Writing [Intro] Yeah… Uh… Late nights, cold hearts… Ain’t no love where I’m from. [Verse 1] I came from the dark, now the dark know my name, Cold-ass nights, had me numb to the pain. Bro said “trust,” but trust got me betrayed, Now I keep that shit tucked, stay out the way. Too much smoke, I can’t see through the haze, 808 slide when I step on the stage. Fuck fake love, I can see through the face, If it ain’t about the money, get the fuck out my space. [Chorus] Cold heart, dark nights, I’m still outside, Too much pain, I got nowhere to hide. Fuck love, fuck trust, I’m just chasing mine, If I fall tonight, I’ma rise by sunrise. [Vocal Cut] Rise… rise… Fuck love… Outside… side… side… [Verse 2] I don't talk too much, let the bassline speak, Heavy on my chest, but I still don’t sleep. They wanna see me fall, but I’m ten toes deep, Came from nothing, now the whole damn street know me. [Verse 3 — Aggressive] Don't get close, I don't trust no face, Came from the mud, now I'm setting the pace. Talk that shit, better watch what you say, I been through hell, I ain't breaking today. Fuck fake friends, fuck snakes in the grass, I cut that shit off, leave 'em stuck in the past. Bass hit hard, make the whole room shake, 808 slide when the whole floor break. Too much pressure, but I still won't fold, Heart gone numb, now the blood run cold. They want my spot, better come get yours, I came for the crown — now I'm kicking down doors. [Final Chorus] Cold heart, dark nights, I’m still outside, Too much pain, I got nowhere to hide. Fuck love, fuck trust, I’m just chasing mine, If I fall tonight, I’ma rise by sunrise. [Final Chorus — Repeat] Cold heart, dark nights, I’m still outside, Too much pain, I got nowhere to hide. Fuck love, fuck trust, I’m just chasing mine, If I fall tonight, I’ma rise by sunrise. [Outro — Instrumental — 808 slides… Eerie pads…] Tight vocal cuts: “Outside… side… side…” [Instrumental fades]
