Stuck in the Past

Intro (spoken o low autotune, trap beat lento con 808s profundos)

Yeah... time wasted, still ain't started...

Watchin' you move on while I'm stuck here...

Damn...Verse 1 (16 bars, flow medio-rápido, rimas internas)

Wasted time, I ain't even pressed start

Movin' slow, just watchin', no heart

Wonder if it's worth the risk, takin' that leap

Or play it safe, can't tell love from the cheap

Friendship zone got me trapped in the deep

Heart racin', but my mouth stay sleep

You out here livin', smilin' with ease

I'm overthinkin' every word, beggin' please Pre-Chorus (más melódico, casi cantado)

I could tell you who you should chase

But I ain't brave enough to show my face

I'd rather hide in the dark, stay low

Than lose you forever, watch you go Chorus / Hook (repetitivo, trap-style, con ad-libs como "yeah", "damn")

How you make it look so easy? (so easy)

For me it's hell, can't even breathe, see? (can't breathe)

We different worlds, I know it's true

I'm arrogant, cold — you warm, you true

You kind as hell, I'm just rude, messed up

Lives changed for you, but mine still stuck

Tied to the past, chains on my soul

You broke free, kept rollin', reached your goal Verse 2 (más vulnerable, flow más lento al inicio)

Coward, yeah, worse than I thought I'd be

Sorry for freezin', never set it free

Swallowed my words, let 'em die inside

I know you feel nothin', but still I ride

This feelin' for you... what even is it?

Love? Nah, maybe just a glitch, admit it

Affection? Could be... temporary high

Forever? Hell no, I know it'll die Pre-Chorus (variación)

Confused with this care, makin' excuses

Scared to admit you got me losin'

Really like you... love? Doubt it heavy

Crush? Maybe... passin'? Feel it already

But damn, it's real, cut deep in my chest

Need help to move, put this shit to rest Chorus / Hook (repite con más energía, layered vocals)

How you make it look so easy? (easy, yeah)

For me it's war, bleedin' slowly (slowly)

We different... I know, I know

(Arrogant me, you social glow

You kind, I'm harsh, yeah that's the show)

Lives moved on, mine still froze

Stuck in the past, can't let go

You broke free... and advanced Bridge (cambio de tono: más spoken-rap, beat drop o minimal, emocional)

I text you just to feel like I miss you

But it's all cap, just foolin' myself, it's true

Don't wanna play games, don't wanna hurt you

But help me heal, God damn, I need you to

Love, crush, whatever this mess is called

Just know I ain't tryna see you fall

Don't wanna damage, don't wanna break

Help me let go... for both our sake Final Chorus (más intenso, build-up con hi-hats rápidos, ad-libs)

How you make it look so easy? (easy, damn)

For me it's impossible, feelin' queasy

We different... yeah, I see it clear

Still chained up... while you out here

Help me... help me let go too

Help me heal... pull me through

Yeah... help me... Outro (fade con repeticiones suaves, eco)

Help me...

Let go...

(Help me heal...)

Help me.
