Low battery.

Low battery… low energy
Mixed signals… still textin’ me.

She don’t miss me, she just miss not bein’ alone.

Soon as it get quiet, that’s when she reach for her phone.


I don’t miss her, I just miss the distraction.

Silence too loud, so I fall back in old habits —

that’s when I pick up the phone.

Low  battery. 

You see my name in the likes when we not together.
You send me angry texts ’cause your friends told you whatever.
Meanwhile your “best friend” in my inbox heavy.
Funny how the loudest ones move messy.

Low energy. 

We don’t talk, but we don’t stop
We both single… but we not
Say it’s over — but it’s not.

Low battery. 

I see you light up when you check your phone
It’s not me… 
cause I’m standing next to you.


You post a trap, I see the eye emojis in your comments
Different guys watchin’, you just act like you don’t want it.

Why we keep doin’ this?
Say we done but we back in it.
Same fight, different night.
Same goodbye that we don’t finish.

We say space but we don’t take it.
Say it’s love but we don’t claim it.
Both tired but we don’t change it.
Low battery… can’t save it.


This the generation we live in
Screens bright, but souls dimmin’.

Everybody “fine” on the timeline.
But hurt bad in real time. 

We’re not fine. 

We look happy on the ‘Gram, but we distant in person.

Postin’ “blessed” but we stressed in the night.
Filters on the pics, but can’t filter real life.

You say you good, got the glow in your selfies,
But I know that silence hit different when you by yourself.

We post love, we post laughs, we post couple goals.
Then argue in the car with our phones on do-not-disturb mode.

Everybody winnin’ on the timeline scroll.
But behind closed doors, everybody feel alone.

Low battery. 

Fakin’ on social media.
Everybody watchin’, nobody know.

Everybody watchin’, nobody know.

We don’t go together, but we go together
Say it’s over, but we don’t ever
Low energy for this toxic mess…
Still pick up when you call, whatever

Low battery.

Dark indie, soul, male.
