Northern lights

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been on a mission lately
This is fun to me, this a hunt to me, yeah
I've been on a mission lately
This is fun to me, this a hunt to me, yeah

It's a hunt to me, when the time is right
When the moon is full, when my mind is right
On the run, in the land of the snow and the trees
She go cuckoo for blow and go loco for me
And it's beautiful when the siren lights
Give a stupid glow, but they're drivin' by
Gotta run for the bad, want it bad, on her knees
What's a gun to a man that can stand on his feet?
On the hunt, on the hunt, I could tell you what you want
Tryna stack some fuckin' funds, fuck a lot and have some fun

On my fam, future son, I won't rest 'til I have won
Leave your questions at the door, and your dress like half undone

I've been on a mission lately
This is fun to me, this a hunt to me, yeah
I've been on a mission lately
This is fun to me, this a hunt to me, yeah

I could sit today, I could make a way
For a getaway, on this paper chase
Takin' hit after hit, but I'll get what I need
It could make me a lick, or could make you believe
I'm an animal, not an amateur
Hit that ass and go, different stamina

Let her hop on the plane, hit a stage for a feel
Got some cash in the past and some weight, but I'm me
That's a blessin', that suggestion, I was born and it was destined
Doin' more than I could tell you, even more than you can mention

That's the plan, that's a hand that could feed your ass some bam
If you would've kept it real, movin' on, I'm gettin' Ms

I've been on a mission lately
This is fun to me, this a hunt to me, yeah
I've been on a mission lately
This is fun to me, this a hunt to me, yeah

And could say go
And watch me go
Now watch me go
I gain, I do
I gain, I do
Now watch me go
Now watch me go
And watch me go




And hey, I do
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah today
