After party
Keith Stanfield Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Moving through the stream of this life,
Like I'm skating,
Holy creation
I've never been a basic, know what it is and where it's at,
You could chase it,
I know I made it
Anything in life is atainable, I wouldn't break it for a little bit of patience
I was made to glow, so tonight we getting white-boy wasted
(Whoa yeh)
We at the after party
We all just want to get loud and rowdy
(Spent cash)
