Somehow we gotta find a way

No matter how many miles it takes

I know it feels so good right now

But it all come falling down

When the night, meet the light

Turn to day

Can't stop, yeah, you won't stop

I know just how that feel

When you're on top, 'til the ball drop

You've never seen it be so real

It feels so good right now

But it all come falling down

When the night, meets the light

Turn to day

Feel it a little, feel it a lot

I'm swimming a bit, but deeper in thought

Keeping my head on top of my shoulders

Into some shit, I'm out of the box

This the level I'm on

Needing it all right now when forever is gone

Baby, the weather is strong

Whether it's hot or cold

I'm coming, knocking on your door

Well, I'ma, I'ma maintain, I'm staying so high

Put the ladder all the way up 'til we touching the sky

And you know you're dead wrong, you're in love with a lie

All I, all I, all I wanna do is free your mind

We don't see no lines, we don't color inside

It's a very small world, we don't fuck with the size

Yeah, see the bigger picture when it's beneficial

Loving how I catch you blow the whistle when you run out of time

Yeah, waking up I open up my eyes

Do you mind if I blow your mind?

A little closer, baby, don't be shy

Why you worried that it's gon' be fine?

I guess it's that kinda day

It's really all I'm tryna say

We don't have a lot of time to waste

Somehow we gotta find a way

Somehow we gotta find a way

No matter how many miles it takes

I know it feels so good right now

But it all comes falling down

When the night, meet the light

Turn to day

I wouldn't wait forever

Just shoot your shot

We don't need no more, no extras

We all we got

Yeah, yeah

All the lights flickering hitting the right switches

I'm living this life different and missing the flight bullshitting

I had a plan to change, you can't stand the rain

Little delay, but I came and you're cool with it

I don't trip, flip or lose my grip

And I don't know it all, but I do know this

Before you know me, better know yourself

I've been in this shit so long that it don't smell

I burn the hotel to a castle

Livin' like the king for a grand

I don't do nothin' that's a hassle

Besides, even that castle's made of sand

Just might slip into the sea

Fuck it all if it all ain't me

Maybe we inside the maze

Somehow we gotta find a way, okay

Somehow we gotta find a way

No matter how many miles it takes

I know it feels so good right now

But it all comes falling down

When the night, meet the light

Turn to day

I wouldn't wait forever

Just shoot your shot

We don't need no more, no extras

We all we got
