Prompt / Lyrics
INTRO (Atmospheric – House + Afro fusion) (Soft pads + distant steel drum echoes + filtered kick pulse) (Vocal chop repeating: “closer… closer… closer…”) (Spoken / melodic whisper) Yeah… Don’t let me drift too far… VERSE 1 (R&B → Afro bounce switch) (Kick + rim + soft bassline enters) You draw me closer… But I feel in the way (in the way now) Used to feel like sunshine Now it’s cloudy all day I used to run to your love Now I run away (run away, yeah) Tracing every promise We ain’t ever say (Afro bounce tail) Too many nights, I dey overthink Heart too loud, I no fit sleep You say “stay” but your actions weak Now we dancing on broken beats PRE-CHORUS (Melodic lift – house build) (Chords rise, hi-hats open) Don’t let me fade now… I’m still right here… Say what you mean now… Make it real clear… CHORUS (House + Afro + R&B fusion — BIG + REPEATABLE) (4-on-the-floor kick + bass + steel drums accent) Draw me closer (closer) I’m fighting to stay (to stay) Help me help us I’m losing my faith You were my warm sky Now it’s all gray (all gray) Draw me closer Before I fade… Before I break… (Drop groove — repeat hook chant) Closer… closer… don’t let me fade… VERSE 2 (Rap + melodic blend) (Beat strips slightly — deeper bass, trap hats layered with Afro percussion) I talk in circles, you hear what you fear Try to get close but I disappear You reach for me, I’m switching gears Too many ghosts been living here Yeah… I seen how it ends, I been through the pain Love turn cold, hearts rearranged Still got a key but I’m guarding the door ‘Cause loving you feel like risking it all (Afro cadence switch) I dey hold back but I still want more Body dey here but my mind at war Say you for stay when it’s not secure Or you go leave like the ones before? PRE-CHORUS (Repeat with intensity) Don’t let me fade now… I’m still right here… If I open up now… Would you stay near… CHORUS (Full energy — layered vocals) Draw me closer (closer) I’m fighting to stay Help me help us I’m losing my faith You were my warm sky Now it’s all gray Draw me closer Before I fade… Before I break… BRIDGE (Breakdown — steel drums + ambient) (Beat drops → just pads + steel drums + sub bass pulse) If I let go of the past… Would you meet me halfway… If I open these scars… Would you stay… Would you stay… (Soft chant builds) Stay… stay… stay… RAP BREAK (Emotional peak — minimal beat) Say you choose me over ego Not just love me when it’s easy Hold me down when I’m unstable Not just there when you need me I ain’t perfect, I admit it But I’m trying, can you feel it If we break, can we rebuild it Or we done and just conceal it? FINAL CHORUS (Anthem — FULL fusion) (Everything in: house kick, Afro percussion, bass, steel drums, harmonies) Draw me closer (closer!) I’m fighting to stay Help me help us Teach my heart it’s safe You were my warm sky Now through the rain Draw me closer Through cloudy days Help me stay… Help us stay… OUTRO (Fade — house loop) (Loop: “closer… closer…”
