The Pale Moonlight Lyrics

Hear me out
Give no fucks, getting busy out the cut (huh)
Nigga, what? And we do it to 'em, it's a video
Sing the song, shy nigga, but I think she pretty (ah)
So it's on, baby (yeah)
Call to the lost, we deep, deep (huh)
Had it all twisted dead wrong (yeah)
How do I find what I can't see? (Nigga)
Lord I was born to be strong (hey)
Yes, yes, before I'm stress, I gotta get that feeling
This is just a sweet interlude, na-na

Amen, and the dices throw, they come in winning (yeah)
What's this? Hating? (yeah), got no time on boy (yeah)
Nah man, no one could've saved me (mmh)
Look around to see the shit made me (huh)

They think they know me, I think not
Hey, see me I control the plot
Mmh, healing but I'm living with some things, shit'll never stop
Yeah, caught in the moonlight
In the mirror, used to hate what I see
Mmh, healing but I'm dealing with some things, shit'll never stop

Just another Monday burning Indica with my bros
See them lames they rolling, smoking mid, not me, kid (yeah)
Never trip, I'll burn that clip then run it back, call playback
Haters crumble, I'm their enemy, crazy fucker, no don't envy, get that, ooh
I'm the only nigga standing, no no, this ain't Henny
In the days with tars and fire, ooh, I survived what many do (do)
And now we found new ground
Phony like the camera 'round
Bitches wanna cuff me, wow
And I'm feelin' whole, who would've thought for me?
See, nobody knows, still this hell on me (yeah)
Catch me dip then drown, mind racing, red, red ribbon (yeah)
She won't count me out, zoomin' while I count my blessings (Ooh)

Something's off, I can feel it (yeah)
My angel's gone (shh), and I'm fucking loaded (ha)
Nah, man, no one could've saved me (mmh)
I look around and see the shit made me (yeah)

They think they know me, I think not
Hey, see me I control the plot
Mmh, healing but I'm living with some things, shit'll never stop
Yeah, caught in the moonlight
In the mirror, used to hate what I see
Mmh, healing but I'm dealing with some things, shit'll never stop

Yeah, yeah
Mmh
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Yeah, hmm
Mmh
Na-na-na-na, na
Ka-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
