Prompt / Lyrics
--- --- (Intro – calm, low) I gave without countin’… now I count on myself Talk less now… every word hold weight ----- --------- ----- ----- (Verse 1) I seen “brothers” switch up over small things Promises fade when the pressure brings heat Gave ‘em my trust, they played with it Now I move solo, I don’t replay that shit Heard “we together” when it was easy to stand But when it got real, they slipped from the plan I learned respect ain’t the words that you say It’s what you do when it don’t go your way (Hook – heavy, controlled) I’m outta control… but I keep direction Lost some people, gained a new perception I’m outta control… but I don’t lose my head Even under pressure, I stand where I said --- --- --- (Verse 2 – deeper) Had nights I thought I was close to the edge Jaw locked tight, I was fightin’ for breath Learned how to smile when I wasn’t okay Say “I’m good” while I fade through the day I trust real slow, I watch how they move ‘Cause the deepest cuts come from people you choose Now I speak less, but I see it all clear Only move with the ones who stay when it’s real ---- ---- ---- (Bridge – calm, reflective) I don’t hate ‘em… I just learned the cost Some lessons stay even when you’re lost Now I build slow, brick by brick No fake love left, no more tricks --- --- (Final Hook – stronger delivery) I’m outta control… but I keep direction Lost some people, gained a new perception I’m outta control… but I don’t lose my head Even under pressure, I stand where I said
