[Intro] Yeah I was there for everybody But when it’s my turn Ain’t nobody here (nah) [Chorus] I was here when it hurt, where you at now? (where?) Held you up every time that you sat down Gave you rides, gave you time, gave you last rounds Now I’m cryin’ in the dark, it’s just background I was here when it hurt, where you at now? Every call that you made, I ain’t back out Now I’m broke in the soul, and you cashed out Guess I’m only worth a word when you tapped out [Verse 1] Put my phone on loud, never missed y’all once You was callin’ me drunk, I was playin’ ya front Talk you down from the ledge on them Tuesday nights Then walk into work like I’m doin’ all right You were sleep on my couch, I was short on rent Still I split that plate, still I paid that cent When your mom got sick, I was drivin’ you there When my granddad died, y’all ain’t even aware You was stuck in a cell, I was answerin’ calls Sendin’ money from a check that could barely crawl Now I’m stuck in a storm, I’m the only one soaked Group chat jumpin’, but my name got ghost [Chorus] I was here when it hurt, where you at now? (where you at?) Held you up every time that you sat down Gave you rides, gave you time, gave you last rounds Now I’m cryin’ in the dark, it’s just background I was here when it hurt, where you at now? Every call that you made, I ain’t back out Now I’m broke in the soul, and you cashed out Guess I’m only worth a word when you tapped out [Verse 2] You was beggin’ for advice, I was givin’ you game Now you up a little bit, you ain’t say my name Had you sleepin’ at the crib when you lost your spot Put my keys in your hand, said “That’s all I got” You was ventin’ ’bout your ex, I was hearin’ you cry Now my chest feel crushed, you ain’t even ask why Scrollin’ through my contacts, hitin’ names, hitin’ send Watchin’ “read” come up, but I lost them friends Family too busy, they got plans this week Guess my pain gotta wait till they find they seat So I talk to the ceiling, talk to that fan Only air in the room really understand [Chorus] I was here when it hurt, where you at now? (where?) Held you up every time that you sat down Gave you rides, gave you time, gave you last rounds Now I’m cryin’ in the dark, it’s just background I was here when it hurt, where you at now? Every call that you made, I ain’t back out Now I’m broke in the soul, and you cashed out Guess I’m only worth a word when you tapped out [Bridge] Heart on my sleeve, they just see free cloth (yeah) Gave so much that I peeled me off If my love just mean you take, then leave I’ll be there for myself when I barely breathe (real talk) [Chorus] I was here when it hurt, where you at now? Held you up every time that you sat down Gave you rides, gave you time, gave you last rounds Now I’m cryin’ in the dark, it’s just background I was here when it hurt, where you at now? Every call that you made, I ain’t back out Now I’m broke in the soul, and you cashed out But I’m standin’ on my own, I’ll be that now

rap, Moody Southern trap beat, swung hi-hats, dark bells and spaced-out pads under deep 808s. Male vocals with a laid-back drawl that flips to double-time pockets on key lines. Hook hits with layered low-octave harmonies and ad-libs; verses stay conversational, confessional, leaving room for the story to breathe. Subtle reverse effects and drops accent the loneliest lines., hip hop
