With lyrics like “Wishing, waiting, for green grass that never grew / Ain’t that what lovers do?” and “Trying to get over you / But I hate it how you hate me now,” AKA Block captures the push and pull of lost love—those lingering feelings that remain even when the relationship has ended. His smooth, expressive vocals float effortlessly over a warm blend of reggae and R&B influences, delivering a performance that’s as raw as it is radiant.
