(Verse 1)
Yeah, another night, another flight I probably shouldn't be on
Got a view of the city I built this legacy upon
You sending texts at 3 a.m. 'cause you saw I was online
Talking 'bout the old times, talking 'bout what you find
When you search my name and shock yourself with how much has changed
Used to be so simple, now it's complicated, I guess that's strange
You remember the condo on the east side, the one near the water?
Now I'm making moves you can't trace, decisions getting harder
I used to make the anthems, the ones for the real ones
Now I just make deposits and pray I don't lose the feel, hun.
(Chorus)
'Cause it's a late text, at the wrong time, on the wrong night
You know the spotlight ain't got no dimmer switch, it's just bright
And I can't be seen with the ghost of a past I had to leave
Used to believe in forever, now I just believe in me
Yeah, just me and the crew, no time for déjà vu
The 6 God, always running, what else am I supposed to do?
(Verse 2)
You ask if I'm happy, that's a question I avoid
My soul with no leak at the seam, but I'm feeling kinda void
I'm either in the studio 'til the sun's out, or I'm overseas
Trying to find some peace of mind, floating on the breeze
They say I'm in my feelings, but I'm just telling the story
Got 'em talking 'bout the big three, man, it's just big me in this category
From the bottom to the top, with no handouts, just my own sound
You want to come back now, when I'm the king of the town?
Nah, this ain't a diss, it's a fact, I'm just laying down the facts
If you're reading this, it's too late, check the plaques
(Chorus)
'Cause it's a late text, at the wrong time, on the wrong night
You know the spotlight ain't got no dimmer switch, it's just bright
And I can't be seen with the ghost of a past I had to leave
Used to believe in forever, now I just believe in me
Yeah, just me and the crew, no time for déjà vu
The 6 God, always running, what else am I supposed to do?
(Bridge)
You got short memories, I got long money
It used to be funny, now it's just kind of tragic
How we went from something real to just a little bit of magic
That faded when the fame came, when the cameras started flashing
Now I'm dodging AI covers and industry plants, the new fashion
Trying to stay authentic, while the whole world keeps on crashing
Around me, but I stand tall, like I'm made of concrete
Still hitting that high note, still blending the R&B
(Outro)
Late text... wrong time.
Yeah.
You know who it is.
OVO Sound, forever.
We out here, always.
Don't hit me in the morning.
Arkh
