Lyrics and translation
Original
I come alive in the night time.
I got tequila, she was sipping on the white wine.
She looks better than when I see her on the timeline.
That's why the haters are hating on the sideline.
When I see them, when I see them, when I see them, when I see them.
When I see them in person, it's all love, though.
Brother man like, "Yo, what gone, dun know? "
Something like, something like, something like.
Something like Quavo, they treat me like the honcho.
She knows, she knows, she knows, she knows.
She knows the city is mine, where you wanna go?
When I walk in the room, please don't get it twisted.
No briefcase, no briefcase, no briefcase.
No briefcase, but you know I mean business.
Every gal are mine, I'ma do it like Chip did.
Tonight's a, tonight's a, tonight's a, tonight's a.
Tonight's a movie, I'm feeling like Idris.
I gotta keep it a buck, I know my children are listening.
I know the system is rigged, but your daddy ain't bitching.
I ain't scared to be the villain 'cause I can't play a victim.
They watch me like a TV show and they're binging. Yeah.
Yo, Fred, I don't think they heard me. London boy, I set trends, I'm early.
Coulda been Mains, coulda been Burberry.
I ain't gotta talk, these girls wanna chirps me. Boyfriends wanna hurt me. I just smile like I just came back from
Turkey. They can't touch me, the gang too certi.
Clean, not nice, but still I play dirty. So don't waste my time, 'cause your gyal on my line.
She was the freak of the week, Monday I be back on my grind.
You put money on my head, but it don't make sense 'cause I been had cash on my mind. They send threats, but really I'm fine.
I dodge rain and I chase sunshine. Grab me a pack and I'm flying.
I jumped off the jet, gave a tip to the pilot.
Gave money to the homeless man and I did it in private.
You can see he's acting for the socials, really he's quiet.
They ain't eating at all, them boys on a diet.
They want a reaction, I'm giving them silence.
Told my brother, "Leave your phones at home when you're giving them violence. "
That's just a little guidance. It's two in the morning, I'm up studying science.
Them boy they're sleeping like violence. I come alive in the night time.
I got tequila, she was sipping on the white wine.
She looks better than when I see her on the timeline.
That's why the haters are hating on the sideline.
When I see them, when I see them, when I see them, when I see them.
When I see them in person, it's all love, though.
Step him up like, "Yo, what gone, dun know? "
Something like Quavo, they treat me like the honcho.
She knows the city is mine, where you wanna go?
