Moment
Chris Miles Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

About a year ago I met you
I was like oh shit
We sat and talked and sparked
An L right by the ocean
I feel like time has changed us
both but girl you know this
So we can act like we don't
know how this shit goes when
we're in this moment right now
(aye)
When we're in this moment right now
Can you make the time go slower right now
(aye)
When we're in this moment
So we can act like we don't
know how this shit goes when
we're in this moment right now
You used to worry about your ego
Time flies
It's gone before we know
Zero thoughts
Girl we could really do this shit
How many times you confront it
You go through with this
Like oooh
Right now, right now
Gotta be up in it
Now we fullest
Fly back to town
Is you down?
Is you widdit?
If you not, I ain't trippin'
I'll be back in like a minute
Baby, do you remember when it was...
About a year ago I met you
I was like oh shit
We sat and talked and sparked
An L right by the ocean
I feel like time has changed us
both but girl you know this
So we can act like we don't
know how this shit goes when
we're in this moment right now
(aye)
When we're in this moment right now
Can you make the time go slower right now
(aye)
When we're in this moment
So we can act like we don't
know how this shit goes when
we're in this moment right now
When we're in this moment, I know it
We be in the sky like solved this shit
Going through the pictures that I posted
Like damn you blowing up
Hacking like she just noticed
Cause we finally in the same timezone
I'm starting to feel like my mind's calling
I call you, you hang up
I can't stand the dial tone
But it's cool
Besides me you're the coldest
Ah, really I ain't joking
Don't be on some hoe shit while you playing games
You say you feel alone
I be on the same thang
Look we got something different
Maybe we can maintain
Cause I'm just tryna kick it baby




Make it change lanes
Right now, right now...
