Afterglow Lyrics by Tkay Maidza

TKAY

2016

[Chorus]
Where did everybody go?
Where did everybody go?
I'm still standing on my own
Basking in the afterglow
Where did everybody go?
Quick they come and fast they go
I'm still standing on my own
Wait too long, you'll miss the outro

[Verse 1]
I'm shifting the gears, I'm clearing all the angles
Told you that you should watch, now my zone has no tangles
Now bright as the day, their talking is ample
They said I was falling off 'til I left them having like bangles
(Why they?)
Saying numbers, they never move the ball
(Why they?)
Picture places I see them hot and cold
(What they think)
Isn't real they were out when it was told
They doing chinese whispers, telling tales to fit the mold

[Chorus]
Where did everybody go?
Where did everybody go?
I'm still standing on my own
Basking in the afterglow
Where did everybody go?
Quick they come and fast they go
I'm still standing on my own
Wait too long, you'll miss the outro

[Verse 2]
I'll take advantage
Land on these people
They in Atlantis
They pray for magic
I just be in it
Straight edge, not manic
Panic, sheep, they panic
Look for light in the stables
Might have to show the diff'
I'm moving up the cable
I've seen it-seen it and been frustrated-strated
Focused only, attention will not be catered
Save it, save it, seeing, seeing no one
I go in, I'm super saiyan
Never playing, they blaming
Can't contain it if I'm rested
It's looking dangerous

[Chorus]
Where did everybody go?
Where did everybody go?
I'm still standing on my own
Basking in the afterglow
Where did everybody go?
Quick they come and fast they go
I'm still standing on my own
Wait too long, you'll miss the outro

[Chorus]
Where did everybody go?
Where did everybody go?
I'm still standing on my own
Basking in the afterglow
Where did everybody go?
Quick they come and fast they go
I'm still standing on my own
Wait too long, you'll miss the outro

[Verse 3]
Chances you can find me is a needle right in the haystack
Too busy looking up they're coming at me with payback
If you're not making sense, then come back when you have status
And keep it quiet
Chances you can find me is a needle right in the haystack
Too busy looking up they're coming at me with payback
If you're not making sense, then come back when you have status
And keep it quiet

[Chorus]
Where did everybody go?
Where did everybody go?
I'm still standing on my own
Basking in the afterglow
Where did everybody go?
Quick they come and fast they go
I'm still standing on my own
Wait too long, you'll miss the outro

[Outro]
(Awah, ooh)
Where did everybody go?
(Awah-wah)
Quick they come and fast they go
(Awah, ooh)
Where did everybody go?
(Awah-wah)
Wait too long, you'll- (ooh)
