Night Off

(album: Sunrise - 2022)

If it's free to dream then tell me what good is this salary?
Too much damn noise, hush the peanut gallery
It's Monday in reality but living like it's Saturday
You'll lose your destination if you let it drain your battery

I'm charged up!
I owe it to my family and what's inside this cup
A wild imagination that won't ever be caught
I got a lead foot that'll never be stopped

I hope you don't mind if I light one
I need an antidote when I'm hyped up
Still got my body armor on
'Cause I been fighting, all I want is a night off

So Imma hop in the whip, make a store run
I daydream more when I pour one
Still got my body armor on
'Cause I been fighting way too long for the right one

Kick your feet up, take a load off
Roll the weed up, get the soda stat
Margaritas on the boat dock by the beach hut
Is where my soul relax
Educated on the pavement
Left the classroom, but I never ever made it back
Spent my days just getting faded
To my past and my future, I raise a glass

So ooh
I've got so much I'd still like to do
I promise that I'll always remain true
To my mission and my bets
Until my craziest goals are met
And my people all set

I hope you don't mind if I light one
I need an antidote when I'm hyped up
Still got my body armor on
'Cause I been fighting, all I want is a night off

So Imma hop in the whip, make a store run
I daydream more when I pour one
Still got my body armor on
'Cause I been fighting way too long for the right one
