INTRO
[INTRO — SLOW DRIFT, COWBELL FADES IN]
They said "eww" when they saw her face Black fur, black stripe, she owned her space A fancy rat — they didn't know What I had, what I'd let go
VERSE 1
[VERSE 1]
Cutie on my shoulder, tiny heartbeat fast Every day with her I prayed would always last Black mask face, that stripe down her back She was royalty, no cap, no lack Oreo was there but Oreo went first Left my Cutie alone, that was the worst So I became her world, her only one Her people, her pack, her moon and sun
HOOK
[HOOK — REPEAT 2X]
CUTIE, I'd do anything Just to feel you on my hand again They said eww — they never knew That kinda love — that kinda true Salid's still here, he holds the space But nothing fills that empty place CUTIE — black stripe, black face Forever mine, forever grace
VERSE 2
[VERSE 2]
Got Salid while you still were alive My bearded dragon — helped me survive Every time I look into his eyes I see the days, I hear your cries Playful girl, you'd run and spin Cutest thing that's ever been They laughed — I didn't care at all A rat's love hits different when you fall
BRIDGE
[BRIDGE — HALF-TIME, BASS DROPS LOW]
I still reach for you in the quiet dark Still feel the weight of your tiny spark No one gets it — that's fine, that's fine That bond between us — purely mine Salid watches, he knows your name The room still holds you, nothing's the same
HOOK (OUTRO)
[HOOK — FINAL, ECHO ON LAST LINE]
CUTIE, I'd do anything Just to feel you on my hand again They said eww — they never knew That kinda love — that kinda true Salid's still here, he holds the space But nothing fills that empty place CUTIE — black stripe, black face Forever mine... forever grace...
