You let a king walk away

I was givin’ you my time while you was huntin’ for a scene,

Tryin’ to live in every mirror, never seein’ what you mean.

I was dreamin’ of forever, you was chasin’ after thrill,

I was buildin’ somethin’ solid, you was scared of bein’ still.

You said you wanted real, but you flinched when I was true,

Guess a woman who loves chaos don’t know what to do with you.

I held you when you cracked, I was steady through your storms,

While you kept testin’ love like it had to be deformed.

You wanted loud affection, I was quiet but I stayed,

You wanted fireworks, I was diamonds in the shade.

Funny how you missed it, always lookin’ for more,

When you had a man who’d die for you standin’ at your door.

You traded in a future for a temporary rush,

Now you drownin’ in the silence when the party’s never enough.

I gave you loyalty, you gave me doubt,

Tried to make me feel small when I was the one holdin’ you down.

You love the attention, not the man, let’s be clear,

You don’t miss me, you just hate that I ain’t here.

Now you scrollin’ through my life like it’s somethin’ you lost,

While I’m busy stackin’ wins and you still countin’ the cost.

You had a king in your hands, you let him walk away,

Now you sleep next to strangers tryin’ to feel okay.

You out here chasin’ shadows, I’m livin’ in the light,

Turned heartbreak into power, turned your love into goodbye.

I was teachin’ you trust, you was playin’ with lies,

Now your reflection don’t even recognize your eyes.

You said I was too good, too calm, too real,

But peace don’t feel exciting when you addicted to feel.

So you left for the noise and the fast little love,

Now you stuck in regret while I’m risin’ above.

I don’t hate you, I just finally see,

You didn’t want a man, you wanted somebody to bleed.

You wanted to be chased, not chosen, not held,

So you burned every bridge just to feel somethin’ else.

I was ready for forever, you was scared of the truth,

Now you miss what you had but it’s no longer you.

You let a king walk away, yeah, remember that night,

When you chose your pride over doin’ me right.

Now my name hits your chest like a ghost in your sleep,

While I’m livin’ my dreams and you stuck in the deep.

I turned all that pain into somethin’ that shines,

You turned real love into wasted time.

So keep tellin’ your friends that you’re doin’ just fine,

But your eyes tell the truth every single time.

You didn’t lose a man, you lost your best bet,

Now all you got left is a heart full of regret.

Yeah… you didn’t see what you had,

And now a king is gone.
