You left the compass where we buried the sky
In the place with the three old trees remember why?
The colors in the rain but not on our shoes
You said we'd never speak but here’s a clue

When the wind blew south did you see the lights?
I hid the words between those sleepless nights
But I can’t let the earth spin when you’re near
So I’ll swallow the words you’ll never hear

Oh the sun never set in that room
I’ll write it in stars but not too soon
We both know what the shadows mean
The clock’s hands froze when you entered the scene
But I’ll never tell you I’ll never let it show
In the silence we speak what no one knows

We folded the page left the message in dust
The book we found the one we trust
You gave me that look under the seventh moon
But how can I speak when the world’s in tune?

When the wind blew south did you see the lights?
I hid the words between those sleepless nights
But I can’t let the earth spin when you’re near
So I’ll swallow the words you’ll never hear

Oh the sun never set in that room
I’ll write it in stars but not too soon
We both know what the shadows mean
The clock’s hands froze when you entered the scene
But I’ll never tell you I’ll never let it show
In the silence we speak what no one knows

And every time you blink the world stands still
I’ll say it without words you know I will
Behind the moments we pretend to miss
I hide the storm inside a single kiss

Oh the sun never set in that room
I’ll write it in stars but not too soon
We both know what the shadows mean
The clock’s hands froze when you entered the scene
But I’ll never tell you I’ll never let it show
In the silence we speak what no one knows

In that place under skies we drew
Only we understand only me and you

[Intro]
Yeah
Uh
Listen

You say nothing still I hear it
Every move got its own meaning
Eyes talk first lips stay quiet
Room reacts when you get near it

No small talk no explanation
Body language translation

Don’t slow down don’t overthink
I read you faster than you blink

Don’t talk talk
Just move like that (like that)
Say less less
I’m cool with that (with that)

Don’t talk talk
Your hands do facts (do facts)
I see it all
When you move like that (yeah)

[Post-Chorus]
Left right
Pause rewind
One look
I’m already aligned

Every step feels intentional
Like you planned it accidental
No directions still you lead
I just follow what you mean

Crowd fades out when you step in
Whole place locked on your rhythm

No need words to complicate
I already got the message

Don’t talk talk
Just move like that (like that)
Say less less
I’m cool with that (with that)

Don’t talk talk
Your hands do facts (do facts)
I see it all
When you move like that (yeah)

[Bridge – Male Vocal / Spoken-Rap]
Hold up
She don’t speak she demonstrate
Every move communicate
No delay she regulate
Whole room shift when she rotate

I don’t guess I calculate
Every sign she generate
She don’t need to elevate
She arrive she dominate

Clap it
Stomp it
Freeze
Go

[Final Chorus]
Don’t talk talk (don’t talk)
Just move like that (move like that)
Say less less (say less)
I’m cool with that (yeah)

Don’t talk talk (don’t talk)
Your hands do facts (do facts)
I see it all
When you move like that (move like that)

No words
Still clear
You said it all
Right here

I was on the block
With my people every day
Tryna get a dollar in a hundred different ways
Tell 'em I was hot
I just had to get away
And they tell me
"Brother
What about the old good days?"

I was on the block
With my people every day
Tryna get a dollar in a hundred different ways
Tell 'em I was hot
I just had to get away
And they tell me
"Brother
What about the old good days?"

They want that old me back
Now that version in the past
When I was a young kid
I just wanted me a bag

On the corner with my people
In the middle of the night
Everybody moving careful
Just trying to make it right

Man I been hot
I been on my own thing
Riding with a Taurus
I was on some horoscope thing

All my people winning
Man we don't ever forfeit
Me and my people never moving on no weak stuff

I'm in this place with my woadies
I'm in this place with my homies
I'm in this place with the people
That really been down
And the ones that really been knowing me

I'm in this place with the people
That said they would ride for me
And the ones that would've stood with me

I'm in this place with the people
That told me I couldn't do it
But now I be doing me

I'm on a different type time
Girl you know I been on my grind
Tryna move all of my people up out the hood
Get 'em out of the bind

I know that all of my people got demons
But that's why I keep all my angels around
I told all my people
"If you hold me down
Then I'ma hold you down"

I was on the block
With my people every day
Tryna get a dollar in a hundred different ways
Tell 'em I was hot
I just had to get away
And they tell me
"Brother
What about the old good days?"

I was on the block
With my people every day
Tryna get a dollar in a hundred different ways
Tell 'em I was hot
I just had to get away
And they tell me
"Brother
What about the old good days?"

I was on the block
I was on the block
Tell 'em I was hot
And they tell me
"Brother
What about the old good days?"

I was on the block
Tell 'em I was hot
And they tell me
"Brother
What about the old good days?"

I found it in a Sunday ad
Between a sofa and a wedding band
“Barely used no questions asked”
The seller wore a borrowed name

He said it worked on jealous hearts
On hotel clerks and parking guards
I paid in cash he wished me luck
Then vanished before the light changed

I practiced every detail
The hour the street the rain
But truth has lousy manners
It keeps interrupting names

I bought a secondhand alibi
Cheap enough to fit my life
It worked until you asked me twice
Now every version sounds like mine

I bought a secondhand alibi
With someone else’s reasons inside
The story held the timing died
Now every version sounds like mine

I said the train was running late
You knew that line from ’98
I blamed a man I’d never met
You said “At least invent him well”

I moved the evening half an hour
Changed the bar replaced the car
By then the lie had better shoes
And more ambition than the truth

I gave it dates and weather
A witness and a scar
You watched me build the ceiling
Then asked where the foundations are

I bought a secondhand alibi
Cheap enough to fit my life
It worked until you asked me twice
Now every version sounds like mine

I bought a secondhand alibi
With someone else’s reasons inside
The story held the timing died
Now every version sounds like mine

Mine on Monday
Mine by five
Mine when I need
Someone else to survive

The seller called at 2:13
Said “That excuse belongs to me”
I told him he could have it back
He laughed and said “You made it yours”

You poured your drink into the sink
Not angry almost entertained
You said “The worst part isn’t this
It’s how rehearsed you look in pain”

So here’s the part I didn’t buy
No clever date no useful guy
I stayed because I liked the risk
I left because you noticed it

No missing train no broken phone
No nameless friend to take the blame
I wanted two incompatible things
And called confusion by your name

I bought a secondhand alibi
Cheap enough to fit my life
It worked until you asked me why
Now every version sounds like mine

I bought a secondhand alibi
But guilt was never in the price
Keep the story keep the night
Every version sounds like mine

The truth was sitting in the car
Patient as an unpaid fare
I opened up the passenger door
It said “You took your time”

Every win costs more than it shows
Smiles on screens but nobody knows
Counting steps in designer doubt
Applause fades when the lights go out

All that shine (yeah)
burns cold by dawn (so cold)
Still I move (keep it movin’)
still I’m gone (I’m gone I’m gone)

I built a world from nothing at all (from the ground up)
Paved my name on a silent wall (can you see it?)
They cheer the rise not the climb (uh-huh)
But I’ve been bleeding into time (so deep so long)

[Instrumental Break]

Phone full of names I don’t call
Rooms packed tight but I feel small
I keep my truth behind gold frames
Success is a house with shifting names

All that shine (yeah)
burns cold by dawn (so cold)
Still I move (keep it movin’)
still I’m gone (I’m gone I’m gone)

I built a world from nothing at all (from the ground up)
Paved my name on a silent wall (can you see it?)
They cheer the rise not the climb (uh-huh)
But I’ve been bleeding into time (so deep so long)

Don’t envy thrones you’ve never sat
You won’t feel full chasing that

I built a world from nothing at all
Paved my name on a silent wall
They cheer the rise not the climb

Why does it hurt
To hope? (Mmm ooh ooh ooh)
Why does it hurt?
(Let it out)
To hope? (Ayy ayy)
Why does it hurt
Why does it hurt?
(Ooh ooh ooh)

I love you like the segments
On the news
Cut between the stories of the hood
The heroes
And the glues
Seen and see-through
I could
Read the room
The sky turned red
The stage was vast
The moon took center view
And so did you

Why does it hurt
To hope? (Mmm ooh ooh ooh)
Why does it hurt?
(Let it out)
To hope?
(Ayy ayy)
Why does it hurt?

Why I'm supposed to hope
That things will change?
Keep thinkin' things will settle
As I get older with age
Huh but nothin's never been the same
So in the meantime
Might as well let 'em know my name
And I ain't gon' waste a second

So baby
Show me somethin' that I need for now
I don't mean to use you till I turn around
But maybe you might find you wanna stick
Around

Got so many skeletons inside my closet
That I don't go past October
'Cause if I start lookin' around
Might not come back till the fall is over
Like ooh ooh ooh

Shadows dance where the skyline bends
Concrete veins with a life that blends
A thousand faces stories collide
Searching for meaning in the great divide

Fingers trace lines on a screen of glass
Moments captured but they never last
Every heartbeat a fragile thread
Holds the weight of words unsaid

We’re chasing the rhythm of a fleeting spark
Lost in the noise but lighting the dark
We build we break we rise we fall
A silent anthem for us all

Breath of dawn paints a fragile hue
Between the old and the sudden new
Dreams dissolve then reappear
Mapping the scars we’ve learned to wear

Waves crash loud on the shores of change
Pulling us closer but the tides rearrange
Every heartbeat a fragile thread
Holds the weight of words unsaid

We’re chasing the rhythm of a fleeting spark
Lost in the noise but lighting the dark
We build we break we rise we fall
A silent anthem for us all

Voices hum in a quiet refrain
Echoes of what we can’t explain
The stars above the ground below
Both hold secrets we’ll never know

And when the ashes fall like snow
Will we learn what we didn’t show?
The past is a mirror the future a flame
We’re reflections playing the same game

We’re chasing the rhythm of a fleeting spark
Lost in the noise but lighting the dark
We build we break we rise we fall
A silent anthem for us all

Fading whispers of where we’ve been
A fragile cycle begins again

We could be from anywhere
But I want the right approach
Could be what you never thought
Could be what you thought the most

I could use a dinner date
I wanna eat you raw
Now take a look at me
Tell me what you saw

Would you wanna be off for the summer?
Out in the country
Drivin' a Hummer
We could be getting my number
My name is Eve and I'm just a soul you couldn't handle
Would you wanna be off?

Could share with me a memory
Or win me a teddy bear
Could you be something I can't be
Or something we all were

(Could be) It's not you
It's me
Or maybe it's him
But don't believe anything
If it goes on a whim

Would you wanna be off for the summer?
Out in the country
Drivin' a Hummer
We could be getting my number
My name is Eve and I'm just a soul you couldn't handle
Would you wanna be off?

A manatee
Amnesty
Deodorant
Detorant
Casanova
Castanova
Here's another
Here's another

Would you wanna be off for the summer?
Out in the country
Drivin' a Hummer
We could be getting my number
My name is Eve and I'm just a soul you couldn't handle
Would you wanna be off?

Cracked screen no calls today
Left the charger on the train
They said time would wash it out
But my clock’s been playing games

Can’t decode your morse-like moods
Every tone’s a sharp excuse
I lit fires you never saw
Guess it’s time to cut it loose

Let me breathe without your shadow (ah)
Every step I’m climbing higher (yeah)
Didn’t fold didn’t borrow
I’m the spark I’m the lighter
(wooh ay-ay let it burn)

Calendar full of crossed-out plans
Turned the silence into stance
No parade no grand goodbyes
But I danced inside the crash

Used to bend till I dissolved
Now I sculpt from where I broke
This new world don’t need your laws
I evolve and I revoke

Let me breathe without your shadow (mmm)
Every step I’m climbing higher (uh)
Didn’t fold didn’t borrow
I’m the spark I’m the lighter
(yeah-yeah wooh let it burn)

Ooh-ohh ohh
No more codes to crack
I’m off this map

Well it goes on and on my friend
We can't pretend
We knew it was love
I mean a friend of a friend of a friend
Started singing this song
So we decided to join in
And we'll keep singing it
The way we did before
And you can sing along

And you can sing it
My song
You can sing it
My song
You can sing it
My song
You can sing it

Goes on and on and on my friend
And if you pretend
You knew it was love
Then you knew you were wrong
'Cause it never ends
You just started to sing along
And we'll keep singing it
The way we did before
And you can sing along

And you can sing it
My song
You can sing it
My song
You can sing it
My song
You can sing it
