Headsets & Heartbeats

Yeah… (yeah)

It’s crazy how life split us up…

But we still find our way back at night

Through a screen… through a mic…

(For real)

⸻

We livin’ different lives, but the pain feel the same

He chasin’ money, I been chasin’ peace in my brain

Used to be kids on the same damn street

Now it’s grown-up problems that we barely speak

He got a job that stress him out, I got scars I conceal

Life move fast, shit don’t come with a deal

Some nights I feel alone in a crowded room

Then the clock hit midnight, and I’m back with the truth

Headset on, I hear my brother like a lifeline

Even if the world changed, that bond still mine

We laugh in the lobby, but I know it’s deeper

We all fight demons, just hide ‘em from people

⸻

[Chorus – 0:56–1:20] (Melodic, Juice-style)

Late night, we reunite, yeah we still survive

Different roads, different storms, but we stay aligned

Say “fuck the world,” just for a little while

Through the screen, I still see my brother’s smile

We playin’ games, but we really tryna heal

Talkin’ ‘bout life, talkin’ ‘bout what we feel

Yeah, we far, but we never too gone

Midnight conversations keep us strong

⸻

[Verse 2 – 1:21–2:00] (Polo G storytelling)

He tell me he tired, feel like life on his back

I tell him I been broken, tryna find my way back

One friend talkin’ love, one friend talkin’ pain

Everybody carry somethin’ that they can’t explain

We joke, we roast, then it turn to real

“Bro, you good?” hit harder than steel

Sometimes the deepest shit come after a win

When the match ends and the silence begin

We talk ‘bout God, we talk ‘bout death

Talk ‘bout anxiety takin’ all our breath

And I realize, damn, this more than a game

It’s the only place we don’t gotta fake

⸻

[Chorus – 2:01–2:25] (Bigger, emotional)

Late night, we reunite, yeah we still survive

Different roads, different storms, but we stay aligned

Say “fuck the world,” just for a little while

Through the screen, I still see my brother’s smile

We playin’ games, but we really tryna heal

Talkin’ ‘bout life, talkin’ ‘bout what we feel

Yeah, we far, but we never too gone

Midnight conversations keep us strong

⸻

[Bridge – 2:26–2:45] (Juice WRLD-style reflection)

I know one day we might not have the time

Jobs, kids, growin’ older in our prime

But I’ll never forget them nights in the dark

Where my friends saved my soul with a simple remark

Life get cold… but the brotherhood warm

Even when we separated, we weather the storm

⸻

[Final Verse / Outro – 2:46–3:15] (Emotional close)

So here’s to the ones that still answer the call

Even when life got ‘em backed to the wall

We livin’ separate, but we still the same

Still chasin’ dreams, still fightin’ flames

And if I ever lose myself in the noise

I know where to go — back with the boys

Midnight lobby, yeah, that’s home to me

Through a controller, we found therapy

(Yeah…)

(Love y’all… for real.)
