[Intro]
You say you’re with it
You say you’re mine
Talk big on message
But show me in time (yeah)
[Verse 1]
You look like a promise
Ink on your wrist, teeth on your lip
Laugh too loud in the back of the Uber
Hands on my neck when you take that sip
You talk ‘bout “ride or die”
Cool words, baby, I heard that script
I don’t need captions, hearts, reactions
I need you shaking when the mask gets ripped
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me where you go
When the crowd fades out
When the high runs low
Do you stay, do you doubt?
Is it all for the story?
Or is this your truth?
Can you handle my damage
Like I handle you? (yeah)
[Chorus]
Are you really down
When the lights cut out?
When it’s just my scars
And your messed-up doubts?
Are you really down
Past the smoke and sound?
’Cause I don’t want touch
If your heart’s not bound
Are you down in your mind, girl?
Down in your soul, girl?
Down when it’s ugly, shaking, raw? (say it)
Are you down in your body?
Down in your mouth, in your vows?
Or just down ’til the night wears off?
[Verse 2 – Female Feature]
You think I’m just sparkle
Just that flash in your glass, that grin
But you ain’t seen the nights I cracked
Floor to my face, still dragged back in
I’ve stitched up boys like you
Gold on the neck, rust in the core
If I let you hold my worst
You gon’ bolt for the door or reach in for more?
I don’t fake my breathing
I don’t stage my moans
If I arch this back
It’s ‘cause you reached my bones
You want my truth, then brace
I got ghosts in lace
If I give you this body
Can you hold my disgrace? (yeah)
[Pre-Chorus – Both]
[soft, filtered beat, close-up vocals]
(Male) Tell me where you go
(Female) When my eyes turn red
(Male) When I shake, when I choke
(Female) When I cry in your bed
(Both) Is it just for the chaos?
Or is this our proof?
If I open my hunger
Will you open you?
[Chorus]
Are you really down
When the lights cut out?
When it’s just my scars
And your messed-up doubts?
Are you really down
Past the smoke and sound?
’Cause I don’t want touch
If your heart’s not bound
Are you down in your mind, boy?
Down in your soul, boy?
Down when I ugly-cry and claw? (oh)
Are you down in your body?
Down in your mouth, in your vows?
Or just down ’til the night wears off?
[Bridge – Call & Response]
(Male) Say “I’m down” if you mean it (yeah)
(Female) I’m down, I’m down, don’t tease it
(Male) Let me see it in your breathing
(Female) Pull me close, stop speaking
(Male) Are you down when I’m broken?
(Female) Are you down when I bruise?
(Both) If we’re signing with our bodies
That’s a binding truth
[Chorus – Final]
Are you really down
When the lights cut out?
When it’s just our fear
And our inside shouts?
Are you really down
Past the smoke and sound?
’Cause I’m all the way in
Or I’m not around
Are you down in your mind, love?
Down in your soul, love?
Down when we’re shaking, scared and raw? (so raw)
Are you down in your body?
Down in your mouth, in your vows?
If you are, then I’m giving you all (all of it)
