Beats introduce the track. Atmospheric chords rest in the background. Upon the vocals entering into the mix, things truly begin. Nostalgia enters into the lyrical flows; the way people look back on how they used to be. Conversations are had only with one’s future spouse for the outside world has become a darker, less certain place. The lyrics explain how this had not always been the case, but things changed so quickly and so dramatically that they no longer recognize what has happened. For, as children, people can have their concerns listened to, but as adults they find themselves always dismissed. With this present the disregard for so many becomes unbearable, the way the important things are tossed aside while focusing on the trivial, the unimportant moments in this life.
With “Wayback” Deezy Deos articulates exactly what is happening in the United States and worldwide, a fear that prevents society from improving upon itself. The song as a result of this theme, becomes positively timeless in tone.
