Nervous Smile

[Verse 1]
Nervous smile on my face
When the fun ain’t here at all
Keep on laughing, laughing, laughing
While the whole room feels so small
Mood grew cold in a second
Joke fell flat on the floor
Fear in my eye for a moment
But I’m still showing teeth like before (yeah)
[Chorus]
I can’t stop smiling
Even when the vibe goes quiet, goes quiet
Heartbeat wild but I hide it
With that nervous, nervous smile, I
Keep on grinning, keep on trying
Turn this freezer to a fire
I can’t stop, can’t stop smiling
When the mood grows cold on me
[Verse 2]
Tongue tied, cracking up sideways
Playing it off, I pretend I’m fine
Chewing on the edge of my sentence
Dancing on the edge of my pride
They say “you good?” I say “always”
Voice too high, but I ride that line
Joking like I’m not shaking
Mask so bright it’s blinding my mind (uh)
[Chorus]
I can’t stop smiling
Even when the vibe goes quiet, goes quiet
Heartbeat wild but I hide it
With that nervous, nervous smile, I
Keep on grinning, keep on trying
Turn this freezer to a fire
I can’t stop, can’t stop smiling
When the mood grows cold on me (on me)

rap, Moody, playful rap over a sparse, bouncy drum groove and warm sub bass. Male vocals with a sly, half-smirk delivery; verses ride tight, percussive syllables, while the hook widens with melodic chant-style stacking and light, detuned keys. Subtle pitch bends and delay throws on select words keep it quirky as the energy creeps from tense to cheeky confidence.
