[Atmospheric Reverb] [Intro – Echoed Harmonies, Sparse Pads] (You always looked good... yeah...) (But I saw it different...) [Rap Verse 1 – Melodic Rap, Low Register Flow with Controlled Syllables] You had that soft smile for strangers, Practiced alone in the rearview Late night replies with delays, I waited... but silence just cleared you Penthouse lit, but you stayed low Posted the angle they’d cheer to Told me you’re stressed in the chest, But in public you playin' the clear view Say it’s not deep... but it’s deep though You fake peace, but you keep low I read through the pose, You framed it tight — but the hurt still leaked though Your eyes told a story in stills, But the movie was cut from a B-roll Acted like joy was a flex, But your voice always cracked on the reload [Build Up] [Pre-Chorus – R&B Vocals with Filtered Delay] You say it ain’t that deep... But I know that look you give the mirror when it’s just you You dressed up pain in Dior But that don't mean it fits you... [Chorus – Half-Sung, Smooth Melodic Layers] Perfect on camera... But I know that’s not you Postin’ like we solid... When I couldn’t get through Everyone think you flawless... I’m the only one who knew You smile for the story... But you cried off cue [Emotional] [Post-Chorus – Melodic Refrain, Breathier Tone] Yeah... you smiled for them... But you ain't smile for me Yeah... you played the role... But behind the scenes... (You were slippin’... I was wishin’...) (We were fiction... but they missed it...) [Rap Verse 2 – Rap Flow, Intimate Tone with Refined Flow] You moved like the love was a brand Safe in the post but gone in the plan Said you want soft, then ghosted my hands I gave you peace, you gave me a stance Now it's captions over compassion Fashion week smiles and scripted reactions Say we just “grew apart”? Nah — you vanished, then blamed my lack of traction You looked fine when the camera rolled But dimmed out fast when the lighting slowed You said I'm “cold” for not seein' the signs But how can I read what you never showed? [Build Up] [Pre-Chorus – Softly Sung with Layered Harmony Underscore] You dressed up pain in Dior But that don't mean it fits you You say it ain’t that deep But I’ve seen what it did to you... [Chorus – Full Emotion, Stacked Harmonies] Perfect on camera... But I know that’s not you Postin’ like we solid... When I couldn’t get through Everyone think you flawless... I’m the only one who knew You smile for the story... But you cried off cue [Emotional] [Post-Chorus – Melodic Refrain, Echo Delay] Yeah... your phone was loud... But you weren’t callin’ me Yeah... the likes went up... But your joy was empty... (You were searchin’... in the silence...) (But the love... never vibed in...) [Bridge – Soft Harmonies, Sparse Piano Chords] You used to stay up late just to feel numb... Told me silence was louder than the drum Now it's DND and hotel keys But not once did you ever say please... [Chorus – Final Chorus with Soft Breakdown Feel] Perfect on camera... But it’s all just the show Keep sayin’ you're okay... But I already know Perfect for captions... But not for the truth You looked full of love... But it was just... for the views [Emotional] [Post-Chorus – Whispered, Closing Tone] You smiled for them... But I saw the cracks You posed for the flash... Then never came back (Yeah... you were perfect...) (Just not when it mattered...) [Outro – Soft Synth Drift, Tape Delay FX] Perfect on camera... But you were blurry up close! [End – Long Reverb Tail]
