[Verse 1] You used to call me “brother,” said we’d never drift apart, we laughed until the sunrise like nothing could go dark. When the lights were always shining, you were standing by my side, but when the music faded down, so did all your pride. [Verse 2] I learned that some stay close to you only while the drinks are poured, but when the table’s empty, they don’t knock on your door. I don’t expect from anybody, I won’t chase what walked away, you were there when life was easy, but gone when skies turned gray. [Chorus] I don’t expect from anybody, I finally understand, some friends only love the spotlight, not the weight of your hand. [Verse 3] We made plans that felt unbreakable, spoke of loyalty and truth, but silence showed me clearly who was only passing through. When I needed just a call, just a voice to say “I’m here,” all I heard was distance wrapped in empty cheers. [Bridge] No anger, no revenge inside, just clarity at last, real ones don’t disappear when the good times pass. [Chorus] I don’t expect from anybody, I stand stronger on my own, better honest solitude than a crowded room alone. [Final Chorus] I don’t expect from anybody, because now I see it clear, the ones who stay when nothing shines are the ones who truly care. [Outro] You were there for the laughter… but I stayed through the fall.
