To pursue the option of starting their new album, Pacific Dub found themselves recording at a new location for this record, Castaway 7 Studios in Ventura, California.

Pacific Dub Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know, now I know
It's hard to see it's hard to breathe
when everything is such a sin
when two do, when two do
I wish that i could be like you
you were the way I do
When I couldn't find a way you were there to take me through
When I couldn't find a way you were there to take me through
How those were the days now I'm trying to be like you
The lyrics to Pacific Dub's song "Like You" speak of admiration and appreciation for someone who has been a source of strength and guidance. The singer begins by acknowledging the sacrifices made by this person, which he admits he cannot fully define or comprehend. However, he is aware of and grateful for what they have done and is striving to emulate their actions. It is suggested that this person has provided support during a difficult or sin-filled time in the singer’s life.
The chorus repeats the desire to be like this person because of the way they were there to help and guide the singer when he needed it the most. He recalls how “those were the days” and longs to return to that time or be able to offer the same type of support to someone else. The overall message is one of gratitude, respect, and a desire to learn and grow from the positive influence of the person being sung about.
