Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Knew you when we only cared about recess
Trading fruit snacks, talking like we knew what stress is
You clownin on my hairline in them desk pics
I said you’d be my best man, you said “bet, bet”
Middle school, hoodie on, sharing earbuds
You would roll your eyes when I’d flex in group hugs
Teachers thought we cousins, we ain’t say much
We just laughed, side by side on the same bus
High school hallway, you in them big hoops
I was all cap, frontin for my lil crew
You the only one that saw when I felt used
You said “stop actin tough, I know the real you”
[Chorus]
Jayson and Nyla, started off playin
Now my whole heart in the words I’m sayin
Best friend, day one, I ain’t even plannin
How we mess around and fell in love standin
Side by side, now we hand in hand
Used to say “that’s bro,” now you my whole plan
Jayson and Nyla, story we ain’t chasin
We just grew up and grew into what we facin
[Verse 2]
College dorm calls, you on that late shift
FaceTime freeze, but your laugh still my favorite
You date lames, I pretend that I’m cool
Tell you “you deserve better,” then I change the subject soon
Group chats lit, they say “y’all look perfect”
We reply with memes, like “nah, we ain’t worth it”
But I feel weird every time you say “love you, friend”
That last word hit different at the end
One night, back home, rain on the windshield
You on the aux, we parked in a cornfield
You said “if we both single in ten years
We should just get married,” then we both cheer
But my chest tight, I ain’t laugh right
Streetlight on your face, everything bright
I said “why we gotta wait like that?”
You stared silent, then you whispered back
[Chorus]
Jayson and Nyla, started off playin
Now my whole heart in the words I’m sayin
Best friend, day one, I ain’t even plannin
How we mess around and fell in love standin
Side by side, now we hand in hand
Used to say “that’s bro,” now you my whole plan
Jayson and Nyla, story we ain’t chasin
We just grew up and grew into what we facin
[Bridge]
You said “I been scared to lose what we got”
I said “I been scared of everything you not”
Like waking up one day and you don’t call first
Or you call sayin “guess what, I put him in a verse”
Nyla, you my diary, my rib, my whole past
Every inside joke, every late-night crash
If this don’t work, we both lose the same friend
But if this do work, that’s the best win
[Chorus]
[Chorus]

Style
rap, Warm, nostalgic hip-hop with male vocals; swung drums, soft piano loop, and subtle bass under a mid-tempo groove. Verses stay conversational and close-mic’d; hook brings in airy synth pads and stacked call-and-response ad-libs. Second half adds gentle strings and heavier snare to lift the emotion, then strip back to piano and bass for the final lines.
