps with flower petal lullabies, his sorrowful and emotional tracks feel like dancing with the lights off. Like crying and smiling at the same time. Perhaps a fitting manifesto of his music can be heard on the track “onoffonoff,” when Keshi sings “kiss me when you hurt me.” Emotional, heartfelt, and sincere, his bedroom blues will remain in your head for days/weeks to come.
SUMMER
Keshi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If we don't touch lips not an issue
I don't wanna talk 'bout nobody else
Know I said no love but I want to
Feel like summer and I don't wanna miss you
If we don't touch lips not an issue
I don't wanna talk 'bout nobody else
Know I said no love but I want to
One time
Maybe twice in
One night
It's alright we're
Both alone so
Go together
Kiss my wounds but
Not forever
Fuck around
Feel my heartbeat
Fallin' down
In the backseat
Fill me up 'cause I'm running on empty
And it's fine if we're only pretending
Three months is all we got
Try not to fall in love
Don't think I've had enough but I said it's fine by me
Feel like summer and I don't wanna miss you
If we don't touch lips not an issue
I don't wanna talk 'bout nobody else
Know I said no love but I want to
Feel like summer and I don't wanna miss you
If we don't touch lips not an issue
I don't wanna talk 'bout nobody else
Know I said no love but I want to
Said we goin' bye bye in a minute
I'ma chill on the south side, caught feelings
When the leaves turn, no more favors
Nice to meet you, catch you later, yeah
Three months is all we got
Try not to fall in love
Said I ain't had enough but I think that's fine by me
Feel like summer and I don't wanna miss you
If we don't touch lips not an issue
I don't wanna talk 'bout nobody else
Know I said no love but I want to
Feel like summer and I don't wanna miss you
If we don't touch lips not an issue
I don't wanna talk 'bout nobody else
Know I said no love but I want to
Kiss my wounds but not forever
Fill me up 'cause I'm running on empty
Kiss my wounds but not forever
And it's fine if we're only pretending
In the song "Summer" by Keshi, the artist takes us on a journey of summer love and fleeting moments. The song starts with Keshi confessing that he feels like summer and he doesn't want to miss his love interest. He says that even if they don't touch lips, it wouldn't be a problem. Keshi is adamant about not talking about anyone else and not wanting any love, but he still desires the attention of the person he's singing about.
In the song, Keshi mentions that he and his love interest are both alone, so they decide to go together. They share a moment of intimacy, knowing that it's not forever. Keshi knows that he's running on empty, but he's okay with pretending that this fling will last. He's aware that everything has an expiration date, and the time he has with the person he's singing about is limited to three months.
The song ends with Keshi saying that they must say goodbye soon, and he's caught feelings for this person. He knows that when summer is over, there will be no more favors, and he'll have to let go. Even though he knows their time is limited, he doesn't want to miss out on the fleeting moments of summer love.
Overall, "Summer" is a story of a passionate but temporary love. Keshi is honest about his feelings and knows that he can't escape his desire for this person. The song is both melancholic and hopeful in its portrayal of young love.

Soo..I used to work in as a casino receptionist and some random Korean guys went there. Little did they know that I am studying Korean.
One of them said: "she's pretty" and the other guy was like "she's freaking pretty". I smiled and my face was red af.
They were kinda suprised because I knew what they were saying and we talked about how I learn Korean and stuff. I literally fell for one of them...
They used to come there more often, one day he looked back at me, waved and smiled at me when they were leaving. I coulnd't bear that he didn't ask if I wanna go out and I really liked him.
So after that I wrote my Kakaotalk (message app) & a little note and waited if he comes back the next day. I was debating with myself "how do I give this to him?" "what if he rejects me?"
The next day, they came again. I remembered what kind of jacket he had. So after I let them in and they put their jackets into the locker room, I snucked in and put it in his pocket. Gosh, I was really praying for him not to throw it away or something because it was just a piece of paper (actually a heart origami lol).
After thirty minutes, I got a notification that he wants to add me! I was never so happy in my life. So we started to chat, went on a date the next day (it was Valentine's day too!). And we're dating since. We're both very happy but the distance is killing us sometimes :(
*Moral or the story?* Girls, please, ask guys out... Guys can be shy too! Don't wait for someone to make a move if you want something, go after it! Shoot your shot ♥

🇰🇷Intro in Korean :
그대는 내게 마치 계절 같다.
You are like a season to me
다가올수록 선명해지는 계절 같다.
You are like a season, getting clearer as it comes close to me
알아채지 못한 사이 가까워진 계절은 뚜렷하게 내 앞에 서 있다.
The season comes close to me without my noticing. And now it is in front of me.
손에 잡힐 듯 잡히지 않는,
You are out of reach for me.
손을 댈수록 사라지는 그대는 계절 같다.
You disappear as I reach out to you. You are like a season.

@TheSpriteStory
I met this girl and after hanging out for a while I started to catch feelings. She told me she had feelings too. However, we were both in weird transitional periods in life and weren’t ready for a relationship. So we decided to spend 48 hours together to let all of our feelings out before saying our goodbyes. She’s never bonfired and stargazed at a beach and I’ve never seen Waikiki’s Friday fireworks so we took each other. After the 48 hours were up we said our goodbyes and now our feelings only exist in the polaroids she took and the songs I shazammed from her.
@keanupetry8879
Wow, what a great little love story, and I think both of you are very mature, that you knew this wasn't the time for a relationship, and still you had a great time and enjoyed the last hours together, and went on good terms! That's very great to hear, you can keep her in mind always, and she definitely does think of you too
