Battery Low

(Intro)

(A soulful vocal sample chops up the word "Peace" in the background. A deep, heavy bassline rolls in, shaking the speakers.)

Yeah.

I checked the meter.

And we are running on empty.

Not me.

You.

(Verse 1)

You come around looking for a charger

Making every single day a little harder

You want the shine but you don’t want the grind

You want the fruit but you poison the vine

I see you watching how I move, how I pray

Trying to figure out how to steal a little of my day

You treat my spirit like a free-for-all buffet

But the kitchen is closed, yeah, I put the lock on the tray.

(Pre-Chorus)

(Beat drops out to just a rhythmic clap and vocals—building tension)

You love to play the victim when the script gets flipped

You love to point the finger when the mask gets ripped

But I ain't got the time to help you fix your disguise

I’m too busy building up my own paradise.

(Chorus)

(Beat drops hard—energetic, anthem-style)

Man, your battery is low! (Way down!)

You need a plug, but I ain't the one, no!

You trying to drain me, trying to dim the light

But I’m fully charged up, burning way too bright!

Go find your own source! (Back up!)

Go get your own force! (Act up!)

I’m cutting the cord, yeah, I’m severing the tie

I’m way too alive to let you bleed me dry!

(Verse 2)

(Flow switches to a fast, double-time rap delivery)

I used to listen to the problems that you aim at me

I used to think that I could fix your whole reality

But then I realized you don’t want a solution

You just want a witness to your own pollution

You want to drag me to the bottom of the deep end

Just so you can say you got a loyal friend?

Nah, that ain't friendship, that’s a hostage situation

And I’m releasing myself from the obligation.

(Bridge)

(Music slows down to a cinematic, orchestral swell—emotional and raw)

I prayed for you. I really did.

I tried to show you where the love was hid.

But you can’t fill a cup that’s got a hole in the base.

And I can’t keep running in this three-legged race.

I’m taking my peace back.

Every single piece of it.

(Chorus)

(Explosive energy returns)

Man, your battery is low! (Way down!)

You need a plug, but I ain't the one, no!

You trying to drain me, trying to dim the light

But I’m fully charged up, burning way too bright!

Go find your own source! (Back up!)

Go get your own force! (Act up!)

I’m cutting the cord, yeah, I’m severing the tie

I’m way too alive to let you bleed me dry!

(Outro)

(Beat rides out with ad-libs and a fading melody)

Disconnected.

Yeah.

Find your own power.

We good.

(Final bass hit)
