5- Horeya - Wegz
Horeya addresses the struggles of young adulthood, highlighting issues like hard work and poverty. Amidst these challenges, the song explores a toxic relationship dynamic, where Wegz admits to abandoning his partner in hopes of being missed. It resonates with those overwhelmed by thoughts and ideas, capturing the complexity of navigating relationships in a turbulent phase of life.
