Nightlights Lyrics by Anto the Wayward

Chasing Daisy: An Intermission

2019

[Verse 1]
(Like, like, like, like, like)
It's the way that
It’s the way that
I see the world from these streets
Shit feel like HD, (damn)
Said, I'm just, another, goofy, lil' nigga
Wapanese I'm fitted in tight blue jeans
My deadpool jacket and trefoil feet
Crush these leaves I feel like
Me, being free, feels like, Paul D
Beloved but the shed I sleep
Can’t shed they sleep
The door's locked
I say they locking the doors for now
Ain't got a key, to buy a key
Please tell me what I need
To find the me, to finally be, family
Akon, I'm so lonely
I just wanna be accepted

[Hook]
Really wanna be on a city rooftop
They be nightlights glowing low, (yeah)
I don’t want to let go, (no)
I see the world from these streets
Shit been feel like it's HD, (damn)
But I don’t want to let go, (no)
My mind keeps on spinning
Where will it take me
I don't want to let go

[Verse 2]
Do this shit for the, naysayers
The ones that said
Mama left me and Artie on the stairs
You weren't there, why you care
We the only niggas with nappy heads to feed your fears
We were never like that
We were more Urkel, wit' a little Phil
Fresh Prince, yeah we like that
Family matters, lower middle class
Mama hypes that, can’t fight that
If you do, she gone bite back
Soul city, my soul's fading, it’s so pretty
In all of me can I still be my dream vivid
I can paint it but can’t see it
Please

[Bridge]
Someone tell me am I going blind
My life a blessing in disguise
I see the puzzle pieces where they lie
Everything the light touches my pride
The darkness my eyes
Focal points too small to find

[Hook]
Really wanna be on a city rooftop
They be nightlights glowing low, (yeah)
I don’t want to let go, (no)
I see the world from these streets
Shit been feel like it's HD, (damn)
But I don’t want to let go, (no)
My mind keeps on spinning
Where will it take me
I don't want to let go

[Verse 3]
I don't want to let go of the pain
The fear of seeing mama and Artimus fadin' away
It's gon' happen one day
But I don't want to let it go, let it go
I don't want to let go of my dream
Standing on stage
Hearing them scream my name
What is my name?
I don't want to let it go, let it go, (no)
I just wanna be me, be me
I just wanna be free, to see
What in life I
What in life I
What in life, I can achieve
And I don’t think they want me to leave
Day ones they stuck on the scene
Nightmares, (nightmares)
Nightmares, (nightmares)
Don't think they can sleep

[Hook]
Really wanna be on a city rooftop
They be nightlights glowing low, (yeah)
I don’t want to let go, (no)
I see the world from these streets
Shit been feel like it's HD, (damn)
But I don’t want to let go, (no)
My mind keeps on spinning
Where will it take me
I don't want to let go
