V5.5

[Verse 1] You never snatched the key like the room was a steal. You let me move first, let the offer feel real. Careful ain’t cold, it’s the code I can keep. I don’t blow the door off just to prove that I leap. Same cracks, same coat, new grip in the palm. I need a hand that hold when the old alarms go off. I chose the right one when I finally could stand. Not a lightning hook — just a stay I can plan. [Pre-Chorus] Not a leap this time. A step I can keep. You waited. I offered. That’s the difference I need. [Chorus] You’re the right one, not because it’s easy. You’re the right one ‘cause you made the choosing feel clean. I don’t need a miracle. I need a stay I can trust. A hand that don’t vanish when the loving gets rough. The right one. Not perfect. Just true. If we build it right, I walk forward with you. [Verse 2] I used to think the right one would wipe out the fall. You didn’t wipe it. You made space for it all. Ghost that I buried don’t get billed to your name. I keep the receipt and I still choose the flame. Eyes open, hand out, no blind in the faith. If you catch when I slip, then the slip ain’t a waste. I don’t need a rewrite. I need a place that repeats. And if we build it right, it’ll solidify into concrete. [Rap] Careful how I give it. Careful how I speak. Not because I don’t want you — because I want this to keep. You were the offer after the floor disappeared. I took the hand. I watched it. Then I let it get near. The right one ain’t a lightning bolt. It’s a stay that repeats. That’s the kind of proof I can put under my feet. [Chorus] You’re the right one, not because it’s easy. You’re the right one ‘cause you made the choosing feel clean. I don’t need a miracle. I need a stay I can trust. A hand that don’t vanish when the loving gets rough. The right one. Not perfect. Just true. If we build it right, I walk forward with you. [Outro] I’m not open wide. I’m open on purpose.
