lyrics

I wanna return to water, that city in the sea.

The tide has turned to maelstrom, that never bothered me.

The salt doesn’t taste to bitter on my tongue, it was wrapped in silver when I screamed at you.

The flowers I held were wilted, the sand underneath kept shifting, out.

(Overnight overnight overnight)

Over night.

Over night.

OVER NIGHT.

over night.

Things Gon change, Overnight.

Over night

over night.

Things gon change.

(overnight)

Overnight..

Over night…

Faux fur when the cold bite.
Sparks fly when the gold strike.
Niggas dying for a gold brick.

Clock in then you code switch.

Over night.
Overnight.

Clock in then you switch back. Niggas out here with the riff raft.
12 chirping on the dispatch.
If you want it you can get that.

If you want it you can get that (Over night)

All this lava for a rough cut, new designer on me don’t you touch touch.
Black Balto howling on an Alpine, yelling mush mush, we a rough bunch. Regret a lot but I don’t lose sleep.
Words reach but don’t cut deep.
I remember I was 16, I was worried that they wouldn’t get me.

Pull up on you round 6p, with a 6 speed, moving risky. Keep a shawl on so they miss me when they try to go and 86 me. I was out in Brooklyn, tryna find myself. Out in Hollywood tryna catch a wave. Ducking dodging shade, never duck a comma never duck a fade. Heard it’s up today. All this pressure on me, make me suffocate, all these levels on me, gotta talk to god. Nary water wings had to flutter kick In the lake of fire pray I oxidize. This hit for the real ones, know the lil homies might kill sumn, tell em chill some, if we move in units we can build sumn. Overnight..
