[Verse 1] Drew, talk to me straight Got a ring in a box in my nightstand Got your hoodie on the back of my chair Got our pictures on my feed, on my fridge, in my hands But lately your eyes look distant Phone face down when it used to face up You say “it’s just work, don’t stress it” But my gut keeps pulling receipts on us You said “forever” on your front porch I memorized the way you said my name Now I’m tracing every word with a question Like, did you mean it, or was it just game [Chorus] Is this really true, Drew Is this really what you want with me When you talk about a home, about kids Is that the future that you really see Is marriage what you’re reaching for Or just a story that you tell on cue Look me dead in the eyes and answer Have you ever played me a fool, Drew [Verse 2] I’ve turned down numbers, turned off DMs Calling you “my man” like a promise I kept Told my mama you were different from the rest Put my past on read, put my doubts to rest But I’m tired of guessing your silence Every late reply turns loud in my head Every “I’m fine” feels like a fence Between the words you say and the words unsaid If you’re halfway out, don’t hold my hand If you’re halfway in, that’s still a lie I’d rather break now than break as your wife I’d rather cry once than cry all my life [Chorus] Is this really true, Drew Is this really what you want with me When you talk about a home, about kids Is that the future that you really see Is marriage what you’re reaching for Or just a story that you tell on cue Look me dead in the eyes and answer Have you ever played me a fool, Drew [Bridge] Tell me if you ever rehearsed your love Practiced lines in a bathroom mirror Did you ever say my name to someone else While you swore you were only mine, be clearer I can handle hard truth, can’t handle fake So if your heart’s not here, don’t make me stay Say it raw, say it rough, say it cruel if it’s real Just don’t leave me guessing my way through your shade [Chorus] Is this really true, Drew Is this really what you want with me When you talk about a home, about kids Is that the future that you really see Is marriage what you’re reaching for Or just a story that you tell on cue One last time, from the heart, no mask Have you ever played me a fool, Drew

rap, Moody, intimate rap-ballad over sparse piano and deep, warm bass. Tight, mid-tempo drums and subtle vocal chops in the hook. Verses close-mic and confessional; chorus widens with stacked female vocals and gentle reverb. Occasional ad-libs for emphasis, space left for vulnerable breaths and hesitations.

Is This Really True, Drew?
