Sample excerpt
Told myself I'd stop checking if you're online, made it four days, that's a record for me. The city looks the same from every angle, which is how I know the problem isn't the city.
I'm good, I'm great, I'm somewhere in between, counting all the ways I almost called. You were never mine to keep or lose, that's the part that's hardest to recall.
Workshop note — First person, present, sung rather than spat. Melodic trap needs vowels that hold: end each line on a note the voice can ride. At 130 BPM the hook repeats twice before the last line resolves it.
