This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Thick is how I got my whole click to sound
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know this click can't be touched
If your click ain't thick you ain't fucking with us
We on a world tour with Midnight Mauraders and such
I'm at the table like the Godfather smoking a dutch
Controlling the bucks, I roll with enough
Niggas that'll blow in the clutch
Not only holding we bust
The fat raps, so pass that and let me hit it
Got me gassed, black, skins was mad fat
She flipped it, Bronx is equipped with, niggas that'll rip shit
Studios get blown from D&D to Mystic
With this shit, I'll bomb the nation from a distance
The jewels, gotta have patience plus persistance
We rock glass like Rockford
Waiting for bottles to pop in the condo bottles get rocked
To sum up my career from bottom to top
Now we in the thick of it, and you don't stop
Thick is how I got my whole click to sound
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know this click can't be touched
If your click ain't thick you ain't fucking with us
Check it, I be puffing blunts in the house sexing stunts on the couch
This year, a lot of frauds might get punched in the mouth
For when your wife see me, she don't know how to act
So don't be mad when I blow out her back, for real
Your whole team a bunch of pooh-puts who made a few bucks
Date a few sluts then y'all start running your lips a little too much
My whole crew wild, thick as new now
We go to clubs, hit the bar, and trip 2 thou
Other MC's ain't got a chance at all
Cause Big L Corleone is to advanced for y'all
Chicks can never walk away cause they like the sex
Flamboyant is the label that writes the checks
I'm a pimped-out nigga that walks with canes
Talk with slang, ball from New York to Spain
Haters E-N-V-Y me B-I-G
Cause I'm V.I.P. til I D-I-E, what?
Thick is how I got my whole click to sound
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know this click can't be touched
If your click ain't thick you ain't fucking with us
Thick is how I got my whole click to sound
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know this click can't be touched
If your click ain't thick you ain't fucking with us
I spark light with the pen, drink O.J. with gin
Rock Tims with my laces untied
Cruise in the city on 17 inches, ride past wenches
Past the projects, thugs chilling on the benches
Profile low as if I had an ill vengence
Life on earth is just a death sentence
Fuck it, alpha omega, arm lega lega arm
With cold steel if you pose a threat to my neighbor
D-I double G I-N, I-N T-H-E Crates, lock shit times ten
Dive in, become part of a cliche, that art of an expert
Your honor from New York to Florida
Chicks rush the corridors, chicks try to star with us
Besides rolling thick my whole crew be marvelous
Thick is how I got my whole click to sound
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know this click can't be touched
If your click ain't thick you ain't fucking with us
Thick is how I got my whole click to sound
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know this click can't be touched
If your click ain't thick you ain't fucking with us
Thick is how we gets down from town to town
If you didn't know this click can't be touched
If your click ain't thick you ain't fucking with us

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
