Nothing playing

Thought we were forever, a childhood pact sealed tight
Now you got a picket fence, bathed in a brand new light.
The corners of my lips curve, but the ache stays deep within
Seein' you complete, where do I even begin?
Used to call you mine, from the block, the days of 13!
Now you a whole wife, a whole mother, livin' a different scene!
Got that happy glow, the husband by your side, a life I didn't build!
My heart plays a sad song, the echo of what's been spilled!
Yeah, my heart plays a sad song, the echo of what's been spilled!
Remember trading mixtapes, secrets whispered low?
Now I see your photos, watchin' your garden grow
Tiny booties in the frame, a lullaby you hum
While I'm stuck in this concrete maze, feelin' numb.
Used to call you mine, from the block, the days of 13!
Now you a whole wife, a whole mother, livin' a different scene!
Got that happy glow, the husband by your side, a life I didn't build!
My heart plays a sad song, the echo of what's been spilled!
Yeah, my heart plays a sad song, the echo of what's been spilled!
The way you used to laugh, like wind chimes in the breeze
Now it's a different melody, puttin' my soul at ease
To see you so content, not a single trace of doubt
But a part of me still lingers, tryin' to figure it out.
This ain't no jealousy, just a ghost of what we were
A memory burnin' slow, a soft and hazy blur.
I wouldn't change a thing, I wish you nothin' but the best
But this ache in my chest, puts my resilience to the test.
Used to call you mine, from the block, the days of 13!
Now you a whole wife, a whole mother, livin' a different scene!
Got that happy glow, the husband by your side, a life I didn't build!
My heart plays a sad song, the echo of what's been spilled!
Yeah, my heart plays a sad song, the echo of what's been spilled!
Yeah, the echo of what's been spilled.
Eight months old, laughin' free.
And you're happy, I can see.
Still see you, my shawty, from back then.
Just wishin' us well, again and again.
