In The Air Tonight
2 Pac & Phil Collins Lyrics

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
I sense something intense is about to happen, and I acknowledge that there is a higher power I refer to as Lord.

And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I've been anticipating this event my whole life, and I attribute my patience to a higher power known as Lord.

Can you feel it coming in the air tonight? Oh Lord, oh Lord
I'm curious if others can sense the same premonition in the atmosphere, and I refer again to the higher power I address as Lord.

Well, if you told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand
If you were in dire need, despite knowing you, I wouldn't help you.

I've seen your face before, my friend, but I don't know if you know who I am
I'm familiar with your face, but I'm unsure if you recognize me.

Well, I was there and I saw what you did, I saw it with my own two eyes
I was present when you acted inappropriately, and I witnessed your actions firsthand.

So you can wipe off that grin, I know where you've been
I'm not fooled by your smile; I'm aware of your true intentions and past actions.

It's all been a pack of lies
Everything you've said has been a series of falsehoods.

Well, I remember, I remember, don't worry, how could I ever forget?
I have a clear memory of our last encounter, and even if I tried, I couldn't forget it.

It's the first time, the last time we ever met
Our previous interaction was both our first and last meeting.

But I know the reason why you keep your silence up, no, you don't fool me
I understand why you're choosing to be quiet, and I'm not deceived by your actions.

Well, the hurt doesn't show, but the pain still grows
You're not displaying any physical harm, but emotional turmoil persists and intensifies.

It's no stranger to you and me
We both recognize and have experienced emotional pain before.
