Hope you hurt

Deep alto Black woman tone, raspy & raw, chest-heavy, full of pain, soul, and power — no soft or breathy pop vocals.

Yeah…

You said I was crazy.

But you ain’t seen crazy ‘til she heal and come back with silence.

You played me.

Now I wanna see you hurt like I did.

⸻

I hope she lie to you the way you lied to me

I hope her smile make you feel safe… then she leaves

I hope you call her phone and it just ring

I hope you feel what I felt when you did those things

I hope your heart drop when you see my name

On a screen you can’t unlock, drunk with pain

I hope you hear my voice in her moans

And realize… you really all alone

⸻

I hope you hurt — every damn night

I hope the karma hit you harder than mine

I hope your mama ask what happened to me

And you choke up, say, “I ruined everything”

I hope you cry like I cried

Hope it eat you alive

I gave my all — you gave me lies

Now I pray you feel it every time

⸻

I seen your new one… she look just like me

But she’ll never bleed for you like I did, believe

I held you down when you had nothin’

Now I’m up, and you see what you fumbled

You was out here actin’ single

I was out here bein’ loyal

Now I’m badder, colder, slicker

Hope your guilt get spoiled

⸻

I ain’t bitter — I’m honest

You ain’t a man — just a promise

I gave you grace and got haunted

Now I just want you to feel what I wanted

⸻

I hope you hurt — every damn night

I hope the karma hit you harder than mine

I hope your mama ask what happened to me

And you choke up, say, “I ruined everything”

I hope you cry like I cried

Hope it eat you alive

I gave my all — you gave me lies

Now I pray you feel it every time

⸻

You broke a good woman…

And I hope you remember that every time you try to sleep.

Hope you hurt.
