Right This Time

[Intro – (sung softly over piano and strings)] I know I lost you once, but I’ve been changing, If you give me one more night, I’ll prove I ain’t the same man. No more tears, no more lies, Let me show you… I can love you right this time. ⸻ [Verse 1 – (rap, reflective tone)] You were sunlight when my skies were gray, But I pushed you out tryna run my way. I was blind in the pride, couldn’t see your light, Now I’m haunted by the sound of our final fight. I thought love was just words that you say in the dark, ’Til I lost the one who truly held my heart. I made mistakes, yeah, I wore that guilt, Now I’m tryna build back what we almost built. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – (melodic)] You said, “If you love me, show me, don’t just say,” So here I stand, no mask, no games… ⸻ [Chorus – (sung, emotional)] Let me show you I can love you right this time, No more midnight cries, no more crossed lines. I’ll be the peace when the world gets loud, I’ll hold you close, never let you down. I know the cost, I’ve paid the price, Let me love you right… this time. ⸻ [Verse 2 – (rap, passionate tone)] I remember late talks, your laugh in the sheets, How your eyes lit up when your soul felt peace. I traded diamonds for dust, now I see, That the real treasure was right next to me. I’m not asking for a pass or a rewind, Just a chance to rewrite our lifeline. Every second, every breath, I’d prove, This new me only moves for you ⸻ [Final Chorus – (sung with cinematic rise)] Let me show you I can love you right this time, No more doubts dancing in your mind. No more pain in the space between, Just you and me, chasing better dreams. Heart wide open, no more disguise… Let me love you right… this time.
