Wesley Joseph


Lookin' left to right, at night, I'm shootin' on the B-roll
Runnin' through the woods, the sweat is drippin' off my earlobes
And the foxes gettin' closer and the vultures, they can see you
If I make it to the ocean, then I hope I'm back at zero
Voices gettin' close to home, they pickin' at the keyhole (Where you goin'?)
Lonesome in the motion, I'm a convoluted hero
Or a supervillain, stir the cauldron, movin' how you feel
Hangin' out the window, leanin', screamin' how I feel (Woo)
Twenty-three, I'm never lookin' back though
Know my future son won't ever skip a meal (Meal)
At the family wedding, steppin' in all black though
Shoulders movin', I'm just tryna catch a feel (Woo)
And if you tryna leave, then we can hit the back door
Your eyes is leadin', you ain't even gotta say so
So if you tryna go discreetly, we can move slow
And feel a rush just like the riddim when it reload

Don't say what you think
Don't stray when you blink
Don't play with my strings, don't go
Don't say what you think
Don't say what you think
Don't, ah-ha-ha-ha
Don't say what you think
Don't stay if you sink so, come on, come on
Don't say what you think
Don't play with my strings, no, don't wanna move slow

Things slow down when you're gone
If it's a man's world, can't you see?
I'm rollin' in my precinct
I don't want the same things
Your love is dangerous
So if you actin' all shaky
You can put it on safety, yeah
But you strayed like a bullet from me
Caught you lookin' 'round for me
But can't breathe, can't breathe, but can't breathe
And you don't know your hold on me
You lookin' lonely
But can't see, you can't see, you can't see

I know that you been missin' different kinds of coalition
I was that boy down low, but, girl, I ain't malicious
I'm as real as my intentions
If you question my obsession
It begin with first impressions
Cinematic in your entrance
I was blinkin' twice, trippin'
'Cause I seen you in a different light
Show you a side of livin' you believed was a fictitious life
For most of us got stuck in a mirage of what to live it like
And no man big enough for your arms, but you still touchin' sides
Riskin' life, long as you can find me and you're feelin' right
Livin' twice, hell upon the earth, but you a paradise
Sheddin' light, till you fade away into the thick of night
Hypnotised, deeper than the rye, I'm left to memorise
Layers of your figure, that's on my mind
I stay up way up for ya, I'm tracin' lines
Sketchin' out your eyes till the Sun is through the blinds
Know what out of sight ain't always out of mind

Things slow down when you're gone
If it's a man's world, can't you see?
I'm rollin' in my precinct
I don't want the same things
Your love is dangerous
So if you actin' all shaky
You can put it on safety, yeah
But you strayed like a bullet from me
Caught you lookin' 'round for me
But can't breathe, can't breathe, but can't breathe
And you don't know your hold on me
You lookin' lonely
But can't see, you can't see, you can't see

And if you don't know, it's all about you
Talkin' like I'm old news when you come through, yeah
Now I'm sittin' on the Moon
Sittin' on my solo, thinkin' 'bout you, yeah-yeah
I was runnin' on the loose
Picture you a strange love, different kind of hue, yeah
Now I'm sittin' on the Moon
Feelin' time slow down when you're gone
