Promises

Описание: Lyrics:

Verse 1Phone on silent, cause they keep me busy just making sure I stay grindin’ If I don’t answer right away, It don’t mean I’m out here lyin’. Clock keep tickin’, boss stay trippin’, Makin hard work, into pay, When I pull up late at night, It’s ‘cause I’m workin’ for our way.
I know you stare at the ceiling, Wonderin’ where I’ve been, But every cut, bruise, and ache closer to my promises in the end. I ain’t out here chasin’ women, I’m chasin’ stability, Tryna turn our prayers Into reality.

Pre-Chorus Yeah, I know sometimes I forget to call, And that hurt sit heavy on your heart, But don’t let the silence tell you lies, Girl, you been mine from the start (always)

Chorus Just ‘cause I can’t pick up the phone, Or I’m comin’ home late at night, Don’t mean I’m doin’ you wrong, Don’t mean I’m livin’ a double life. I made a promise to give you more, Than struggle, stress, and pain, I ain’t chasin’ fast money, girl, I’m workin’ for the right money, babe.
Yeah, the right money, babe, With your love in my name, I ain’t runnin’ the streets no more, I’m runnin’ straight home to you, always.

Verse 2 Yeah, the streets still whisper my name, Tell me come get that quick cash, Old friends still livin’ that way, Same trouble, different mask. I could go back to the old me, Take shortcuts, live unsafe, But I want a future with you, Not a past that fades away.
I see your face when I’m tired, That’s what keep me in line, Every late shift, every overtime, Is me investin’ in us over time. If I disappear for a minute, Girl, it’s not what you assume, I’m just tryna build a world Where we got room to breathe in.

Pre-Chorus Sometimes I get caught in the grind, Forget you need reassurance too, But every move that I make, Baby, lead right back to you.

Chorus Just ‘cause I can’t pick up the phone, Or I’m comin’ home late at night, Don’t mean I’m doin’ you wrong, Don’t mean I’m livin’ a double life. I made a promise to give you more, Than struggle, stress, and pain, I ain’t chasin’ fast money, girl, I’m workin’ for the right money, babe.
Yeah, the right money, babe, With your love in my name, I ain’t runnin’ the streets no more, I’m runnin’ straight home to you, always.

Bridge If I forget to tell you I’m stayin’ late, That’s on me, I admit my flaws, But don’t let your mind write stories That my heart never saw. Every night I choose you again, Even when you’re not beside me, Loyalty ain’t where I stand, It’s how I move when you don’t see.

Break Yeah…You the reason I work hard
Promises of bigger things…

Final ChorusSo if the phone go quiet, love,And the hours feel too long,Just know your name in my heartbeat,In every step that I’m on.I made a promise to give you more,Than temporary change,I ain’t chasin’ fast money, girl,I’m workin’ for the right money, babe.
Yeah, the right money, babe,Built on love, not games,I ain’t out here bein’ unfaithful,I’m out here tryin’ to be your man.

Outro (ad-libs / fade)Your man…Your future…Your home…Yeah…
(Workin’ for you…)(Not losin’ you…)(Every night, I choose you…)Yeah…
