See you again

By Wiz Khalifa featuring Charlie Puth

Who Is Wiz Khalifa? (Jeamie)

Wiz Khalifa was born Cameron Jibril Thomaz on September 8, 1987 in Minot, North
Dakota. He moved around a lot as a kid because his father was in the military. At an
early age, Khalifa discovered his love for making music. He started writing lyrics
around the age of nine and began recording his own tracks a few years later.

Rapper Wiz Khalifa was only a kid when he started writing and recording songs. In
2011, he scored his first big hit with “Black and Yellow.”. In 2015 Khalifa enjoyed
huge success with the song “See You Again,” which he performed with Charlie Puth.

Lyrics explanation (Villon)

Charlie Puth begins the song with a chorus. He sings, "It's been a long day without
you, my friend / And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again." The songwriter
looks forward to being reunited with his friend (even though he doesn't explain how).
Charlie sings, "We've come a long way from where we began / Oh, I'll tell you all about
it when I see you again." The narrator and Paul Walker have been friends for a long
time and had many successes together. Those successes continue for the still-alive
narrator who looks forward to catching up with Walker.

When it's Wiz Khalifa's turn to rap, he focuses more on the good old times shared by
those who loved Paul walker. (Interestingly, no records show up that indicate Khalifa or
Puth knew Walker.) He sings, "Damn, who knew? / All the planes we flew / Good
things we've been through / That I'll be standing right here talking to you / 'Bout another
path." The song's narrator misses Walker and wishes that he could have him back.

The "[other] path" that Khalifa mentions is different from all their paths together; those
paths were on earth and were adventures they had while still alive, but now Walker has
gone elsewhere that Khalifa's narrator can't follow him to. 

The narrator sings, “But something told me that it wouldn’t last / Had to switch up /
Look at things different, see the bigger picture.” Khalifa is explaining that even though
things used to seem to be so good, they couldn’t stay that way forever. Life isn’t just
about successes–sometimes death happens and can bring things to a sudden halt.

Khalifa continues singing, “Those were the days / Hard work forever pays / Now I see
you in a better place.” While their time together was wonderful and the hard work, they
put in together will be remembered, Khalifa’s narrator likes to think of Walker as being
in an even better place. No matter how good their time was together, he wants Paul
Walker to be even happier now.

To finish his pre-chorus, Khalifa sings, “And now you gon’ be with me for the last
ride.” The memory of Paul Walker will stay with the narrator until he dies, reminding
him of the good times and supposedly encouraging him onward.

After Puth sings the chorus, Khalifa comes back for a bridge. This time it’s about
friendship and brotherhood and how those things are created. He sings, “First you both
go out your way / And the vibe is feeling strong.” For a friendship to begin, people need
to step out of what they would normally do for themselves and help someone else.
Khalifa sings that you can then feel the friendship growing.

He continues, “And what’s small turn to a friendship / A friendship turn to a bond.” The
friendship continues to evolve and becomes a bond. This lines up with the next line:
“And that bond will never be broken / The love will never get lost.” Their friendship
will never die.

The bridge finishes with “And that line is what we reach / So remember me when I’m
gone.” As a Genius.com user suggests, this last “line” could be a reference to the finish
lines from the Furious movies that Walker and his friends reach many times. They
accomplished something great together–they won their races–and now their bond is
forged tighter for having had to struggle together.

Charlie Puth finishes the song with an emotionally powerful “re-intro” that leads back
into the chorus: “So let the light guide your way, yeah / Hold every memory as you go /
And every road you take, will always lead you home, home.” Puth seems to be singing
from the usual narrator’s voice as he wishes Walker well on his next great journey–the
journey after death. He wants him to remember the good times and find a new home.
The guiding light will help him to arrive there safely.
