Nightfall

Coming down South Bay Bridge like a waterfall
I never fell off this bad, never had a relapse, yeah
Driving through the traffic on a steady night, side of the fringe
Everything ain't that sad, God is just mad
He told me: Son, speak when there is no light
He let the Sun creep up in through my blinds
He loves his children even though we lie
Tactless extortion, it play in my mind
And love isn't kind, it cannot cheat but it hurts me to try
Why do I spend all my time on these people
Who drive me insane and succumb me to evil?
Can I be loved if I lack the retrieval?
Can I see God if I step on the sepal?
Can I confess? I see less than I feel, though

I wait for nightfall to move me
Cause I've been having a blue day
And there ain't nothing about it, no
That could keep me from losing
Faith in the journey

Love me until I can't sleep no more
Plug me until I deplete the source
Hold me until all my demons gone
Or at least till dawn
Lord sent you flowers but you just declined
Patience a virtue, I speak into time
Manifestations all topple and die
Talk with a stranger, it might free your mind
Running real late from the studio
Riding way back in a limousine
Tryna get tickets to the trap door
Tryna get my vision on a big screen
I don't really know it and I can't really tell you
I could really stay if you wanna step in my brain
Set forth your rays, pill up my veins
Nightfall got a calling but I'm chucking up the commas
And I'm high above the law, doe, with my secrets in a bottle
I'ma never cease the throttle even when my day is awful
If they try to run my way, I'ma lead 'em to the Gospel

I wait for nightfall to move me
Cause I've been having a blue day
And there ain't nothing about it
That could keep me from losing
Faith in the journey

I've been down inside
I ain't proud but it's suiting me
Running with my woes to the sky
It ain't new to me
Laying in the sand, I can't plan
Y'all ain't fooling me
Wonder what they're saying
Or now what they're gonna do to me
I've been living, living, living right, yeah
Never question things, I just arrive, yeah
Love the rush it gives and I'm alive
Y'all will never ever take my pride
I wait for nightfall to move me
