[Verse 1]
I came in clean, you came in loud
Now they all lean when I step in the crowd
Gold on my wrist, but my mind stay sharp
Big dream talk with a small-town heart
You want the smoke, I want the glow
I move too smooth when the doubts move slow
Blue in my veins, but I go for the red
Keep one eye open, keep one foot ahead
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold up, wait
You know my name
I don’t fade
I just change the lane
Hold up, wait
Feel that sway
I break the frame
Then I sing your pain
[Chorus]
Stay with me
Stay with me
I turn the dark to a melody
Stay with me
Stay with me
You can’t outrun this energy
[Beat Switch 1]
Tick-tick, roll with it
Backpack bounce, I’m sold with it
Hands up high, let the whole room hum
One more time, now the hook go dumb
[Verse 2]
I was in the back with a plastic cup
While the whole room froze, I was building it up
Now every move got a little more flash
Every old doubt got a little less bash
Black on black when I slide through slow
White tee fresh and I still got glow
Say my name, I might answer right back
One for the pain, two for the comeback
[Chorus]
Stay with me
Stay with me
I turn the dark to a melody
Stay with me
Stay with me
You can’t outrun this energy
[Beat Switch 2]
Uh, now it drop low
Cold stare, but the hook still warm
Run that phrase, let it circle the block
Heart too loud when I cut that stop
[Bridge]
If I lose my way, I find my tone
If you feel that pull, you’re not alone
I been through the rain, I came out gold
Now I turn that ache into something bold
[Beat Switch 3]
Half-time steps with a late-night sway
Voice in the pocket, let the whole thing play
Ooh, don’t blink, that change too clean
Same old truth in a new machine
[Beat Switch 4]
Final lift, let the pulse run wide
Hands to the sky, let the last note ride
Stay with me
Stay with me
I turn the dark to a melody
