[Verse 1]
Phone on
Face down
Same couch, same town
Scrollin' through the ghosts of my timeline
Boys talk
Big plans
Same bar, same stance
I been tryna step outside the punchlines
Mom callin' just to ask if I ate
Landlord tappin' on the side of the gate
Heart heavy like a chain on a safe
Dreams loud, but the rent can't wait
[Chorus]
I got midnight on my mind (yeah)
Same sky, but it feel redesigned
Whole life in a shoebox rhyme
Tryna turn all this pressure into diamonds
Midnight on my mind (on my mind)
Eyes red, but the vision aligned
If the world don't give me a sign
I'ma write my own name in the silence (hey)
[Verse 2]
Cheap plate
Cold rice
Last bite, last slice
Count coins on the counter like confetti
Old friends
Turn strange
Group chat, all change
They left, I'm the one who wasn't ready
Bus pass, hoodie up in the rain
Clock in, throw my hunger in chains
Clock out with a notebook of pain
Every page like a runway flame
[Chorus]
I got midnight on my mind (yeah)
Same sky, but it feel redesigned
Whole life in a shoebox rhyme
Tryna turn all this pressure into diamonds
Midnight on my mind (on my mind)
Eyes red, but the vision aligned
If the world don't give me a sign
I'ma write my own name in the silence (ooh)
Phone on

Стиль музыки
rap, Moody boom-bap with vinyl grit and deep, round kick; close-mic male vocals sitting right on top of a swung groove. Sparse piano stabs and distant vocal chops in the verses, then the chorus widens with stacked harmonies and a subtle sub-bass lift. Snare stays dry and crisp, with occasional dropouts to spotlight the voice and ad-libs., hip-hop
