“talk,” the fourth track on always, is a fast-paced garage-inspired song that reflects on the stage of a relationship where communication is strayed, and a desperation to stay connected is formed.
Throughout the song, keshi expresses the neglected despair felt to letting go of a relationship that w...
talk Lyrics
[Intro]
Baby, I
Can't decide, I
Need your guidance, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
[Verse 1]
I got nobody left to lose
When I fall, I turn to you
And the world just got confusin'
And I think you need me too
You want a night out, fucked up, don't know where to find ya
Drive so fast and we runnin' red lights—igh—igh
Night out, fucked up, don't know where to find ya
Shit won't last, but I wanna make right
[Pre-Chorus]
So can we talk for a minute, talk for a minute?
So can we talk for a minute, talk for a minute?
[Chorus]
Maybe we don't talk enough, talk (Baby, I)
Maybe we don't talk enough, talk enough (Can't decide, I)
Maybe we don't talk enough, talk enough (Need your guidance)
Maybe we don't talk like we used to
Like we— like we used to
Talk enough, talk enough
Maybe we don't talk enough, talk enough
Maybe we don't talk enough, talk enough
Maybe we don't talk like we used to
Like we— like we used to
[Verse 2]
She got me runnin' 'round town, I surrender all of me
Oh my God, I'll give you anything you want
Maybe I forgot why you left in the first place
Way too many friends gettin' close on yo'—
Got me runnin' 'round town, I surrender all of me
(Got nobody left to lose)
Oh my God, I'll give you anything you want
(When I fall, I turn to you)
Maybe I forgot why you left in the first place
(And the world just got confusin')
Way too many friends gettin' close on yo' birthday
(And I think you need me too)
[Pre-Chorus]
So can we talk for a minute, talk for a minute?
So can we talk for a minute, talk for a minute?
[Chorus]
Maybe we don't talk enough, talk enough (Baby, I)
Maybe we don't talk enough, talk enough (Can't decide, I)
Maybe we don't talk enough, talk enough (Need your guidance)
Maybe we don't talk like we used to
Like we— like we used to
Talk enough, talk enough
Maybe we don't talk enough, talk enough
Maybe we don't talk enough, talk enough
Talk like we used to, like we— like we used to

How did the song come together?
I’d written the beginning lines: “baby I can’t decide, I need your guidance” and recorded it in the voice notes on my iPhone one day while sitting at the piano and knew that I’d started to draw on something special. But at the time, I was also a little tired of writing piano ballads. Once I’d record...
What inspired it?
Talk is like the bargaining phase of denial. I think we often pin change as a culprit for driving a wedge in between people, but I’d argue that the problems that arise tend to be more fundamental than that. Do we crave the familiarity in “like we used to”, or the naivety of just not knowing your sho...
What was the process of making the song like?
It was the song that I had the most fun writing, producing, and still the one that I go back to listen to the most, probably because it’s so different from what I’ve made in the past. The production is the most varied from the EP, with the grand piano, electric guitar, garage-esque beat, cinematic p...
