[Verse 1]
Girl, you text first, then wait
Staring at your screen too late
He leaves you hanging, you make excuses
Call it “busy,” I call it useless
You cancel plans when he might call
Shrink yourself just to feel tall
You dim your shine to fit his shade
But you the diamond in this charade (uh)
[Chorus]
April, let him go
If you gotta chase, then he too slow
You the prize, he should already know
If he won’t step up, then walk out the door
April, let him go
You ain’t his backup, you the show
Why you run circles ‘round a ghost?
If he won’t chase you, he not your home
[Verse 2]
You replay red flags like love songs
Tell me, how he right when he so wrong?
You want forever, he want “maybe”
You want a partner, he want “lazy”
You deserve flowers just ‘cause it’s Tuesday
Laugh ‘til you cry on a bad day
You deserve arms that hold you close
Not someone liking pics then going cold (nah)
[Chorus]
April, let him go
If you gotta chase, then he too slow
You the prize, he should already know
If he won’t step up, then walk out the door
April, let him go
You ain’t his backup, you the show
Why you run circles ‘round a ghost?
If he won’t chase you, he not your home
[Bridge]
You ain’t hard to love, he hard of hearing (yeah)
Can’t see the vision, he don’t deserve the screening
I’m right here, front row, always cheering
Why you crying over someone disappearing?
Say it out loud, “I choose me”
Feel that power in your heartbeat
When you stop running after him
Watch how your whole world starts to win (hey!)
[Chorus]
April, let him go
If you gotta chase, then he too slow
You the prize, he should already know
If he won’t step up, then walk out the door
April, let him go
You ain’t his backup, you the show
One day soon you’ll finally know
Leaving his shadow made you glow
