Just a moment

You said, “Give me a moment,” then faded away

Like a cloud in the wind, gone by midday

I waited around, thought it’d be real quick

But hours turned days, now I’m feelin’ sick

Checked my phone, still no sign

Guess your word ain’t worth my time

If silence speaks, then yours was loud

Left me hangin’ in a thoughtless crowd

“Just a moment,” that’s what you said

But you vanished like a dream in bed

Now I’m done playin’ your delay

You go your path, I’ll walk my way

I gave you time, I gave you grace

Now all you got is second place

I reached out once, even twice

Still no answer, just bad advice

“Be patient,” you said with ease

But I ain’t waitin’ on empty pleas

You movin’ like the world’s on hold

While I sit here watchin’ cold

One reply, that’s all it took

But you rewrote the whole damn book

“Just a moment,” that’s what you said

But you vanished like a dream in bed

Now I’m done playin’ your delay

You go your path, I’ll walk my way

I gave you time, I gave you grace

Now all you got is second place

Now you show up, “Hey, been swamped”

But I’m not someone you can prompt

I’m movin’ on, I’m doin’ fine

No room left for your loose line

So keep your moments, keep your break

I won’t fall for the time you fake

I’m good with peace, I’m good alone

You lost the chance you once had known

“Just a moment,” that’s what you said

But I moved on, enough was said

No more waitin’, no more guess

I gave too much, you gave me less

I gave you time, I gave you grace

But now I’m gone without a trace
