(Intro – whispered falsetto)
Yeah…
She don’t even know.
Cowboy in the moonlight.
Ruby by her feet, I’m tryna keep her soul right.
---
(Verse 1 – low flow)
Five-one flame with a heart that’s bruised,
Laugh like heaven, but her eyes show truth.
Been through storms, I can feel those scars,
But she still shine brighter than the broken stars.
I ain’t here to fix, I’m here to be real,
Let her breathe slow, let her time heal.
Keep my hands gentle, my tone low-key,
I’m her peace in a world that won’t let her be.
---
(Hook – sung, falsetto + female harmony)
You don’t need a hero, just somebody real,
Cowboy steady, know how to chill.
Lay your head down, baby, breathe easy,
When you’re with me, you’re safe—believe me.
---
(Verse 2 – melodic rap)
Ruby dreamin’, lights dim low,
She smilin’ soft like she finally let go.
Past still knockin’, but she don’t open,
I hold her close, every word unspoken.
No crown, no cape, just a man that stays,
Guardin’ her peace in the simplest ways.
No judgment, just calm, that’s me,
Cowboy in the dark—A-minor key.
---
(Bridge – half-sung)
I won’t paint over pain, I’ll trace it with grace,
Proof of the power that lives in her face.
She been through hell, now she breathes free,
Under my arms, she safe to be.
---
(Final Hook – full harmony)
You don’t need a hero, just somebody real,
Cowboy steady, that’s the deal.
Lay your head down, baby, breathe easy,
When you’re with me, you’re safe—believe me.
(Outro – spoken whisper)
Yeah…
Ruby’s out cold, she finally dreamin’.
And so is her mama.
Safe tonight.
