was one of those songs and it deals with the stage of the relationship where we question whether we actually want this or not.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further diving into the tune, Nikhil said, &#8220;This new track delves into the thoughts of how breaking up seems convenient but staying together is hard. If you\u2019re looking for one reason to not be with someone, a thousand reasons present themselves. At its heart, a relationship only really survives because both people truly want it to.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Because Because Because - Nikhil D&#039;souza (Official Lyric Video)\" width=\"702\" height=\"395\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3g_XKYYzxHw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Nikhil D&#8217;souza &#8211; Because Because Because<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:1px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nikhil has been strumming the guitar and singing ever since he was twelve and has made a huge name for himself in the Indian music scene.
