Twitterpated demonstrated in the way my voice changes when I

Speak to you

It's some kind of impulse, pre-love

From within not from above, infa-tuated

I'm the maestro, symphony stroke like I'm painting you with melo-dies, I

Sing to you

It's some kinda orchestra, yeah

From within now directed out; so that you can hear it

Harmonious, chitchat cherished, I pray moments never perish, but I

Gotta kill

See you sometime, replay, rewind

Ev'ry inter-action we had last night like a song

Love the soundtrack, it brings you back, like you're with me, remains intact, body

Bag of us

We live, we die together like

Big shots, big guns in my headlights, ran over by real life

"You are what you did", I say so timid

Screeching tires, how could I stay disappointed?

Rumours so succinct: "You are what you did"

Someone's hit, how could it be that you did it?

"You are what you did", pressured to give in

Who's the liar, oh, when I know recipients?

Gospel's sufficient, "You are what you did"

But what's fact, opinion when no one knows shit?

Situation fabricated, but my music couldn't stop them, I still

Play for you

Like some cellist for the culprit

Bow's an Arrow, Sarajevo, I know that you know it

But it's hard to practise up to what I play for in the face of adver-versity

Shells upon shells; born, raised in hell

Confliction, I'll pray that you're well without taking action

Backlash brutal, I'll stay vigil with my mouth shut from betrayal, silence

Innocent

But they'll refrain next to your name

What they've been say-ing all this time; "You are what you did"

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqoqQ4FiLu

And it's accompanied by expletives

No proof; lies, how could I stay disappointed?

Rumours so succinct: "You are what you did"

Someone said, "How could it be that you did it?"

"You are what you did", pressured to give in

Who's the liar, oh, when I know recipients?

Gospel's sufficient, "You are what you did"

But what's fact, opinion when no one knows shit?

I can't rue you

Because I love you

I can't rue you

Because I love you

I can't rue you

Because I love you

I can't rue you

Because I love you

283Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftBDLTc2x1

"You're not what you did", I shout assertive

And I cry, how could I stay disappointed?

"You're not what you did", pressured to give in

Who's the liar, oh, when I nod without thinking?

I honestly can’t believe Rue You is doing so well - thank you so much for engaging with it. Since no one’s really responded to my author’s note under Dynasty, I’ve decided to add some context and lore to each piece once it passes 250 reads.

Rue You was written over the course of several months. It’s inspired by a friend who had a huge crush on someone, only to later hear that this person had been accused of something awful. For a while, it was devastating - until the truth came out: the accusations were false. So this piece kind of traces that emotional journey through a more philosophical lens.
