don’t wanna let you go, just joking did it with a quickness

[Intro – two voices, close, compressed] I don’t wanna let you go, but from the first damn moment it was minimal, minimal. Anyone could hope for more but you delivered less than literal. You wrote me a song, I wrote a response song, you then back‑pedaled, needed to marinate in what you wrote and apparently decided it was wrong. Disappearing for three weeks when you could have said “so long…” I don’t wanna let you go. But if you have to… I’ll let you go with the flow. [Verse – reflection vs rift] You made this journey something rare, not just sounds, but moments shared. Your naughty songs made me need a drink, your beautiful ones made me stop and think. Funny how a voice, a tone, a line, can make the heavy feel just fine ’til you dropped the match and walked away, surprised the bridge turned black that day. You disappeared like nothing happened, thought the silence wouldn’t show, and then pop up with a song that you don’t wanna let me go and dip out again, that’s not special, not even friend. If I’m not worth a bit of effort, say THE END. [Drop – clash] I mean come on, shim sham meets neanderthal bam bam, pictures overlap – tap tap. You’re creative and you’re bold, holding everything in a five‑finger chokehold, you give inner beauty a new view – pew pew but you treat effort like it’s currency, terrified to spend, counting pennies of attention like I’m not worth two cents in the end. You make this for many people so special— so special— you’re special— …but you went quiet, now I hear it, silence louder than bullshit. I give love like I had plenty, and you filled up the space you could have just left fucking empty. [Pre-Chorus – two truths] It wasn’t perfect – that’s the point, that’s what made it real… but “don’t take it personal” was your deflection, you should’ve stayed silent in the no‑comment section. You dream of someone laughing with you, someone who gets your past but when the jokes stop landing, your silence hits me fast. You were there for your people – not halfway, not light… that kind of presence doesn’t vanish overnight. [Chorus – anti‑goodbye vs let‑go] I don’t wanna let you go, only if you have to. I’ll let you go with the flow, that’s the honest thing to do. You went quiet, now I hear it, silence louder than bullshit. I’m not the one who hit zero; with no effort at all I can be my own hero. No dramatic last goodbye, just hoping life will be fine but if I’m always begging for ten minutes of your time, take your minutes back, the ones you rationed out so slow. If paths split, that’s okay some echoes choose to stay, but you have been let go. [Verse – story of effort] I spent riches like they’re endless, time and care without a fee, so you could sense in me what was broke, get a little kick in, call it a joke a joke was worth your time? What the fuck is wrong with people? Had all the words available, bare minimum was the most, just enough to fake being close with the full intention of becoming a ghost. You didn’t just walk with me, you opened doors I didn’t know were there, your circle became part of my story but now I see the fine print: connection on a timer, presence on a dare. I picked you every single day No
