Ghosts Don’t Call

(Oakes

Forrest)

Hold on, hold on… somebody's calling.

Remember when my screen was cracked and my balance was low?

I hit you up for a ride,

said I'm stuck in the snow.

You said "I'll call you right back," that was two years ago,

Now you're sliding in my inbox like we never let go.

Kept the screenshots in a folder that I labeled "Receipts," Every "can't

right now," every "maybe,

let me see." I built my own table while you laughed from

your seat, Now you want a plate,

and a picture, and a feature for free?

New phone,

who dis?

(Who dis?) Changed my number,

changed my circle, and I don't miss it.

New phone,

who dis?

(Who dis?) You were quiet when I needed you,

now you're loud, I'm not listening.

New phone,

who dis?

Seven missed calls, three "hey strangers," one "we should link,"

Four years of silence,

now you're tryin' to buy me a drink?

Told the whole block I was dreamin',

said I'd fade out quick,

Now my song's on your story with a "that's my sis"?

That's not your sis,

that's a stranger with a tag,

My day-ones were with me when I couldn't afford the bag.

So block,

delete,

and I'm moving on the beat,

Every one of y'all's a ghost,

and a ghost can't eat.

New phone, who dis?

(Who dis?) Changed my number,

changed my circle, and I don't miss it.

New phone, who dis?

(Who dis?) You were quiet when I needed you,

now you're loud, I'm not listening.

New phone, who dis?

Who's this?

…Yeah. Don't call back.
