After A Year

[Intro (spoken / melodic)] Yeah… I didn’t plan this I buried love… But it grew back [Chorus(emotional,half-sung)] Still after a year, I’m thinkin’ of love Heart so tired, but it’s wakin’ up I been fightin’ my feelings, duckin’ the drugs Still 3 a.m., prayin’ for trust Still after a year, I walk with my pain Smile outside, but it ain’t the same If love come back, it gotta be safe I ain’t losin’ myself again [Verse: Rap] Whole year numb, I ain’t feel nothin’ Turned my phone off, turned pain to somethin’ Studio nights, my tears on the mic Every song just another fight I told myself love was the problem But really I was scared to solve it Built these walls, now I’m trapped inside Strong for the world, weak when I’m alone at night [Pre-Hook (quiet → build)] I don’t miss the lies, I miss the feeling When someone saw me beyond the healing I been runnin’, but I’m still bleedin’ Tell me why hope still breathin’? [Chor] Still after a year, I’m thinkin’ of love Heart so tired, but it’s wakin’ up I been fightin’ my feelings, duckin’ the drugs Still 3 a.m., prayin’ for trust Still after a year, I walk with my pain Smile outside, but it ain’t the same If love come back, it gotta be safe I ain’t losin’ myself again [Verse 2:Rap] I don’t want lust, I want peace Someone who stay when it get deep I’m done with games, I been through hell I learned you can drown even wishin’ well I been loved wrong, healed alone That change a man, harden his tone If you hear this, just understand I don’t need saving—just hold my hand [Bridge (melodic, emotional peak)] If I let you in, don’t break me I’m fragile where you can’t see I been strong for way too long I just wanna rest in someone [Hook (last, stripped then full beat)] Still after a year, I’m thinkin’ of love Not ‘cause I’m weak, but I’ve grown enough If I fall again, I’ll fall slow With my heart exposed, but my eyes wide open, yeah Still after a year… I made room for love [Outro] Some hearts don’t heal quick They heal true Yeah… K-MAX
