[Intro ] [Verse 1 – Rap] I saw him laugh and my lungs got tight Not 'cause he lied, but somethin’ ain’t right Heart skipped beats like a scratched up track Eyes told truths that he never took back He said “relax,” but I feel the fire Tryna stay cool but I’m caught in the wire It’s not her fault, it’s the space between Where my thoughts build stories like a guillotine I ain’t tryna be toxic, nah, I ain’t proud But love got quiet, and my fears got loud Every joke he makes with someone new Hits like a ghost I can’t undo [Hook – melodic rap] Jealousy , she walks with me In the silence, she talks to me Not a stranger, she’s family The shadow in my sanity Jealousy , she wears my name And I play her twisted game She ain’t loud, she ain’t cruel She just bends my golden rule [Verse 2 – Rap] I’ve been calm, been cool, been fake But inside I’m glass that’s 'bout to break I scroll, I stare, I overthink Each like, each heart, each little wink He says I’m “too much,” nah, maybe I care Too hard, too deep and that ain’t fair To me or him but I ain’t blind I see what’s real between the lines I’m not mad at her, it’s not even hate It’s the fear of not bein’ enough he won’t state She’s not in his arms, but she’s in my head Sleepin’ right next to me in my bed [Bridge ] (Yeah) I pray for peace, but she prays on me A pretty lie in my honesty Love got wings, but doubt got roots And jealousy? She wears my boots. [Hook ] Jealousy she walks with me In the silence, she talks to me Not a stranger, she’s family The shadow in my sanity Jealousy she wears my name And I play her twisted game She ain’t loud, she ain’t cruel She just bends my golden rule [Final Verse – Rap, faster flow] She ain’t fire, she’s fog creeping slow Turning maybe’s into “no,” She’s the crack in the smile, itch in the trust Turns “ride or die” into “lose or bust” And yeah, I know love’s gotta breathe But I’m out here choking on what I believe I hold on tight, but that’s my sin 'Cause love don’t live where fear moves in [Outro ] Jealousy... She’s not the villain I chose... She’s just the whisper. Of what love never shows.
