hi everyone, it’s embrieigh. <3 this one is so incredibly special to me because it’s dedicated to my absolute rock, amina. ✨ shes always the first to beg for more songs, read my lyrics, heart my songs. she’s the reason i didn’t give up when i felt 'actually unlovable.' shes so sweet so GO FOLLOW HER NOW!! amina, this is for you. ilysm bestie. <33 (Verse 1) I’d send the file at two in the morning A static recording, a heart-shaped warning Before the world knew a single line You were the only one staying on the line You heard the cracks before the polish was on You stayed awake ‘til the break of the dawn Listening to verses that didn’t even rhyme Giving me all of your precious time. (Chorus) Beloved Amina, the first to the gate You never made me feel like a burden or weight When the silence was loud and the room felt so cold You were the story that needed be told The blueprint of loyalty, the soul of the song With you by my side, I could never be wrong. (Verse 2) You’ve got a folder of every mistake The songs that I wrote just for my own sake You cheered for the demos like they were the hits Picking up all of my shattered-up bits If I’m the melody, then you are the key The version of love that finally set me free It’s not just a friendship, it’s a sacred pact The only thing in this life that’s actually a fact. (Bridge) From the bedroom floor to the big bright lights You’re the one I’m calling on the hardest nights You saw the vision when the vision was blurred You’re the heart behind every single word! Yeah, you’re the heart behind every single word! (Chorus) Beloved Amina, the first to the gate You never made me feel like a burden or weight When the silence was loud and the room felt so cold You were the story that needed be told The blueprint of loyalty, the soul of the song With you by my side, I could never be wrong. (Outro) First listener. Lasting friend. Beloved Amina, until the very end. (Spoken) I think she’s gonna like this one. <33
