The new song by Black Keys ,“I Forgot To Be Your Lover” , evokes to people out there that we sometimes forget about them. The line in lyrics in the song “And I’m sorry, I’m so sorry” touches on how we can be self absorbed resulting in us forgetting how much we care for each other . The song is a cover from the band’s upcoming new album unlike any other. The rendition of the song helps us realize that we are not forgotten.
