[Intro – Producer Tag / Spoken] Yeah… Apex on the boards, you hear that crackle? Mm. Turn it up. [Chorus – Performer 1 (Country / Melodic)] Whiskey don’t forget you, no matter how I try I pour another memory just to watch it die Say I’m over you, but that’s just what I say Every glass I touch still got your name I’m ridin’ through the dark with the radio low Tryna drink you gone, but you won’t go Yeah, I learned the hard way, love don’t quit Whiskey don’t forget, no, whiskey don’t forget [Verse 1 – Performer 2 (Rap)] Jet lag, bank calls, lifestyle fast New city, same thoughts, haunted by the past Penthouse views but my phone still buzz Old flame textin’ like “you still us?” I don’t do feelings, I invest and move But some nights hit different in a darkened room Ice on the wrist, pain in the chest I mastered lookin’ calm under pressure and stress She say money changed me — maybe that’s facts But I was broke with love and it still cracked I don’t chase ghosts, I let ’em fade But every pour bring her closer, that’s crazy [Pre-Chorus – Performer 1] I tell myself I’m better alone But the truth start slurrin’ when I get home I swear I’m done every Friday night Then Saturday prove me wrong again, yeah [Chorus – Performer 1] Whiskey don’t forget you, no matter how I try I pour another memory just to watch it die Say I’m over you, but that’s just what I say Every glass I touch still got your name I’m ridin’ through the dark with the radio low Tryna drink you gone, but you won’t go Yeah, I learned the hard way, love don’t quit Whiskey don’t forget, no, whiskey don’t forget [Verse 2 – Performer 1 (Rap-Singing)] Boots by the door, keys on the bar I drive too fast just to feel where you are Neon signs blur, same old song Every road I take feel like it’s wrong I ain’t innocent, I had my flaws I said things drunk I never saw You were fire, I was gasoline Matchstick love, know what I mean Now I toast to lessons I ain’t learn Heart still burnin’ while the wheels still turn I fake a smile, play it cool But the quiet hit harder than the truth [Verse 3 – Performer 2] I been disciplined, mind on goals But emotions sneak in when the night get cold She was danger wrapped in desire Type of love turn kings to liars I don’t miss her — I miss the chaos Adrenaline rush when the trust fell off New ones around me, but it ain’t the same They don’t know my demons, they just know my name I built walls, learned to move precise But some scars don’t listen to advice I sip slow, let the silence talk Some losses don’t fade — they stalk [Bridge – Performer 1] If love’s a drug, I been clean then relapsed Swore I was done, then I doubled back They say time heals, but I’m not convinced ‘Cause the bottle still remembers what I miss [Final Chorus – Performer 1 (Emotional Lift)] Whiskey don’t forget you, yeah, it know you well Every sip a story I don’t wanna tell I move on fast, but the truth don’t bend Some loves don’t end — they just don’t win I’m ridin’ through the dark with the radio low Tryna drink you gone, but you won’t go Yeah, I learned the hard way, love don’t quit Whiskey don’t forget… No, whiskey don’t forget [Outro – Performer 2 (Spoken/Rapped)] Toast to the past, but I don’t live there Some memories fade… some sit in the chair We survived it, that count for somethin’ Apex… run it back.
