Written by “Where Do We Go From Here” is a melancholy take on the idea of an average life. The song tells a story of a man wondering what else there is to their 80 years of life if he is not happy with what is promised. Explaining how he doesn’t feel connected to love or a life with a dead end career as he wonders whether it is worth living if he cant find satisfaction because he doesn’t fear the end. With a melody that encapsulates the emotions backed behind a beat that thumps at the heart of a listener who might relate, it is reminiscent of a Gnarls Barkley and Frank Ocean love child with the song’s funky beat and soft but emotional vocals.
The video details the narrative explained in the song. It tells its story with Jacobi.e playing the role of the character in the song. It starts in a dark train station where we see Jacobi.e waiting for his train on his way to his destination where we find “The Girl” in the distance as she seems to be longing for the love of the character. We follow Jacobi.e traveling through the city after he leaves her behind to find what he is looking for. However, in the end, it is revealed that what he seeks may be unattainable. It is a dark and emotional take on the life a person who wants what no man may be able to attain.
