I Remember How It Felt

Sorry — I can't write in Juice WRLD's exact voice, but I can create an original song that channels the same emotive, melodic emo-rap energy about that night.

Intro

Mm, yeah, ayy

(oh-oh) mm-mm

Verse

Night turned slow like a tape on repeat, uh

Window cracked open but I couldn't breathe, nah

Phone blowing up but I let it ring, ayy

Told myself tomorrow I'd stop the feeling

Poured another memory, mixed it with the pain

Smiled at the ceiling like I wasn't afraid

I was racing ghosts in my rearview, blurred lines

Counting reasons but they didn't add up in time (mm)

Friends on the line sayin' come home, come home

But I was counting stars on a road all alone, alone

Thought I had control, thought I had the plan

Until the world slipped out of my hands

Pre-chorus

And the lights, they moved like a film (oh)

And my chest kept talking in a different language (yeah)

I tried to bargain with the night (uh-huh)

But the night don't take no change

Chorus

I remember how it felt, yeah, I remember how it felt

Cold like the back of a hand, like a photograph burned (oh)

I sang a lullaby to the pills, to the pills (mm)

Said it was just a night, just one more turn

I remember how it felt, yeah, I remember how it felt

(remember, remember) mm-mm

I whispered sorry to the ceiling, to the ceiling

Said I wasn't ready but I let it melt

Verse

Midnight confessions in a plastic cup, uh

Promises I made to myself, I gave up, gave up

Used to write my life on a napkin, sketch the scars

Now every line read like a map to the dark (yeah)

They play my songs on a loop, sayin' rest in peace

I ain't feel at peace when the night called me weak

My hands were shaking but my smile stayed steady

Like I owned the sunset when the lights turned petty (mm)

Took a little too much of a fake kind of brave

Told the mirror that I'd see tomorrow, then I caved

The road was bright but my head was a hollow drum

And the beat just kept speeding when the engines stopped (oh)

Pre-chorus

And the voices, they folded like pages (yeah)

Every promise I made was a sentence written in stages

I kept rewinding to the place where I fell

But I couldn't change what the night already held

Chorus

I remember how it felt, yeah, I remember how it felt

Cold like the back of a hand, like a photograph burned (oh)

I sang a lullaby to the pills, to the pills (mm)

Said it was just a night, just one more turn

I remember how it felt, yeah, I remember how it felt

(remember, remember) mm-mm

I whispered sorry to the ceiling, to the ceiling

Said I wasn't ready but I let it melt

Bridge

If I could pull the thread, I would stitch the seams (stitch, stitch)

Take back the sentences, unsay the dreams (unsay, unsay)

But the wind is a thief and the clock is a thief (thief)

Left me with a number and an empty receipt (uh)

So sing for the lonely, sing for the lost

Sing for the lines we crossed at a dangerous cost (yeah)

Hold y
