Lyrics
[Intro]
[soft, echoing vocal]
We crossed a line
Still traced in grace
Two rings at home
One truth in this place
[Verse 1]
You take off your watch
Lay it face down on the dresser
Say you hate that ticking sound
(so do I)
You pour out that cheap red
On my grandma’s old table
We’re laughing a little too loud
To hide the why
Bible on my nightstand
You move it just a little to the side
Say, “He already knows our hearts”
I don’t know if that’s a prayer
Or a lie
[Chorus]
As we lay
Bodies tangled, souls afraid
We gon’ have to bow our heads
For what we did today
As we lay
Chasing heaven in this bed
Knowing when the morning comes
We go back to someone else instead
Oh, as we lay
As we lay
[Verse 2]
Your lipstick on my white tee
Like a promise that can’t stay
Your phone buzzing in your purse
Face down, you turn it all the way
You say you love the way I see you
Like you twenty-two again
But there’s a picture of your kids
Staring out your wallet when
You slip, say my name
Like it’s stitched into your last name
Tears in your eyelashes
You whisper, “We both to blame”
I touch the cross around your neck
You say, “Girl, His mercy big”
But I feel every heartbeat
Counting every little fib
[Chorus]
As we lay
Bodies tangled, souls afraid
We gon’ have to bow our heads
For what we did today
As we lay
Chasing heaven in this bed
Knowing when the morning comes
We go back to someone else instead
Oh, as we lay
As we lay
[Bridge – Rap]
Yeah
Wedding band on the nightstand, lookin’ like it’s watchin’ me
Two vows, two lives, one room, that’s a crowded secrecy
You say you never do this, said it twice, now we too deep
Sweat on your Sunday dress, mascara on my white sheets
We talkin’ ‘bout forgiveness, but we still undressin’
You quote a little scripture in the middle of confession
“This flesh is weak,” you say, “but my spirit still can change”
Then you kiss me like you tryna write my name across your pain
You got his last name, I got her last text
Readin’, “Baby, when you comin’?” while I’m kissin’ on your neck
Every breath is borrowed, every second we gon’ pay
If we can’t escape the judgment, least we honest ‘bout today (yeah)
[Chorus]
As we lay
Bodies tangled, souls afraid
We gon’ have to bow our heads
For what we did today
As we lay
Chasing heaven in this bed
Knowing when the morning comes
We go back to someone else instead
Oh, as we lay
As we lay
[Outro]
[soft, almost whispered]
Turn off the light
But we can’t turn off the truth
One night to lose ourselves
Then go live with what we choose
As we lay
(As we lay)
God, just hold us anyway
As we lay

Style
rap, Moody trap-R&B hybrid with female vocals and soft male rap; half-time drums and deep bass pulses under airy pads and churchy chords. Verses stay close and confessional, then the chorus lifts with stacked gospel-style harmonies and subtle choir swells. Ad-libs float like a call-and-response sermon, 808s hit harder under the rap to sharpen the edge before dropping back to intimate, reverb-kissed keys., female vocals, r&b, strong
