(Genre: cinematic dark R&B × melodic trap — 72 BPM, deep 808s, ambient synths, emotional vocals + smooth rap verse)
(Mood: late-night luxury, heartbreak, fame, inner conflict between love and control)
⸻
[Intro – sung (emotional tone)]
(soft falsetto-style voice, wide reverb, echo ad-libs)
Ooh, ooh — yeah, yeah (yeah)
Midnight dripping from my veins (mmm)
Still taste your name in the rain (oh)
(beat fades in slowly — deep bass rises, low synth hum)
⸻
[Verse 1 – sung]
(haunting tone, minimal drums)
We burned too bright to last the night,
our heaven turned to smoke and light.
Your touch still glows beneath my skin,
love like sin — I’d fall again.
(808 enters softly)
Now I’m in this high-rise view,
city lights but none like you.
Every mirror shows your ghost,
and I’m the lie I love the most.
⸻
[Hook – sung]
(beat drops slightly, strong reverb, soft delay)
Who gon’ pray for me? (yeah)
Take my pain from me? (woo)
Save my soul for me — I’m not who I used to be.
(back echo: “not me… not me…”)
If I fall for you again (you again)
Will it kill what’s left within?
Love was war, and I didn’t win — yeah (yeah, yeah).
⸻
[Verse 2 – rap]
(low vocal tone, tight flow, melodic trap rhythm)
Backseat stories, city in chrome,
I lost my peace when I lost my home.
All these faces look the same,
smiles for the money, not the name.
(hi-hats fade in — slow trap groove)
Now I’m sipping truth in a glass of pain,
heart on fire, but I hide the flame.
Everybody wants your shine when you break that chain,
but nobody feels your rain.
⸻
[Bridge – both vocals layered]
(beat cuts halfway, ambient pads, echo interplay)
You said forever, but we meant tonight (oh)
I still see you in my wine.
Tell me, was it love or just the high?
’Cause love don’t lie like that.
⸻
[Hook – final]
(beat returns, cinematic swell, layered harmonies)
Who gon’ pray for me?
Take my pain from me?
Save my soul from me — I’m not who I used to be.
If I fall for you again (you again)
Would you even let me in?
I swear I’ll never love like this again.
⸻
[Outro – fade]
(vocals distant, reverb heavy, faint 808 heartbeat)
Ooh, ooh… (whisper)
It’s the aftertaste —
that’s what kills me slow.
(fade out with breath and echo)
