(Emotional 90s R&B/Hip-Hop – Raw, Deep, and Painful)
(Intro – Soft piano, rain falling, deep breath, faint sound of a man crying, echoing in the background)
(Soft female vocal humming: "Mmm, oh-ohh… yeahh…")
*[Verse 1 – Deep, broken voice, raw emotion]
Look, it’s just natural, but I know it’s my fault
I broke your heart, now I’m the one who’s breaking (breaking… breaking… )
Everything I did just made it worse
And I don’t know, I don’t know, no, no… unless I force—
Myself to act like this to hold onto your love (yeahh…)
But I can't, I failed, I’m not enough (whimpering, voice cracking)
(Sound of tears falling, deep sigh, slight sniffles before next line.)
[Pre-Chorus – Soft beat builds, tension rising, voice shaking]
I’ve been struggling, fighting with my own self
I don’t know what choice I’ll make tomorrow, is it right?
I don’t have the words, slowly walking to you
But tomorrow, I swear, I will try to speak my truth
(Beat pauses—deep inhale, sound of knuckles cracking, man sighs.)
[Chorus – Big, emotional, vocal rise, male whining & echoes]
I’m sorry, I can’t, but I had limited time (time… time… )
From 12 to 3, but I’ll try, I’ll tryyy… (whimpers, shaky voice)
I won’t move, I’ll just stay, cuz the mistakes I made
This is my price, and now I gotta pay… (whispers: “I gotta pay…”)*
*(Echoing in the background: “I’m sorry… I’m sorry… I’m sorrryyy…”)
[Verse 2 – Voice tired, distant, man wiping tears]
I had to go to sleep, I’m pressuring myself tonight (sniffles, shaky breath)
I want this to end, don’t wanna start a fight (no, nooo… )
I’m blinded by these thoughts, don’t know what is right
But I’m so damn tired, so I put out the lights (sound of light switch clicking off, silence for a second…)
(Soft beat returns, heavy atmosphere, sound of deep exhale.)
[Bridge – Low, whispery, deep sadness, female background vocals]
(Soft female voice: “Don’t go… don’t go… please…”) *
I’ll go back to writing, writing words for the one I love (whispers: “For the one I love…")
I will cry my words, my mistakes spill out in blood (sniffles, deep sigh)
All I need is someone, someone I can hold (echo: “I can hold…”)
But I’m left in this darkness… all alone…
(Outro – Man softly crying, deep exhale, faint heartbeat slowing down… song fades into silence.)
