Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1 — soft Rhodes keys, low-pass, intimate vocal] I didn’t mean to break you down, Didn’t mean to dim your light. I was tryin’ just to love you, Held you closer than I had the right. All my worries turned to walls, All my fears came out as fights… You kept sayin’ that you missed me Even when I slept right by your side. --- [Pre-Chorus — bass swells, finger-snap percussion] And I know I came off cold, When all I wanted was to keep you close. Saw the hurt inside your eyes— God, I never meant for that to grow. --- [Chorus — wide pads, airy harmonies, smooth 808 glide] ’Cause all I ever had were good intentions, But good intentions couldn’t save us in the end. I was tryna build a heaven, But I pushed too hard and broke the things I meant to mend. You only saw the damage, not the reason— I own the pieces that I cracked. All I ever had were good intentions… I just couldn’t love you the way you loved me back. --- [Verse 2 — gentle guitar plucks layered with Rhodes] You were patient with my shadows, You were gentle with my storms. Gave me every chance to meet you Where your heart stayed warm. But I hid behind my pride, Never let you see my scars… Acted strong so you’d feel safe, But that only pulled us farther apart. --- [Pre-Chorus — subtle vocal stacks, reverb blooms] Should’ve learned to let you in, Instead I pushed the only one who cared. You were never the problem— It was me, the man I was back there. --- [Chorus — fuller drums, lifted harmonies] All I ever had were good intentions, But good intentions ain’t enough to make it last. I was tryna be your shelter, But somehow I became the storm you ran from fast. You only saw the damage, not the reason, And every tear you cried was where I lacked. All I ever had were good intentions… I just couldn’t love you the way you loved me back. --- [Bridge — stripped down, only keys & vocal] If I could turn back time, I’d learn your heart before I touched your mind. Hold you softer, speak less, listen more… God, I’d love you better than I did before. --- [Final Chorus — big pads, soft choir harmonies, warm low-end] All I ever had were good intentions, But now I see the way I held you wasn’t right. Tryna keep us steady, Only pulled you further from the light. And I know you found your peace now— Hope you never feel that hurt again. All I ever had were good intentions… Just wish my actions matched the love I meant.
