STILL GOT YOUR NAME

Tekst utworu

(Intro — low, smooth vocal) Yeah… Funny how somebody can be gone and still be everywhere. Mm. (Verse 1) I’ve been ridin’ through the city with the seat laid back, Tryna clear my head but it don’t work like that, Got your name in my phone, I ain’t deletin’ the past, I just don’t hit call when I’m thinkin’ ’bout that. You knew me before all the walls went high, Before every “I’m good” really meant “don’t ask why,” I gave you the truth, you gave me goodbye, Now I’m up at two with that look in my eyes. I ain’t mad that you left, I’m mad how you did it, Said you needed space, I gave you the distance, Now you wanna come around ‘cause you see I’m different, But you made this version, so live with the difference. I got colder, yeah, maybe I did, Had to grow where you broke what I thought we had built, And I still get a feeling when somebody mentions Your name— But I don’t let ’em know that shit. (808 slides into hook) (Hook — smooth melodic delivery) I’ve been riding with the bass down low, Windows dark and my heart gone cold, You moved on but the truth don’t go, There’s a piece of you everywhere I go. And I know, I know, I should’ve let that memory go, But love turns anger when it gets too old, So I ride all night with the 808 low. I’ve been riding with the bass down low, Bass down low… Heart gone cold… Still got your name in my soul. (Verse 2 — faster pocket) I don’t need revenge, I been doing just fine, But I’d be lying if I said you don’t cross my mind, Every night around twelve when I’m losing track of time, I remember every promise like you said it last night. That’s the part that gets me. I remember you saying you’d never switch sides, Now I’m looking at forever like forever’s a lie, I could tell you I don’t care, but that’s just my pride, ‘Cause you can’t get this angry ‘bout somebody you don’t mind. So yeah, maybe I still got love in me, Maybe that’s why what you did still cuts in me, You were the one place I dropped my guard willingly, Now everybody after you gets what’s left of me. That’s messed up. But it’s true though. I learned people change when the mood goes, Learned “always” ain’t long as you think, And a heart can still drown when it’s too cold to sink. So I stay moving. Black sky, two lanes, Same road, new day, Deep bass, loose change Shaking every time the 808— Slides. (Long 808 glide) (Hook) I’ve been riding with the bass down low, Windows dark and my heart gone cold, You moved on but the truth don’t go, There’s a piece of you everywhere I go. And I know, I know, I should’ve let that memory go, But love turns anger when it gets too old, So I ride all night with the 808 low. I’ve been riding with the bass down low, Bass down low… Heart gone cold… Still got your name in my soul. (Instrumental strips back — low 808 and hi-hats) (Verse 3 — quiet anger) I don’t wanna hear “sorry,” it don’t change that night, Don’t wanna hear you finally learned wrong from right, I would’ve crossed every line just to keep us alive, You couldn’t cross your pride just to meet me halfway. That’s what changed me. Not losing you— Losing who I was when I trusted you. Now I second-guess love when it’s coming through, ’Cause the sweetest damn words sound like something you used. And maybe that’s unfair. But I ain’t healed yet. Still got nights where I feel that, Still get angry when I think back, Still hear your voice when the bass hits— But I don’t text back. Nah. I just keep driving. (808 drops deeper) (Final Hook — layered vocals, full trap beat) I’ve been riding with the bass down low, Windows dark and my heart gone cold, You moved on but the truth don’t go, There’s a piece of you everywhere I go. And I know, I know, Maybe one day I’ll finally let go, But tonight I’m angry and the road feels home, So I ride all night… With the 808 low. Bass down low… Heart gone cold… Still got your name— But you don’t got me. (808 sustains and slowly fades out)
