(Intro – Soft, Melodic)
Freshman year, walking through the halls,
Never thought I’d find love between these walls.
Books in my hand, but my heart’s in a fight,
First time away from home, first time it felt right…
⸻
(Verse 1 – Rap)
Met you in the dorm when the nights got cold,
Late night talks, secrets we both told.
Sitting on the steps while the world passed by,
We laughed at the stars, but I saw pain in your eyes.
Cafeteria dates, just pizza and fries,
We were broke but alive, chasing cheap highs.
Skipped a few classes just to lay in your bed,
Now I’m stuck with these memories that live in my head.
⸻
(Chorus – Melodic, Sad)
Freshman year love, it was all brand new,
I gave my heart away, I thought you did too.
But seasons change, and people do too,
Now I’m just a shadow still haunted by you.
⸻
(Verse 2 – Rap)
Remember that game day, painted up in red,
Screaming for the team but you kissed me instead.
Friends said we were perfect, I believed what they said,
Now I’m writing these lines ‘cause the love’s gone dead.
I walk through the quad, it’s like ghosts in the air,
Every corner on campus, I still see you there.
Library nights, when we studied ‘til two,
Funny thing is, I never learned to forget you.
⸻
(Chorus – Melodic, Sad)
Freshman year love, it was all brand new,
I gave my heart away, I thought you did too.
But seasons change, and people do too,
Now I’m just a shadow still haunted by you.
⸻
(Outro – Spoken Word / Rap)
So here’s to the first love, the one that broke me,
The lesson I learned, it was never that easy.
College gave me knowledge, but you gave me scars,
Freshman year love, now I’m rapping to the stars.
