Lyrics
[INTRO — low voice, beat building]
You met me when freedom still felt unfamiliar,
Fresh out, whole world lookin’ different in the mirror.
Had a future in my head, but I ain’t know me yet—
You met a man becoming, then remember what you met.
[VERSE 1 — FAST]
Came home with a plan, put my hands into construction,
Tryna turn a fucked-up past into productive.
Then I met Nora, started building something bigger,
Wanted walls around a future, not a cell around a sinner.
Found a house, saw a home, saw the rooms we could change,
Saw us standing in the kitchen while we’re painting every frame.
But you left before the renovation ever got started,
Funny how I fixed the house while everything departed.
You said I should’ve followed—I said how was I to know?
I ain’t ever learned to read what somebody wouldn’t show.
And yeah, today I wish I’d packed my shit and went,
But back then that little house was what security meant.
First place I could breathe, first place I could grow,
After years of being told where I could and couldn’t go.
So when you said “come with me,” I couldn’t understand—
I was finally somewhere safe enough to learn to be a man.
[HOOK — BIG, melodic/aggressive]
YOU MET ME AT MY WORST—
DON’T CONFUSE THAT WITH MY WORTH.
I was learning how to live
while I was loving you through hurt.
You knew me before I knew me,
that’s the blessing and the curse.
I gave you what I had—
YOU MET ME AT MY WORST.
[VERSE 2 — DOUBLE TIME]
I got quiet—not because I didn’t give a damn,
I could see you had your battles, didn’t wanna add to them.
So I swallowed every sentence, let the pressure sit inside,
Thought that giving you some space was how a partner stood beside.
But silence ain’t communication, now I understand,
Can’t call ourselves a team if I don’t tell you where I stand.
I was busy defending me instead of defending us,
Then opinions from the outside started getting way too much.
Everybody got a window into shit that should’ve stayed
Between the only two damn people who were living it each day.
I tolerated disrespect because I didn’t want a fight,
Now I’ll calmly draw the line instead of disappearing for the night.
That’s growth—I don’t need rage to prove that I’ve got pride,
I found freedom in myself that ain’t dependent on outside.
[BRIDGE — drums drop, vocal forward]
I still love you.
That ain’t weakness, that’s the truth.
Still in love with who you are,
while I’m learning who I grew into.
You were my partner—
I can admit where I went wrong.
Sometimes love survives inside you
even when the home’s gone.
[FINAL HOOK — FULL BEAT]
YOU MET ME AT MY WORST—
BUT I LOVED YOU WITH MY BEST.
You met me halfway broken,
I was building what came next.
If our roads ever cross again,
you won’t recognize me first—
You’ll finally meet the man
I was becoming at my worst.
[OUTRO — beat strips down]
Maybe people gotta lose you
before they meet the newer you.
You knew me before I knew myself.
If you meet me now—
you meet me free.
