Tell Her Now

This track comes from Aaron's military service — Air Force enlisted, Army Infantry officer, DoD civilian at SPAWAR/NIWC. It tackles Advice to his younger self about love — don't wait, don't assume she knows, don't let the hustle steal the moments. Say the things before it's too late.. The lyrics get specific — "She's gonna see you building empires from the couch at 2 AM" — because personal tracks on Majik's are personal for real, not performatively. The r&b ballad production matches the energy of the confession. It hits urgent and emotional, in that order. Every personal track in the catalogue comes from a real moment, a real feeling, a real person. This one is no exception.

[verse 1] You're gonna meet someone who makes the room go quiet And your dumb self is gonna play it cool and try to hide it You'll text her something clever at eleven forty-two When what you really mean is, I don't function without you But you'll choose the hustle over holding her hand Because you think she'll wait while you become the man [chorus] Tell her now, don't wait for perfect timing Tell her now, while the moment's still shining Because tomorrow's not a promise, it's a maybe at best And the words you swallow whole will burn a hole inside your chest Tell her now, put the phone down and say it Tell her now, you can't text your way through sacred Boy, you've got a hundred sixty-eight thousand messages deep But not one of them says what you were too afraid to speak [verse 2] She's gonna see you building empires from the couch at 2 AM She's gonna wonder if she matters more than business plans And here's the truth that took you way too long to learn No exit strategy replaces when it's her turn The platform can wait, the code is always there But the look she gives you when she thinks you just don't care [chorus] Tell her now, don't wait for perfect timing Tell her now, while the moment's still shining Because tomorrow's not a promise, it's a maybe at best And the words you swallow whole will burn a hole inside your chest Tell her now, put the phone down and say it Tell her now, you can't text your way through sacred [bridge] I know you think that grinding is the way you show your love That building something proves that she's the one you're thinking of But she doesn't need a kingdom, she just needs to hear you say You're the reason I keep going at the end of every day [verse 3] So younger me, from a man who learned the hard way twice Close the laptop, cross the room, and don't think twice Look her in the eyes, not the screen, and let it flow The three words that matter more than anything you'll ever code [outro] Tell her now Right now Before the moment's gone Tell her now
