Day Glow

(album: To Kill A Sunrise - 2021)

Are you on the way home?
I be in the backyard
Basking in the dayglow
Staring at the stars (Statik Selektah)
Taking in the sun rain
Open up the front door
Open up the windows
And let it all in
Uh

I'm on a road trip, passing by twenty miles of ocean
Reminiscing of when I was stuck on my mama's sofa
Cabin in the Catskills, please do not approach us
Kept the past here while I'm sipping on mimosas
Watching the coyotes as I'm sparking up the flame
In a little town where nobody know my name
Think I'm turning up, really, it's more of all the same
'Til that shit get too redundant and I gotta get away
Got a lot of people secrets that I'm taking to my grave
It's a credit to my memory slowly starting to fade
Every day I'm steadily striving to be a better me
Gotta get up and get to the promises that I made
To myself, better health, adding zeros to my wealth
Bigger crib with some space for my kid to run and play
When you ask me how I'm doing and I say I'm doing great
I'm just saying that I'm steady pushing forward every day, like

Are you on the way home?
I be in the backyard
Basking in the dayglow
Staring at the stars
Taking in the sun rain
Open up the front door
Open up the windows
And let it all in

I just want a house in my city with like a ton of grass
Kicking soccer balls with my kiddies whenever summer's back
You don't ever see me like fifties, they throwing shade and they miss me
I'm never racing shit, I'm saving my stimmy
I got a lot to lose but I don't got a lot to prove
Misery and debt is a decision and you got to choose
I'm simply washing my dishes and taking in the view
I got this woman and she something to see
She make me feel like I'm the guy I always wanted to be
I put my ego on the shelf so she can love me for free
My son is getting older, attitude, he's sucking his teeth
Until I come around, I'm finna turn this prince to a king
And every day is Saturday, we ain't staying mad today
Don't sit at my table if you hating, we congratulate
And be authentic, 'cause this is not a masquerade
Over here, the sun is shining crazy on a average day

Are you on the way home?
I be in the backyard
Basking in the dayglow
Staring at the stars
Taking in the sun rain
Open up the front door
Open up the windows
And let it all in

Let it all in
Let it all in
Let it all in
Let it all in

Let it all in
