- prod.Highkey
- [Intro –0:00–0:10]
- Yeah, yeah...
- Tears on my face, but I hide that pain,
- Same old scars, just a different rain.
- Oh oh, yeah...
- [Chorus –0:10–0:34]
- Teardrops fallin' on my black hoodie,
- Heart turned cold, ain't nobody understood me.
- I gave my all, you took everything from me,
- Now I'm fightin' all these demons tryna hunt me.
- Teardrops, teardrops, drownin' in the rain,
- I keep screamin', but nobody hears the pain.
- Broken promises, they never stay the same,
- You left me in the dark, now I'm walkin' through the flames.
- [Verse 1 –0:34–1:09]
- I've been runnin' from the past, but it's catchin' up,
- Every time I find love, they ain't givin' much.
- Had my heart on my sleeve, now I'm stitchin' cuts,
- Everybody say they real till the road gets rough.
- Late nights, headlights, drivin' through the storm,
- Used to feel alive, now my soul feel torn.
- You were supposed to be my shelter when the rain poured,
- Now I'm standin' in the wreckage of the love we formed.
- I don't wanna hear apologies, they're overdue,
- I was fightin' for forever, you were passin' through.
- Had a thousand different reasons I believed in you,
- Now a thousand broken pieces show me what is true.
- I been down, I been hurt, I been pushed aside,
- Had to learn the hardest lessons with these tears I cried.
- You can see a little smile, never what's inside,
- I'm a storm behind the silence that I cannot hide.
- [Chorus –1:09–1:33]
- Teardrops fallin' on my black hoodie,
- Heart turned cold, ain't nobody understood me.
- I gave my all, you took everything from me,
- Now I'm fightin' all these demons tryna hunt me.
- Teardrops, teardrops, drownin' in the rain,
- I keep screamin', but nobody hears the pain.
- Broken promises, they never stay the same,
- You left me in the dark, now I'm walkin' through the flames.
- [Verse 2 –1:33–2:09 |HARD TWIST]
- Now I'm back with a vengeance, got a fire in my chest,
- All the pain that you gave me put my heart to the test.
- Had to bury all the memories, let the old me rest,
- I ain't sayin' I'm perfect, I'm just givin' my best.
- Every scar got a story, every tear got a name,
- Every person that abandoned me became another flame.
- I was beggin' for some loyalty, you treated it like games,
- Now I'm buildin' something stronger out the pieces of my pain.
- Found a letter in my jacket, thought it came from you,
- But the handwriting was mine from when my heart was new.
- Said, "Don't forget the kid who had a dream to chase,"
- Now I'm starin' at a stranger with my younger face.
- Plot twist, I ain't cryin' 'cause you walked away,
- I'm cryin' for the part of me I lost along the way.
- Wiped the mirror, saw that kid still standin' tall,
- These ain't tears of my defeat, they're proof I survived it all.
- [Final Chorus –2:09–2:31 |POWERFUL TWIST]
- Teardrops fallin' on my black hoodie,
- Heart still scarred, but the pain ain't gonna rule me.
- I gave my all, you took everything from me,
- But you couldn't take the dreams that still run through me.
- Teardrops, teardrops, wash away the pain,
- I survived another night inside the pourin' rain.
- Broken promises won't ever be my chains,
- You left me in the dark, now I'm the one who lights the flames.
- [Outro –2:31–2:35]
- Yeah...
- I thought I lost you...
- But I found me.
