Late night vinyl with the window cracked open
City lights flicker while the whole block smokin’
Heartbreak floatin’ in the bassline motion
Still dance slow like the pain stay golden
She said “don’t leave,” but the cab kept rollin’
Half truth texts got the screen light glowin’
I laugh loud just to hide what’s broken
Soul got scars but the chain still frozen
Old school drums with the mellow progression
Mama said pride turn love to a weapon
I was outside learnin’ life through tension
Now every bar sound deep like confessions
Ash on the denim, jazz in the speakers
Lost a few friends to the chase for sneakers
Dreams get sold when the rent due cheaper
Everybody gang ‘til the room get quieter
Neon reflections all over the puddles
We was young kids makin’ kings outta struggles
Cheap champagne, still toastin’ accomplishments
Sad eyes hidden behind dark sunglasses
She move smooth with a disco elegance
Gold hoops swing with the beat and resonance
I write pain but the cadence heaven-sent
Broke boys prayin’ one hit bring relevance
Missed calls stack while I’m chasin’ deadlines
Tryna make art that survive through hard times
Grandpa told me every star got dark sides
So I keep soul in the bars and the punchlines
Rain on the rooftop matched the percussion
Love turned cold from the lack of discussion
Now my whole crew got trust interruption
Still we toast to the nights we had nothin’
Low rider dreams with the tape deck humming
Hustlers outside hear the train tracks drummin’
I seen fake love turn real when the funds in
Then disappear when the champagne done with
But I still ride through the city with passion
Old wounds stitched into lyrical fashion
Slow groove bounce while the heartbreak flashing
“Oh honey” vibes with a soul rap adaptation
