[Intro] Yeah… I don’t say it loud, I let it drift… If you know, you know… Watch the sky… [Hook] Smoke signals in the night, I been talkin’ in code Every puff got a message, but it never get told Half truth in the air, let it hover, let it float If it reach you, it’s yours—if it don’t, let it go Smoke signals in the night, I been speakin’ in grey Every cloud got a secret, let it carry away If you read between lines, you can see what I say But the truth gettin’ lost in the resin and haze [Verse 1] Ashes on the balcony, I’m draftin’ my confessions Rolled tight thoughts, twist fate into impressions Exhale regrets, watch ‘em curl into questions Every breath a message, but I mastered suppression Talk slick—lip zipped like a backwood seam Burn slow truths while I act all clean Got a past that cling like the smell on fleece Tryna air it out, but the wind don’t speak I been ghostwriting pain in the vapor trails Every inhale detail, every exhale veils Cloud cover stories that I never unveil Like a diary encrypted in a smoky braille My silence loud, you just don’t decode it Every line double bound, I just don’t unload it Got a heart that leak, but the smoke corrode it So the signal distorted every time I showed it [Hook] Smoke signals in the night, I been talkin’ in code Every puff got a message, but it never get told Half truth in the air, let it hover, let it float If it reach you, it’s yours—if it don’t, let it go Smoke signals in the night, I been speakin’ in grey Every cloud got a secret, let it carry away If you read between lines, you can see what I say But the truth gettin’ lost in the resin and haze [Verse 2] She said, “Why you distant?”—I just pass her the flame Let the lighter spark answers I can’t put in a name Every flick got a memory attached to the pain So I’m burnin’ through moments I ain’t tryin’ to explain Eyes low, but my vision HD in the blur See the lies in the love, hear the truth in the slur Every word feel rehearsed when it’s spoken too clear So I mumble my fears, let ‘em disappear I been talkin’ in riddles, middle finger to clarity Truth got weight, I been liftin’ it carefully Every metaphor medicinal, spiritually therapy But the real too raw for ‘em to ever prepare for me Got demons that dance in the flick of the ash Every spark like a flashback clipped from the past Time burn quick when you livin’ this fast So I roll up the present, try to make it last [Bridge] Watch it rise… watch it fade… Every word I never say… Float away… drift in space… Hope it land in your place… If you catch it, don’t speak Just inhale what I mean ‘Cause the loudest truths Ain’t ever heard when they seen… [Hook] Smoke signals in the night, I been talkin’ in code Every puff got a message, but it never get told Half truth in the air, let it hover, let it float If it reach you, it’s yours—if it don’t, let it go Smoke signals in the night, I been speakin’ in grey Every cloud got a secret, let it carry away If you read between lines, you can see what I say But the truth gettin’ lost in the resin and haze [Outro] Yeah… If it fade, it was meant to… If it stay, then it sent you… I don’t chase what I release… I just let it speak… in smoke…
