Distraction

You ain’t love me…

You loved the silence I broke…

I see it now.

Yeah.

You hit my line when the nights got long

Told me I made you feel right, but it felt all wrong

I was the noise when your world went still

Now I know I was just your will to not feel

You ain't need me, you just needed a moment

Somebody to hold it while your real life was broken

I was that fix—quick sip, no bottle

Temporary high, no plan, no model

You dipped when the storm passed through

Now the sky’s all clear and there’s no sign of you

I was a vibe, not a home

Just a playlist on your phone

A break from bein’ alone

I was just your…

Distraction, yeah

Not love, not action

You ain’t want truth, just reaction

You ain’t see me, just a fraction

I was there… but not really

Felt that hit, now I’m feelin’ it clearly

I was only your distraction

Only your distraction

Yeah,

Told me I helped you breathe again

But I see now—you was usin’ me to pretend

Playin’ roles, I was cast in your drama

Whole time, I thought we was buildin’ karma

But nah, you was escapin’

Swervin’ the pain, detourin’ what you facin’

I was the cover, not the story

Never the sun, just weather when it's stormy

You said, “stay,” then vanished in the morning

Now I'm sittin’ with the echoes and the warnings

I gave time, gave truth, gave my all

You gave me nothin' but a fall

I was just your…

Distraction, yeah

Not love, not action

You ain’t want truth, just reaction

You ain’t see me, just a fraction

I was there… but not really

Felt that hit, now I’m feelin’ it clearly

I was only your distraction

Only your distraction

It’s wild how they come around broken,

Use you as the glue, then leave you open.

I wasn’t your peace—I was your silence filler.

Never your lover… just your dealer.
