Left On Read

He'll reply one day! Lyrics below: [Intro] Sit down boys, let me tell you ‘bout my friend named Jay King of the blue bubbles that just fade away Texts go out, but the silence tone stays This one’s for the legend who might reply one day [Verse 1] Buried deep in exams, sleeping all the time Books stacked to the ceiling, replies lost in the grind Deep in the zone, locked in with his notes Head down grinding hard, no time for texts or quotes He hits us with “Hey bro, let’s hang out next week” We said cool man, let’s put on the trunks and hit the beach Sent him a text on the day when we were ready to go Nothing in return, guess he’s on that low energy flow [Chorus] Left on read! Words dissolving into nothing! Makin’ us sad thinkin’ something happened to our brotha Swallowed by the silence, echoes fading out of sight! Floating lonely through the quiet, drifting far into the night! We send a text again, living life still on read Probably busy with his girl, on a flight instead But damn it Jay that legend — come back from the zone! We care for you bro, hit us back on the phone [Verse 2] Then you moved into a new place, still close but out of sight We barely ever see you even though you’re living nearby Radio silence grew louder, friendship stuck on airplane mode One day total quiet, next day “Haha yeah I’m back on the road!” Replies flying in, making plans to catch the train next week Schedule locked in tight, but no Jay when it’s time — now it’s a streak Shooting texts like “Bro where you at?” — we’re already on the way Bought the tickets, standing here… you gonna text back today? [Chorus] Left on read! Words dissolving into nothing! Makin’ us sad thinkin’ something happened to our brotha Swallowed by the silence, echoes fading out of sight! Floating lonely through the quiet, drifting far into the night! We send a text again, living life still on read Probably busy with his girl, on a flight instead But damn it Jay that legend — come back from the zone! We care for you bro, hit us back on the phone [Verse 3] Now you’re traveling with Aggy, passports stamped from coast to coast Building futures hand in hand, living life you love the most Our texts from last month are floating somewhere in the great unknown But we get it man, priorities — you aren’t on your own Now we get a bubble, a fresh hang out request Reaching out for a schedule, this time you’ll bring a guest The time has come, the plans are set, but this guy doesn’t show We got fooled again — that’s just your classic M-O [Chorus] Left on read! Words dissolving into nothing! Makin’ us sad thinkin’ something happened to our brotha Swallowed by the silence, echoes fading out of sight! Floating lonely through the quiet, drifting far into the night! We send a text again, living life still on read Probably busy with his girl, on a flight instead But damn it Jay that legend — come back from the zone! We care for you bro, hit us back on the phone [Bridge] I don’t wanna be dramatic but my guy’s a myth Part human, part shadow, part seen two weeks ago [Final Chorus] Left on read! Words dissolving into nothing! Makin’ us sad thinkin’ something happened to our brotha Swallowed by the silence, then you hit us like a text out the blue! Popping up like you never even ghosted the whole crew! If our best friend replies once in a full moon Your replies coming in can never be too soon! We understand, you got priorities, no worries We’re still right here for ya — through the silence and the stories! You got this Jay, that’s your boys, out
