Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Ten years, dad ghosted, I grew up fast Empty chair at the table, you a name from the past Then I hear you married Kim, I’m like “Who’s that?” Some stranger in the photos, arm around you, laugh I been mad at your shadow, couldn’t say it aloud Wore the hurt like a hoodie, disappeared in the crowd But she kept a place for me, though we never spoke Cookin’ for a kid that never came, that’s hope [Chorus] Stepmom Kim, you don’t even know me yet But you saved me from a story I ain’t finished writing yet You held him up when he fell apart So I can lay this weight down, straight from the heart Stepmom Kim, I just wanna say Thank you for loving him that way Thank you for everything you did for him From a son in the dark, to a light through Kim [Verse 2] You picked up bottles, picked up pieces off the floor Stood in the doorway, said “He’s worth fightin’ for” You read my old letters, folded edges, stains Told him, “Call your boy, he’s got your last name” I was out here learning how to shave, how to drive You were teaching him how to stay alive You took the cussin’, the late nights, the spin So I just wanna look you in the face and begin [Chorus] Stepmom Kim, you don’t even know me yet But you saved me from a story I ain’t finished writing yet You held him up when he fell apart So I can lay this weight down, straight from the heart Stepmom Kim, I just wanna say Thank you for loving him that way Thank you for everything you did for him From a son in the dark, to a light through Kim [Bridge] [Beat drops to half-time, cleaner guitars] I ain’t met you, but I feel you in the cracks of time In the way he finally texted, said, “Son, you on my mind” If we ever share a coffee, awkward at that kitchen table I’ma say it clear and simple, as loud as I’m able (yeah) [Chorus] Stepmom Kim, you don’t even know me yet But you saved me from a story I ain’t finished writing yet You held him up when he fell apart So I can lay this weight down, straight from the heart Stepmom Kim, I just wanna say Thank you for loving him that way Thank you for everything you did for him From a son in the dark, to a light through Kim [Outro] (Yeah) thank you for everything For the quiet fights and the wedding ring If I ever call him “Dad” again It’s ‘cause you never gave up, Stepmom Kim (hey!)

rap, Crunchy rap-rock hybrid with male vocals; palm-muted guitars over a stomping midtempo groove in the verses, thick distorted power chords and gang vocals on the hook. Sparse bass and tom-heavy drums under talk-rap delivery, then choruses explode with soaring melodic lines, octave guitars, and airy pads. Bridge drops to half-time with filtered vocal, then final chorus comes back wider, with stacked harmonies and a shouted outro ad-lib., rap rock
