[Intro] We light it up From Seoul to the sky Hands up high We don’t get tired (hey!) [Verse 1] Gold chain swing on the black tee Late flight, jet lag in the backseat Whole crew packed deep in a taxi Still look fresh on the cracked street I was that kid with the cracked screen Dreams in the notes of a cracked beat Now they chant my name like a stampede Every small win feel like a grand scene [Pre-Chorus] I came from the side of the map They said “stay quiet, stay back” Now we run the lane they ain’t have Boys from the East, make it slap Tell me who said we can’t rise? We been training all our lives Heart race when the bass collide See the crowd wave like a tide (woah) [Chorus] We the midnight circuit kings When the lights go out, we sing Every heartbeat, every swing Turn the floor into a ring (ay) We don’t fall back, we don’t break We just dance on every quake Feel the ground under us shake Midnight kings, we stay awake [Verse 2] Snapback low in the back row Teacher said move like the shadows Now I headline with the pack, bro Bright glare, center of the macro Mama praying in the kitchen Chop veggies, talk ‘bout vision “Keep faith, boy, keep rhythm” Now my face on the big screen image [Pre-Chorus] I came from the side of the map They said “stay quiet, stay back” Now we run the lane they ain’t have Boys from the East, make it slap Tell me who said we can’t rise? We been training all our lives Heart race when the bass collide See the crowd wave like a tide (woah) [Chorus] We the midnight circuit kings When the lights go out, we sing Every heartbeat, every swing Turn the floor into a ring (ay) We don’t fall back, we don’t break We just dance on every quake Feel the ground under us shake Midnight kings, we stay awake [Bridge] [Beat drops, synths filter down to a pulsing bass; group vocal chant] Hands up, hands up All my people stand up From the East side lands up Let the whole world fan us (hey!) Hands up, hands up Run it ‘til the sun’s up If you ever felt shut up Tonight you speak loud as us [Chorus] We the midnight circuit kings When the lights go out, we sing Every heartbeat, every swing Turn the floor into a ring (ay) We don’t fall back, we don’t break We just dance on every quake Feel the ground under us shake Midnight kings, we stay awake
