🎵 Title: A’Jour
Genre: R&B / Trap-Soul / Hip-Hop Confessional
[Intro – Soft Spoken / Reverb Echo]
This one’s for you, AJ…
If love had a clock, mine broke when I met you.
Still ticking in rewind — kept à jour.
⸻
[Verse 1 – Storytelling Rap / Low Beat Fade In]
Back in seventh grade, you were my first sunrise,
Smile so bright, turned Portland skies to paradise.
You laughed, and the world went quiet,
Even thunder learned to keep it private.
Got your number like a prophecy signed,
Ink of your name tattooed in my mind.
Then I left, Oklahoma miles apart,
But distance don’t out-run a stubborn heart.
Years later, you pulled up to my scene,
Birthday lights and teenage dreams.
You slapped me once — I felt alive,
Even pain had rhythm when you stood by.
I chased you through the dark, rain pouring pure,
Every drop whispered, you’re still à jour.
⸻
[Chorus – Melodic High Vocals / Emotional Pull]
A’Jour — my love don’t fade with time,
You’re the verse that never left my rhyme.
Every heartbreak, I see your face in the blur,
You’re the wound and the cure — kept à jour.
[ad-libs: “Still you, still mine in my mind … à jour …”]
⸻
[Verse 2 – Reflective Flow / Trap Drums Layered]
Tried to write you out — pen refused the plea,
Every line bleeds “AJ & me.”
You’re my what-if, my could-have-been,
The verse that loops beneath my skin.
They say “grow up,” I say “grow through,”
But my growth still branches toward you.
Every girl I meet got a trace of your hue,
Every dream ends where I first saw you.
You’re my favorite song that never dropped,
My heart’s mixtape that never stopped.
Even now when the night feels unsure,
You hum in my veins — love stays à jour.
⸻
[Bridge – Vocal Build / Layered Reverb & Harmony]
Maybe you were never meant to stay,
Just to teach my soul how to pray.
But if God replayed that day in the rain,
I’d chase you again, through every pain.
[whisper ad-lib: “You were the lesson, and the reward.”]
⸻
[Chorus – Repeat w/ Ad-libs & Harmonies]
A’Jour — my love don’t fade with time,
You’re the verse that never left my rhyme.
Every heartbreak, I see your face in the blur,
You’re the wound and the cure — kept à jour.
A’Jour — I still see your eyes in dreams,
Every echo paints what love still means.
You’re the page that I’ll adore,
My forever — kept à jour.
⸻
[Chorus – Repeat Again Before Outro]
A’Jour — my love don’t fade with time,
You’re the verse that never left my rhyme.
Every heartbreak, I see your face in the blur,
You’re the wound and the cure — kept à jour.
A’Jour — I still see your eyes in dreams,
Every echo paints what love still means.
You’re the page that I’ll adore,
My forever — kept à jour.
⸻
[Outro – Soft Fade / Confessional Tone]
If this song ever finds you…
Know every word is the “what if” I never said.
You’re not my past — you’re the heartbeat that never stopped.
My story stays current… à jour.
[ad-lib echo: “A’Jour… still you… always you.”]
