How

[Verse 1]
Gave you pieces of me I should’ve kept
Stayed ten toes even when I felt neglected
Loved you through your phases, through the doubt
Lost myself a little, had to find my way back out
You be right here, but your head elsewhere
I see the pressure on you, I still stay right there
I don’t need saving, I just need truth
If I’m riding for you, you gotta ride too

[Pre-Chorus] [Melodic, Slow & Airy]
I ain’t asking for perfect, no
Just consistency, let it show
If I’m choosing you every night
Meet me in the middle, don’t make it a fight 

[Chorus]
We have always been in this together 
I’m locked in, now and forever
We done danced in the fire and rain
Still standing, still the same
If it get heavy, I won’t fold
This kind of love don’t do disposable
Past, present, we evolve together
It’s us—right now and forever

⸻

[Verse 2]
The way you love me slow, intentional
Make the hard days feel bearable
You don’t say much, but I hear it clear
Every time you choose to be right here
My mind run wild, heart stay loud
You pull me back when I’m spinning out
You could be anywhere chasing the hype
But you right here choosing real life

[Pre-Chorus] [Melodic, Slow & Airy]
I don’t need the world to know
Just your hands when the lights get low
If I’m giving you all of me
Handle me with care, respectfully

[Chorus] [Repeat, Whispered Outro]
We have always been in this together
I’m locked in, now and forever
We done danced in the fire and rain
Still standing, still the same
If it get heavy, I won’t fold
This kind of love don’t do disposable
Past, present, we evolve together
always have—right now and forever
