Midnight Mischief
Jordan Rakei Lyrics

It was dawn and I
As the sun came up, I found myself in a certain state of mind

Waited all [?]
I had been longing for something, waiting for it to happen

So to typify
To express what I was feeling, in a way that would make sense to others

Said she called me mister
She referred to me as a polite and respectful way of addressing someone

Under misty skies
The atmosphere was hazy and uncertain, adding to the mood

Here to get there quicker
I was in a hurry to reach my destination, to achieve something

Rebel through the night
I was restless and full of energy, not content to sit still

'Cuz I truly missed her
The reason for my behavior was my genuine longing for someone

Universal charm
She possessed a quality that was universally appealing, charming to all

'Cuz she thinks it's humour
Her reaction to my actions was that she found them amusing, funny

And I mean no harm
My intentions were not to harm her or anyone else, just to have some fun

Lock down into this
I was focused on this moment, this experience, with no distraction

Fall back she says
She hesitated, pulled back, showing reluctance to fully engage

Let's just keep this mutual
She suggested we keep things balanced, not let one person have all the control

It's these lines i tread
It was a delicate situation, like walking on a tightrope, where I had to be careful

Too much life force info [?]
The situation was intense, filled with energy and emotion

Midnight mischief strolling through my mind
I couldn't sleep, my mind was racing with ideas and desires

Want you there but I left you behind
Although I wanted her with me, I had to let her go, focus on myself

It's my midnight mischief time
I was in a playful, mischievous mood, ready for some fun

As the night awakes
The night was beginning, still full of promise and possibility

I can see her sleeping
Asleep in bed, she was at peace, unaware of my plans and desires

Step down mistake [?]
I made a mistake, stumbled in my actions or thoughts

Does she know my secret?
I wondered if she was aware of what I truly felt for her

I'm in love with her
It was no secret to me, I knew I was deeply in love with her

Let the love manifest
I wanted my love for her to become evident, to blossom and grow

Watch me take my serve
I was ready to take action, to make a bold move and show my intentions

Does she know I'm master
I felt confident and in control, like a master of my own destiny

Watch me take control
I was determined to take the lead, to steer things in the direction I wanted

She doesn't know what hit her
She was caught off guard, surprised by my actions or feelings

Glimpses of her soul
I caught glimpses of her true self, her innermost thoughts and feelings

Has a seamless dinner [?]
Her personality was smooth and effortless, like a well-planned and executed dinner party

Numbers on the plate
There were details and specifics to her personality, like numbers on a plate

It's my turn now
It was my time to take action, to step forward and make my move

One minute to the hour
Time was running out, it was almost too late to act

Come back home to the place I like when it's over
I hoped she would come back to me, to the place where we were happy, when the situation was resolved

I'll be waiting all day
I was willing to wait for her, to be patient and persistent

Never seem to hold myself and go to
I was impulsive, unable to control my desires, often acting without thinking

It's a dangerous place (I'll wait for days)
Taking risks and making bold moves was thrilling, but also risky and potentially harmful

Used to care but I can see you're hoping (I'll wait for days)
I used to be concerned about our relationship, but now I could see that she was looking for something else

For a better place
She was searching for happiness and fulfillment, hoping to find it elsewhere

Midnight slowly (I'll wait for days)
As the night slowly passed, I was willing to wait for her, to be patient and persistent

Creeping through the curtain
Like a mysterious and unknown force, something was creeping closer, inching its way toward us

Midnight flow press rewind not much melody shows left tonight [?]
The night was winding down, and there wasn't much time left to make something happen

I'll wait all day for you, I'll wait for you
No matter how long it takes, I was willing to wait for her, for us to be together

See I can't blame myself I got the right of way
I didn't feel guilty or responsible for my actions, since I was confident in my choices and intentions

And I can't blame myself I have the right of way
Similarly, I didn't feel like I was doing something wrong, since I believed I was doing the right thing

Midnight coffee and I'll let my love for you to take control
As I sipped coffee at midnight, I allowed my love for her to influence my actions and decisions
