Lyrics and translation
Original
At what cost do I choose myself and put on my armor?
When your loyalty don't serve you or what you need.
At what cost do I lose myself to find you?
And where the moral compass lies.
'Cause I feel you, just living you don't feel alike, do you?
But I guess it's not brand new to act brand new. I just think that's not you.
Mm, mm-mm, mm, mm.
Uh, somebody told me that we broke up.
Now you wanna fly, gettin' paid in the zoo, but it's cool, get your belt run.
I do this sh*t progressively, you do it for the love of the game or to see others think that you ain't fell off.
And I love the way we gel, but I ain't jealous.
Hell nah, I ain't sh*t, look. And I wanna see you heal, but you can care less.
The spark that we once had is headed to your sex.
The city's on fire, burning you out.
The city's on fire, don't be a casualty. The city's on fire, burning you out.
The city's on fire, don't be a casualty.
Yeah,
Walhalla.
Why it's like that word is your second name?
Why your friends that know nothing wanna know everything? Why it's homegirl birthday like every day? Mm,
Walhalla. I make moves into places I don't like to stay.
How you got me out the game and now you tryna play? Straight shots to the face, what you tryna chase?
That be Walhalla. The sh*t you was sayin', you laughin' at all they heart eyes.
The same ones laughin' at me, buyin' you bottles.
The quote-unquote brothers you had tryna be partners. Mm, that be Walhalla.
But f*ck that sh*t, we both can be unbothered. You standin' on the couch in heels and watchin' Martin.
So every -time I hear what's up, I go, "Ha ha.
" -The city's on fire, burning you out. The city's on fire, don't be a casualty.
-Bye-bye for now, baby, have fun. -The city's on fire, burning you out.
-I heard that as well. -The city's on fire, don't be a casualty.
The city's on fire, burning you out.
The city's on fire, don't be a casualty. The city's on fire, burning you out.
The city's on fire.
