Sunset
@Kid_Ink Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now, just picture me high up with my top down
On Highland and Sunset, doin' 85 on the top deck
See, step by step we're walking on stars
If you're looking for some action, you ain't gotta go that far now

Just picture me Hollywood living
Riding through the sun, riding through the sunset
Now, stop tripping, just give me a minute
And wait until the sun, wait until the sun goes down
Man, you know how it go down
Man, you know how it go down
Highland entertainer, waiting 'til the sun goes down
You know how it go down
You know how it go down
Might get a little crazy, just wait until the sun goes down

Underground, any city I come in town
It's touchdown, Hail Mary, gettin' to the dough like Pillsbury
All night, don't feel worried
High up is where we will be
Nah, you ain't gotta feel guilty
Won't judge you, go on, be free
So pour what you want
Go head, roll what you want
Fuck what they say, somebody
Walkin' 'round here like they're somebody
Don't know what kind of day I had
With all this weight, couldn't hold my bag
Don't hold me back from my habits
Live a fast life for the magic
I'm just lookin' 'round for the baddest
Hollywood face with an ass from Dallas
Big-ass crib, nigga livin' in a palace
We rollin' out
And my hands on the wheel so tight, got a callus
Get so fabulous
With everybody here, only thing that matters

Now, Just picture me Hollywood living
Riding through the sun, riding through the sunset
Now, stop tripping, just give me a minute
And wait until the sun, wait until the sun goes down
Man, you know how it go down
Man, you know how it go down
Highland entertainer, waiting 'til the sun goes down
You know how it go down
You know how it go down
Might get a little crazy, just wait until the sun goes down

And it's go time
I swear this feeling's like we're inches from the goal line
Now or never, better make your mind
Might hit her with a line like "what's your sign?"
Hit her with a glass of sparkling wine
Hit her on the ass, she might not mind
Actin' like a 10, look more like a 9, but
Don't be stuck up
Really, how could you not see us
Doing it big, it's obvious
You ain't gotta say much, 'cause
I know you're sick and tired, sick and tired of all that bullshit
Then don't be afraid, take a shot and bite the bullet
That's one in the hole
Can't get enough, need one or two more
Tell 'em catch up, they're running to slow
Out the gutter, I learned to bowl
And finally it's movie time to show them I play the role
Of a champion, you see the goal
Light shines bright, can't see the road

Now, just picture me Hollywood living
Riding through the sun, riding through the sunset
Now, stop tripping, just give me a minute
And wait until the sun, wait until the sun goes down
just picture me Hollywood living
Riding through the sun, riding through the sunset
Now, stop tripping, just give me a minute
And wait until the sun, wait until the sun goes down
You know how it go down
You know how it go down
Highland entertainer, waiting 'til the sun goes down
You know how it go down




You know how it go down
Might get a little crazy, just wait until the sun goes down

I live a hectic lifestyle because of the excitement it brings


I'm just lookin' 'round for the baddest
I'm searching for the hottest and most attractive person


Hollywood face with an ass from Dallas
She might have a beautiful face from Hollywood, but her body comes straight from Dallas


Big-ass crib, nigga livin' in a palace
I live in a huge mansion, I'm living the life of a king


We rollin' out
We're getting out of here and on the move


And my hands on the wheel so tight, got a callus
I've been driving so much, my hands are sore and calloused from gripping the steering wheel tightly

We're living such a fabulous life

It's time to get started, to make something happen

I feel like we're so close to achieving our goals, like we're right on the goal line in football


Now or never, better make your mind
We need to make a decision and take action now or it might be too late


Might hit her with a line like "what's your sign?"
I might use a cheesy pick up line on a girl, like asking what her astrological sign is


Hit her with a glass of sparkling wine
I might impress her by buying her an expensive glass of sparkling wine


Hit her on the ass, she might not mind
I might make a playful gesture, like patting her on the butt, and she might like it


Actin' like a 10, look more like a 9, but
She's trying to act like she's a perfect 10, but realistically she's more of a 9


Don't be stuck up
Don't act like you're better than others


Really, how could you not see us
We're so great and amazing, how could anyone not notice us?


Doing it big, it's obvious
We're living extravagantly and it's clear for everyone to see


You ain't gotta say much, 'cause
You don't need to say anything, our actions speak louder than words


I know you're sick and tired, sick and tired of all that bullshit
I know you're fed up with all the nonsense and lies in your life right now


Then don't be afraid, take a shot and bite the bullet
Don't be scared, take a chance and go for it


That's one in the hole
That's one success under our belt


Can't get enough, need one or two more
We want more success, we're not satisfied with just one


Tell 'em catch up, they're running to slow
Other people need to keep up with us, they're not moving fast enough


Out the gutter, I learned to bowl
I come from a rough background, but I've learned how to excel and succeed


And finally it's movie time to show them I play the role
It's finally time to demonstrate my greatness and show that I can act the part


Of a champion, you see the goal
I'm striving to be a champion, and everyone can see my goal


Light shines bright, can't see the road
The fame and success is so blinding, sometimes it's hard to see the pathway to achieving it


just picture me Hollywood living
Imagine me living the Hollywood lifestyle


Now, stop tripping, just give me a minute
Calm down and be patient, let me have some time


And wait until the sun, wait until the sun goes down
Wait until it's dark, that's when the real fun begins


You know how it go down
You already know the way things happen here


Highland entertainer, waiting 'til the sun goes down
I'm a performer from Highland, and I'm waiting for the night to start my show
