Worse Decision - Kairo

Ever be with your ex when you know it still wouldn’t work? Worse decision is apart of my new album detached featuring in all major platforms feb 1 [Intro] Yeah… I knew better. Still went back. ⸻ [Verse 1 conversational rap, tired tone, honest delivery] I went back to my ex, yeah, I knew it was wrong, Heart said “don’t,” but my mind moved on. I missed the way it felt when it wasn’t bad, Ignored all the pain we already had. Told myself maybe we both changed, But the love still toxic, just rearranged. Same fights, same tears, same lies, Same “this time different,” same goodbye. I saw the red flags, waved ‘em away, I’d rather feel pain than feel okay. Lonely nights make you dumb sometimes, I crossed that line just to feel alive. ⸻ [Chorus melodic, repeated phrasing, emotionally restrained] I knew it was the worst decision of my life, Still ran back like it’d feel right. Tried to fix what was already broke, Now I’m choking on the words I spoke. Yeah, I knew better, still went back, Put my heart where it always cracks. I knew it’d hurt me, still took the risk, Worst decision, I admit. (ad-libs: yeah… damn… I knew…) ⸻ [Verse 2 conversational rap, tired tone, honest delivery] She said she missed me, I believed that lie, Ignored the past, let the future die. We danced around all the shit we did, Like time erased it, like we weren’t kids. I tried to be strong, she pulled me close, Knew the ending, still wanted hope. Every friend told me “don’t do that,” But love make you blind, yeah, love do that. I saw myself lose what I rebuilt, Fell back into guilt I already felt. ⸻ [Chorus melodic, repeated phrasing, emotionally restrained] I knew it was the worst decision of my life, Still ran back like it’d feel right. Tried to fix what was already broke, Now I’m choking on the words I spoke. Yeah, I knew better, still went back, Put my heart where it always cracks. I knew it’d hurt me, still took the risk, Worst decision, I admit. ⸻ [Bridge] This the part where I blame myself, ‘Cause I knew the truth, just needed help. I don’t miss her, I miss the peace, The version of love before the grief. Some doors close for a reason, I know, But I knocked again just to be sure. (half-spoken, emotional) I didn’t go back for love… I went back ‘cause I was scared to be alone. ⸻ [Outro / Chorus Reprise] Worst decision of my life, no doubt, Still hurts when I think about. I knew better, yeah, that’s the truth, Some lessons you gotta learn twice too. If I could rewind, I wouldn’t stay, But pain taught me what love ain’t. Worst decision… But now I know.
