- [Sam] We tend to get fickle at times.
I think you need to just lay your cards on the table and kind of be open about it.
And… Be less concerned about offending the other person…
Because if you're in a relationship…
You know you have to be open.
- [Sam] No we were talking about…
The single that you've got coming out.
Now what was the title called again?
- [GSoul] Oh. ‘Can Love Be Fair?’
- [Sam] ‘Can Love Be Fair’...
What are your thoughts on the topic?
- [GSoul] It's an open question. I don't know.
Can it be fair?
Is it supposed to be fair?
Is anything supposed to be fair?
You know…
Is anything fair you know?
So it could be about romantic relationship.
It could be about friendship.
It could be about working relationships.
You know I just wanted to use the word fair.
And the first verse is about you know this… person.
Who's constantly giving and giving and giving and…
The second verse is you know the other person who's kind of…
- [Dave] Taking taking taking.
- [GSoul] Yeah and telling the other person,
“Why you constantly just giving giving giving away?”
- [Sam] That is…
I think that's something most people have probably dealt with.
To some extent.
Maybe not in a…
Yeah like you said in different relationships.
I've had it in a relationship with a friend.
Where you know I had to call a friend—
I'd be calling that friend up all the time.
Saying, “Let's go out. Let's go out. Let's go out.”
And after a while I was like, “This **** never calls me back.”
He's never calling me up and saying, “Let's go out.”
- [Dave] Bro I was busy.
- [Sam] And I'm like this son of a ****.
I'm like, “You know what…
I'm not gonna call him up anymore.”
- [Dave] I hate when that happens too.
- [Dave] I hate when I put all the effort into our friendship and they don't…
- [Sam] It's like a two-way street.
It's like you know what nah…
- [Dave] I'm petty though I'll unfollow them on Instagram.
- [Sam] This was in the days before Instagram.
This was in the day before mobile phones.
It was like calling up on the home phone and it's like yeah no…
- [Dave] I hate when that happens though.
- [Sam] Relationships are…
Relationships are difficult though and I think…
You know unless…
When you get into relationships people tend to bottle up their emotions at times.
And don't get open and we tend to get fickle at times.
I think you need to just lay your cards on the table and and kind of be open about it.
And… Be less concerned about offending the other person.
Because if you're in a relationship…
You know you have to be open.
And those lines of communication have to be open.
Even if you know that they could be offended by it…
You know you have to be willing to say, “Look this is how I feel.”
- [Dave] Not everyone's good at that though.
- [Sam] No no no.
- [Dave] I've been very honest…
Brutally honest with a friend before and they
have not taken it the way I intended them to take it.
Some people are not very good at taking criticism.
- [Sam] Most people aren't.
- [Dave] Most people aren't.
And it sucks but sometimes you have to tread lightly when it comes to certain people.
- [Sam] Yeah and but that and…
And I guess that's the way relationships work.
Sometimes you have to gauge that as well
You know you have to kind of…
Some people you can be very blunt with.
Some people you have to kind of be a little bit soft—
To have a bit of a softer touch with.
But you can't just kind of ignore it completely.
Just because that person can't take criticism.
You can't just…
- [Dave] Oh I say it.
- [Sam] 'm not going to talk to them about it at all.
- [Dave] I'm up front yeah.
- [Sam] Well I know that.
- [Dave] Yeah.
- [Sam] Saul knows that.
