Not Her Sister

[Intro]

(Yeah... that look though)

(I see you)

​[Verse 1]

Cleaning up the lobby, just another day
Saw her slip on the wet floor, didn't look away
I let out a laugh, she gave me that glare
Slammed the exit door, left a curse in the air
Next few days, it became my favorite game
Finding new ways to make her scream my name
The way she gets mad, those sparks in her eyes
Was the highlight of my shift, no need for disguise.

​[Chorus]

But then a week went by, and the hall felt cold
A story left unfinished, a tale half-told
Where’d she go? My heart’s acting strange
I’m missing the girl who thought I was deranged
Yeah, I'm missing the fire, missing the noise
Lost in the silence, losing my poise.

​[Verse 2]

Cut to the campus, first day of the term
No janitor keys, no floor to confirm
I’m just a student now, looking real fly
When I see a guy stumble as he walks by
Books hitting the concrete, a mess on the ground
That same clumsy rhythm, that familiar sound
I rush to help him, I grab all his things
But when our eyes meet, my whole world swings.

​[Bridge]

Wait a minute... I know that face
The same sharp look, the same hidden grace
No wig, no makeup, just him in the light
But he looks like the girl I teased every night
My heart’s doing laps, I’m losing my cool
The baddest boy acting like a total fool.

​[Outro]

I’m staring too hard, I can’t even speak
My confidence is gone, my knees getting weak
I look at him close, feeling the stir
And I finally whisper: "Yo... you got a sister?"

(You got a sister, son?)

(‘Cause you look just like her...)
