[Intro]
Headlights low
Seat laid back
Ash on my shirt
Bag in my lap (yeah)
[Verse 1]
Cruisin' past the corner store
Same cracked sign
Same front door
Pagers buzzin' in my brain
Old ghosts callin' out my name
Tint so dark
Can’t see my eyes
Still see every little lie
Rearview full of could’ve-beens
Street keep pullin’ me again
[Chorus]
I’m on that late night fonk run
Windows down
Heart beat drum
Every turn feel like I’m stuck
Chasin’ that same old rush
Same old luck
On that late night fonk run (fonk run)
Can’t tell if I lead or I run from
If I make it home with the sun
I swear I’m done
I swear I’m done
[Verse 2]
Phone light glow on her name
Typed “I’m close” then backspaced
She say I’m lost in what I chase
I say I’m fine
Change the pace
Blue and red paint the dash
Slow roll
Hide the stash
Breath held
Knuckles tight
They pass by
I pass the light (woo)
[Chorus]
I’m on that late night fonk run
Windows down
Heart beat drum
Every turn feel like I’m stuck
Chasin’ that same old rush
Same old luck
On that late night fonk run (fonk run)
Can’t tell if I lead or I run from
If I make it home with the sun
I swear I’m done
I swear I’m done
[Bridge]
Street hum sound like my fate
Say “one more move
You’ll break”
I talk tough
Play brave
Still one bad call from the grave
[Chorus]
I’m on that late night fonk run
Windows down
Heart beat drum
Every turn feel like I’m stuck
Chasin’ that same old rush
Same old luck
On that late night fonk run (fonk run)
Can’t tell if I lead or I run from
If I make it home with the sun
I swear I’m done
I swear I’m done (yeah)
Headlights low
Seat laid back
Ash on my shirt
Bag in my lap (yeah)

I’m on that late night fonk run

Every turn feel like I’m stuck
Chasin’ that same old rush
Same old luck
On that late night fonk run (fonk run)
Can’t tell if I lead or I run from

Musikstyle
Greasy G-funk groove with swung drums and rubbery bass; talkbox-style lead hook and male vocals riding a laid-back but menacing pocket. Verses tight and clipped, then chorus widens with stacked chants and synth stabs. Slight tape grit, car-speaker mix that hits hard in the low end.
