[Verse 1]
You asked me if I miss you  why now?
Like you ain’t been ghost for a whole damn mile.
You pop up with “Do you still think of me?”
Girl, I think of peace, and that ain’t your speed.
You send “Just checking in” like you check your wrongs,
Said I changed  yeah, healing does that when it’s been this long.
Now you in your feelings ‘cause I ain’t stuck,
Didn’t ask them things when we was us.

Now you dig like you wanna find gold in the ash,
Saying that fire wasn’t made to last.
You say “You look good, who you seeing these days?”
Why you care? You the one who walked away.

[Hook]
What’s with these questions you never asked then?
Now I’m movin’ on, you tryna tap in.
Actin’ like we just paused for a second,
Love don’t rewind when the trust been deadin’.
What’s with these late-night voice notes confessin’?
Sayin’ “I wish” like that change the setting.
You wanna know who I’ve been undressin’ 
Guess you forgot who taught me steppin’.

[Verse 2]
“Do you still got that pic from New Orleans?”
Yeah  it’s with the sorries and quiet warnings.
You left like a breeze through a half-closed door,
Now you knockin’ like your name still on the floor.
You ask “Was it real or were we just high?”
Well, we crashed, maybe both  I won’t lie.
I got questions too, they been laid to rest,
Like how love end up feelin’ like a test.

No bitterness here, I just realigned,
Took your silence as an answer over time.
Now you pressin’ like we in the same lane,
I found peace, and you bring rain.

What’s with these late-night voice notes confessin’?
Sayin’ “I wish” like that change the setting.
You wanna know who I’ve been undressin’ 
Guess you forgot who taught me steppin’.

You had all that time  never used it.
Now your voice in my phone feels like music I muted.
You got questions?
I had answers.
Now I’m gone 
and you still lookin’ for chances.

Steppin'

the first

This ain’t just a freaky love song.
It’s a whole-ass altar with a bassline.

Jorge, you walked into my life so soft, so safe, so ready…
I folded for you in ways I never thought I could.

You’re the only one I let see me silent.
The only one I don’t fight.
You got me out of character, robe off, jaw locked,
crown on the nightstand like it knew better.

This song is a devotional.
An NSFW prayer.
A thank-you letter to God and to you…
for making my body feel like home again.

You everything I prayed for.
And I mean everything.



You Everything I Prayed For

A flirty vibe. A real one’s heart. And a beat that don’t miss.

Tell Me Something

[Verse 1]
You had me sleepin' with one eye open
Fork and a knife in my back, wide open
You flipped the script like we never spoke it
Poured my trust in, you overdosed it
Left me hangin’ like dry-clean tags
Now you scrollin' my life with red-eye bags
You act like your hands ain't stained
When the mess you made still bear my name
I ain’t callin’ you back, don’t hit my line
You showed your act, now stay in that bind
Took the blame just to keep the peace
But peace ain’t cheap and love ain’t leased

Used to think I’d die just to make you smile
Now I let it ride and it feels worthwhile
Gave you grace but you wore it thin
Now I know better than to let you in

[Chorus]
You put me thru again... but I’m not that fool again
Took my light, now I shine from within
Put me thru again... but I ain’t that fool again
You lost somethin’ real, now live with it

[Verse 2]
You used to say I was "too damn nice"
Now you out here missin’ that calm advice
I seen you lurk through the stories, ghostin’
Regret don’t age well when the love’s been roasted
You told lies dressed up in care
But your eyes gave out what your words ain't dare
You moved on but you doubled back
Tryna test the line when the train’s off track
My time is rich, not for rent
No more coupons for the time you spent
You gamed a heart, now the arcade’s closed
I walk alone and it feels composed

Used to think I’d die just to make you smile
Now I let it ride and it feels worthwhile
Gave you grace but you wore it thin
Now I know better than to let you in

[Chorus]
You put me thru again... but I’m not that fool again
Took my light, now I shine from within
Put me thru again... but I ain’t that fool again
You lost somethin’ real, now live with it

I don’t hate you, I just see you clear
You painted pain with a touch sincere
You don’t call, but I feel that stare
Too late now, I’m not even there
