Story Behind The Song
It follows the introspective and soul-baring journey of a man seeking for answers.
Inspired by the unapologetically raw sounds of D'angelo's 'Black Messiah', the production choices were made with the vulnerability of this song in mind, embracing an acceptance of the imperfect.

Lyrics
Why don't you show me...
Do that one more time
Why don't you show me...
Too many crowded streets,
Can't find what I'm looking for
Still need you by my side
Daydreams, so alone
Tell me, show me
Oh tell me, show me the way (back to you)
Ooo (Just come with me I'll show you, I'll take you there)
Aah (I asked you to stay, but you said you're leaving)
Then you just broke it off
Was it something that I did
Did you know the plans I had for us
Nighttime, feel so alone
Tell me, show me
Oh tell me, show me the way (back to you)
Oooh (All the while, I thought we were meant to be)
Aaah (The first day we met, your smile is fixed in my memory)
I still go back to that place, I can feel the numbness going away
Tell me, show me
Oh tell me, show me the way...
