Sunset

I feel I come alive up in the nighttime
Searching through the dark for a pipeline
Yeah

My thoughts be wandering and I just can't figure it out
But sometimes you gotta try to figure it out
Yeah

I feel I come alive up in the nighttime
Searching through the dark for a pipeline
I used to think forever was a lifetime
I hate the clock, 'cause we cannot rewind time

I feel I come alive up in the nighttime
Searching through the dark for a pipeline
I used to think forever was a lifetime
I hate the clock, 'cause we cannot rewind time
I used to think forever was lifetime
I hate the clock, 'cause we cannot rew-, yeah

I've been searchin' for something greater
Feel like I fell up into a crater
I've been tryna reap the fruit of all my labor
Got rotten from all the haters
The common denominator
I slide up under the radar, uh
They switchin' sides, I see the traitors, uh
How many lives gotta go pay the full, price
I might cry now if I let it
I write down poetic despite my esthetic

Bringin' nighttime vibes in the mornin' (in the mornin')
Thank God I'm alive in the mornin' (in the mornin')
I be searching for the signs when I'm lonely
Wish I can get the time with the homies (yeah, yeah)
Memories archived in the moment (yeah, yeah)

Loved ones lost, see, they died in the moment
So I cried in the moment, then I tried to get over
But I can't when I'm sober, I be lyin' if I told you
That the pain goes away
A goodbye the hardest thing you ever gon' say
Please don't try if you know me
I might slide with the homies
Only time can dethrone me, yeah yeah

And this shit's just the life I know
Trapped by the vice we owe
Tryna be free tho
Life hurts, face scars like Al Pacino
Sippin' Pino
Pray for relief I never seen tho
Never empty the chamber, 'cause time will not ever reload

I feel I come alive up in the nighttime
Searching through the dark for a pipeline
I used to think forever was a lifetime
I hate the clock, 'cause we cannot rewind time

I feel I come alive up in the nighttime
Searching through the dark for a pipeline
I used to think forever was a lifetime
I hate the clock, 'cause we cannot rewind time

I used to think forever was lifetime
I hate the clock, 'cause we cannot rew-, yeah
I used to think forever was lifetime, yeah, yeah

You know at night sometimes your mind can run a mile a minute
As you indulgin' on those thoughts that you had other day
But sometimes we have to learn to cherish the moment
Cherish the moment that we livin' in right now
And at times those realizations don't even come until the Sun sets
So I create and I paint this vivid picture
Of this fictional world I call Nocturnal
In here you can release the stresses of the world
I scribble my thoughts and slay every demon with the flick of a pen
And while everyone else is sleepin', I stay awake
Why? Shit, that's a good question
I used to think forever was lifetime
