As I've grown, all of those binary ways of thinking have more or less been shattered. I was taught to believe that there was always a right or wrong and beyond that, that there was a heaven and hell waiting for us after we die.

Khalid sings first, asking in the pre-chorus, "Have I seen you in another life?" with his almost impossibly persuasive baritone. Majid Jordanīack with their first collaboration since 2019's outstanding " Caught Up," Khalid and Majid Jordan propose a slow(ish) jam of the "I'm so into you" variety.
