[Intro – Spoken Word] Crackles on the vinyl… Stella said love sounded better before the breakup… Sentimale drums… heart still knockin’… …drop it [Verse 1] Met her in a dim room, chords hangin’ like perfume Soft laugh echo off the walls like a cartoon Stella with a pen, ex with a Polaroid grin Two rebels dancin’ where the heartbreak begin Kevin I. keys hum low like confession Every little loop sound like a lost session Used to write hooks on the back of a receipt Now every love note feel incomplete Late night walks while the skyline blink Shared headphones — same song, same sync But the groove went crooked like a warped cassette Said forever once… now she just forget Sentimale drums got the tears in swing Hi-hat tick like a lost wedding ring Every bar heavy but the flow stay light Laugh through the pain like a villain at night [Hook] She was Stella’s melody — now she just a refrain Looped in the memory but it don’t sound the same If I love again — let the sample play slow Let the ghosts harmonize where the old winds blow She was Stella’s rhythm — heartbeat off time Every broken promise turn to punchline rhyme If I love again — let the crackle be real Dust on the vinyl but the scars still feel [Verse 2] Mask on metaphor — jokes hide sorrow Borrowed time kisses that expired tomorrow Ex-girl silhouette in the back of the mind Like a scratched up chorus Stella can’t rewind They used to freestyle dreams on the bus ride home Now Stella make beats in a room alone Pitch down laughter from a voicemail past Time stretch love but it never lasts Coffee shop dates turned silent quick Arguments loop like a record skip She said “you love beats more than me” — truth stung Stella chopped heartbreak into bass and drum Dilla swing therapy, snare lean left Every off-beat moment scream what’s left If I Love Again sample cry in the back Like a memory Stella can’t unpack [Hook] She was Stella’s melody — now she just a refrain Looped in the memory but it don’t sound the same If I love again — let the sample play slow Let the ghosts harmonize where the old winds blow She was Stella’s rhythm — heartbeat off time Every broken promise turn to punchline rhyme If I love again — let the crackle be real Dust on the vinyl but the scars still feel [Bridge – Spoken Word] They say heartbreak make the drums hit harder… Stella said… maybe… But every swing got a shadow in it [Verse 3] Found an old hoodie smellin’ like last year Beat stopped breathin’ when the memory appear Ex wrote letters with glitter and flame Now Stella sample pain instead of her name But the groove still warm like a half-closed door Love might knock even after the war Keys from Kevin float like a midnight text “Hope you’re okay” — Stella never pressed next Villain grin hide a poet’s sigh Turned goodbye tears into lullaby Now every crowd chant when the hook drop low They don’t know the ex still run the show Sentimale drums got the closure knock Hi-hat tick like a healing clock Stella press play — let the past unwind Leave one last loop… then press rewind [Outro – Spoken Word] Crackle fade… heartbeat slow… Some loves end… but the samples glow… Needle lift… silence stay… Stella found rhythm anyway…
