About This Track

6lack spends 'Disconnect' wrestling with the collapse of a relationship built on broken trust and misaligned needs. The song pivots on a single metaphor: he's been searching for a signal that never came, and now the line is dead. What begins as a plea to avoid further damage, "No, I don't wanna piss you off", hardens into acceptance. He and his partner are speaking different languages, one anchored in fantasy, the other in what he sees as reality. By the final stretch, resignation has won. He's falling out of love, and there's nothing left to salvage. The track marks a turning point within the album's arc of romantic disintegration. Where earlier songs found him contemplating the end or reckoning with his own mistakes, here he stops trying. The production sits low and nocturnal, giving space to his plainspoken delivery. A brief spoken interlude late in the song shifts the frame outward, interrogating the gap between what men claim to want in relationships and what they're willing to give. It's a moment of clarity that doubles as an indictment, cutting through the song's intimate despair with something sharper and more political.

"Disconnect" is a track by 6lack, from the album East Atlanta Love Letter, released 21st May 2026. The track is 4:26 long. It's filed under R&B/Soul. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Disconnect

You think I don't know when call it quits
How could I not know after all this here?
I spent so much time tryna find a signal, but
It's safe to say it's no good
A nigga need to roll up
No, I don't wanna piss you off
No, I ain't tryna make you yell
Girl, why you wanna kick me outta my natural element?
No, I don't wanna piss you off
I ain't tryna make you yell
Now, why you wanna kick me outta my natural element?
I'm tryna work it out
But we got a disconnect (yeah)
I'm tryna work it out
But we got a disconnect, yeah
Love is not looking over shoulders
Love is you should trust what I told you
Lately it's been like you speaking fantasy
And I'm speaking reality
'Cause we got problems we ain't gettin' over
I think we breakin' up (breakin' up)
And I'm just on some boyfriend girlfriend shit
I think we've had enough (had enough)
Like, I can't hear ya (hear ya)
I'm falling out of love
I'm tryna work it out
But we got a disconnect
I'm tryna work it out
But we got a disconnect, yeah
Love is not strugglin' to tell you, "I love you"
Or you say your music's above ya
I do this shit here 'cause I need
I need you, but you couldn't see, so
I'm out here, listening to monster
Heartbreak sponsor, smoking on the ganja, yeah (yeah)
No, I don't have no time left to care
Spare, or share
You done made Cupid aim away
A bow and arrow could take the pain away
You done made Cupid aim away
A bow and arrow could take the pain away
But I don't wanna piss you off
I ain't tryna make you yell
Girl, why you wanna kick me out of my natural element?
Girl, I don't wanna piss you off
No, I ain't tryna make you yell
Why you wanna kick me outta my natural element?
I'm tryna work it out
Niggas be so motherfucking quick to talk about
"Oh, I want a bitch that's loyal, I want a bitch that's loyal"
And it's like, damn, nigga!
What the fuck you think these bitches want from y'all niggas? Period!
The fuck? Y'all to be the first ones talkin' 'bout loyalty
But be the first ones to fold on a bitch
in a motherfucking hot second!
Like, damn, nigga, you can't hold it down for two seconds?
Hold your dick down, nigga
I'm holding my pussy down
I'm keeping my pussy to myself, keep your dick to yourself, nigga
That's mine! The fuck?
I don't like to share, period!
