🎵 “Gets You”
[Intro – Spoken/Whispered Over Sparse Piano/Beat]
You think you're in control
But what you feed… grows.
And what you starve?
It dies in silence.
Even if it screams.
---
[Verse 1 – Rap]
Gave you my all, now you think it was free
Like my time, my love, my energy
But you gave back nothin’
Like I’m just supposed to bleed
While you hold all my pieces and act like you don’t see
You say you care, but don’t show it at all
Intentions mean nothin' when no actions follow
You say you're here, but you barely call
Guess I’m feeding a ghost, tryna fill a black hollow
---
[Chorus – Haunting, Melodic]
Whatever gets your eyes, gets you
No matter what you say or do
You can say you care, say you mean well
But time tells truths that words won’t tell
What you feed, that’s what will bloom
What you ignore, becomes your tomb
You're not helping if you’re barely there
Your absence is louder than all your care
---
[Verse 2 – Half-Rap, Half-Sung]
Two wolves inside, yeah, I know that tale
One is love, the other’s hell
And guess which one starts to prevail
The one I feed when I’m too frail
You say you’re helping, but where’s the proof?
Attention’s not passive, it's living truth
If you ain't in it, if you don't choose
Then you're just watchin’ while it comes unglued
You think you're helping by being near
But if you don’t invest, you disappear
You think you're good 'cause your thoughts are kind
But love with no effort is love that’s blind
---
[Bridge – Spoken Word Over Drop]
You don’t water the plant, it dies.
You don’t speak to the heart, it hides.
You can’t save a soul with half of yours
Can’t build a bridge from broken doors
Attention is the price you pay
For anything you want to stay
And when you give it all away
You better mean it.
Or walk away.
---
[Final Chorus – male vocals Full Vocal + Background Harmonies]
Whatever gets your eyes, gets you
Takes your thoughts, rewires truth
You can’t fake love, can’t fake care
Silence screams louder than any prayer
What you feed becomes your fate
What you starve learns how to wait
But it fades, yeah, it fades
'Til there's nothing left to save
---
[Outro – male vocals, Whispered]
You thought you were helping
But you were starving it
All along.
And it got you.
