Nighttime by Tiny Yalla Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2019

[Intro]
You ain't gonna believe this
But you used to fit right here
I'd hold you up and say to your mother
This kid is going to be the best kid in the world
This kid is going to be somebody better than anybody I ever knew
And you grew up good and wonderful
[?]

[Verse 1 ]
I’m sorry mom and dad, I didn’t mean to fuck up this bad
I’m trapped inside my mind so I let it out on this track
Its so easy to slip yourself pills
Lost track of what is real Looks like I tipped the scale
It has been years and I know that
You have forgiven, but will never forget
That I was always so mad, All the things that I said
All the traumas you had, Like when I tried to stab dad
Wish I could make it right, and you didn’t spend those years
Fearing for your life. My little brother never had to sleep with a knife
And all the shit I did didn’t haunt your nights
Like they do mine, I still hear your cries piercing through the nighttime
I tried to beat my demons but I lost the fight
And every fucking day you had to pay the price don’t tell me that its alright
[Chorus]
I’m drowning in guilt
Sunk too deep, close your eyes
I’ll never feel what you feel
Fall asleep, drowning in the tides

[Verse 2]
I don’t even know what I’m doing anymore
I stay up late and then wake up wasted
Don’t know what I’m doing it for
The pain that I caused can not be erased yeah
So I slipped myself something to hide with
Drifting so far that my demons can’t find me
Is it my fault you’re scared to share what you feel?
That you promptly push away when its too real
And they get close
I guess we’re the only ones that know
Why you froze when you need it most
I guess we’re the only ones that will know

We’re the brotherhood, Get high together
In solitude, but we still cry together
Its all good, our lives don’t matter
Its all good, we’ll hide from the weather
Cause the rain, keeps pouring on our face
Go insane, trying to take back those days
Its in vain, my life’s such a waste
I strayed, and we all lost our ways
[Bridge]
I’m drowning in guilt

[Verse 3]
I’m sorry mom and dad, I really hope you know that
For everything and everyone in my life I have broken
You try to hide it, don’t think I didn’t notice
That its my fault that I hurt the people closest

The day is gone and the world has gone to sleep
Try to stay strong, but I’m afraid I sank too deep
And all the pain inside slowly starts to swallow me
The panic's taking over and leaves nothing but a hollow me

[Outro]
I’m empty, sit back and stare
That shit’s tempting, my mind everywhere
I’m empty, sit back and stare
That shit’s tempting, my mind everywhere
I’m empty, sit back and stare
That shit’s tempting, my mind everywhere
I’m empty, sit back and stare
That shit’s tempting, my mind everywhere
