Navigating the Fragile Terrain of Love and Uncertainty

In 'Us,' keshi delves into the complexities and uncertainties that often accompany romantic relationships. The song opens with a sense of impending doom, as the artist questions whether the sound they hear is the collapse of everything they've built together. This imagery of crashing down suggests a relationship on the brink of falling apart, a common theme in keshi's introspective and emotionally charged music.

The lyrics explore the idea of not knowing whether the relationship will survive. The lines 'Maybe we never make it through' and 'Say that you give another you' reflect the uncertainty and doubt that can plague a relationship. Keshi contemplates the possibility of faking emotions to see if they could become real, highlighting the desperation to hold onto something that might already be slipping away. This notion of 'faking it' to make it work underscores the fragile nature of their connection.

Keshi also touches on the idea that they might have been too focused on trivial matters, losing sight of what truly matters in their relationship. The repeated lines 'Maybe we’ve been a little too caught up in things that don’t matter as much as we thought' suggest a realization that their priorities might have been misplaced. Additionally, the song addresses the emotional barriers they've built to protect themselves from past hurts, which might have inadvertently caused more harm than good.

The song concludes with a poignant question: 'Is that the sound of us?' This line encapsulates the essence of the song, leaving listeners to ponder whether the relationship is worth saving or if it's already too late. Keshi's 'Us' is a raw and honest exploration of love, doubt, and the struggle to find clarity amidst emotional turmoil.
