⸻
Hook (melodic, autotune)
It get lonely at the top, I ain’t gon’ lie
Remember Providence nights, starin’ at the sky
We was broke but we still felt alive
Now I got everything, still somethin’ inside
It get lonely at the top, I can’t pretend
Same city, different life, different friends
We was dreamin’ just to make it out the end
Now I made it, but I lost you in the wind
⸻
Verse 1
We was posted on them corners with a vision
Talkin’ ‘bout the future like we really seen it
Mama stressin’, rent due, barely livin’
Still we smiled through the pain, kept believin’
You was my peace when the world got loud
Now I’m up in these rooms with a fake-ass crowd
They don’t know what it cost to get this far
They just see the shine, not the battle scars
We was prayin’ for a life out the struggle
Now I’m here but I’m still in trouble
‘Cause the ones that I wanted at the table
Ain’t the ones that be sittin’ with me now
⸻
Pre-Hook (melodic)
Funny how you reach your dreams
But you lose what you need
I was chasin’ a better me
You was just chasin’ peace
⸻
Hook
It get lonely at the top, I ain’t gon’ lie
Remember Providence nights, starin’ at the sky
We was broke but we still felt alive
Now I got everything, still somethin’ inside
It get lonely at the top, I can’t pretend
Same city, different life, different friends
We was dreamin’ just to make it out the end
Now I made it, but I lost you in the wind
⸻
Verse 2
I been runnin’ from the past, but it catch me
Every memory of you try to trap me
You was there when nobody would back me
Now you just a ghost in my taxi
I been stackin’ all this money for protection
But it don’t block out this rejection
All these people want my time now
But where was they when I was down?
You used to say I was the one
Now you gone when I begun
Funny how love get scared
When the dream start comin’ true
⸻
Bridge (soft, emotional)
If I could go back to them nights
When it was just me and you
I’d trade all this fame and lights
Just to feel that love again too
⸻
Final Hook (bigger, layered)
It get lonely at the top, I ain’t gon’ lie
Remember Providence nights, starin’ at the sky
We was broke but we still felt alive
Now I got everything, still somethin’ inside
It get lonely at the top, I can’t pretend
Same city, different life, different friends
We was dreamin’ just to make it out the end
Now I made it, but I lost you in the wind
Lost my best friend…
