Goodnight
Lilo Key Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Boy been hot and that sure ain't new
You was thinking linear your mind construed
Until I came up put a vision make your dreams come true
They wonder how it all happened
Well so do I
Now I'm writing all their songs like a poltergeist
I was passive for a long time
Way off the map
They forgot about me but she won't tonight
The cold is like I'm froze in ice
Found game when I rolled the dice
Too overpriced for em yeah
The best thing that you did was leave
'Cuz I found love when I found me
Now motherfucker I'm
Free now
Bring the freaks out yeah
Long nights turn to weeks now yeah
It seems life's like a movie yeah
And I'm stealin' all your scenes now
A lot changed since we spoke last yeah
You'd be surprised I'm not the old me
It's kinda crazy how it happened so fast
Quick flash now everything else around are below me
It was from the jump
We were talking bout our future
Maybe we're too young
And this love ain't what Im used to
I could feel the end I just didn't want to lose you
I don't want to open my eyes
My eyes
Eyes closed when I wake
All I think about how I was laying with a snake
Oh I came up out with some gas and a match so
Turn the whole world to a ball full of flames
Got the whole place lit pause when I play
Boy it's my time now you have to wait
Who would've thought it six years back
Backpack full of tapes
When I rapped
They like oh he a mistake
Bet they all want to double back now
Far too late
Watch from a distance
I'm done being played
I've been moving real hush hush
Waiting till it's just us
Now I'll turn around and laugh at your face
Feel real good now
Oh I feel real good now
Think I finally got it planned out
You don't need to understand
I don't think that you will
Just sit back until it all pans out
Hands down
Where the crown at
I was looking for a minute think I found that
Hope that your watching me
Hope that you hate this
Better yet go and put this on your playlist
And play this every night that you gettin wasted
Bitch face it
I'm doing better alone
Boy it still hurts when I'm checking my phone
Knowing that you out there fucking some clone
But I'm off
Fuck you goodbye bitch I'm gone
It was from the jump
We were talking bout our future
Maybe we're too young
And this love ain't what I'm used to
I could feel the end I just didn't want to lose you
I don't want to open my eyes
My eyes
In Lilo Key's song "Goodnight," the artist sings about a past relationship where he was with someone who wasn't really his type, but he stayed with them anyway. He talks about how he was passive and off the map for a long time until he found his own way and began pursuing his dreams. Lilo Key also mentions that he's doing better alone, even though it still hurts when he checks his phone and knows that his ex is maybe out there with someone else. Nevertheless, he's moved on and found happiness without his former partner.
Throughout the song, Lilo Key uses metaphors to describe his emotions, comparing himself to a poltergeist and saying that he's found love when he found himself. He also speaks about how life seems like a movie and he's taking over all the scenes. In the chorus, he sings about not wanting to open his eyes because he doesn't want to face the reality that the relationship is over.
The song is an emotional and honest reflection on moving on from a past relationship and finding oneself. It speaks to the experience of many people who have gone through the pain of ending a relationship and learning to love themselves again.
Line by Line Meaning
Look I don't have a type but it sure ain't you
I'm not picky about guys but you're not the one for me
Boy been hot and that sure ain't new
I've been successful for a while, this isn't new
You was thinking linear your mind construed
You were thinking small, limited by your own mindset
Until I came up put a vision make your dreams come true
I inspired you to dream big and helped you make it a reality
They wonder how it all happened
People are curious about my success story
Well so do I
Even I can't believe how far I've come
Now I'm writing all their songs like a poltergeist
I'm ghostwriting successful songs for other artists
I was passive for a long time
I didn't take control of my life for a while
Too long in fact
I waited too long to start making things happen
Way off the map
I wasn't following any standard path to success
They forgot about me but she won't tonight
Others may have overlooked me, but she won't
The cold is like I'm froze in ice
Feeling ignored and unappreciated was like being frozen over
Found game when I rolled the dice
I took a chance and succeeded
Too overpriced for em yeah
My success was too much for some people to handle
The best thing that you did was leave
Breaking up with you was the best thing you ever did for me
'Cuz I found love when I found me
I learned to love myself after the breakup
Now motherfucker I'm
Now I'm successful and free
Free now
I don't feel trapped anymore
Bring the freaks out yeah
I'm ready to party and have a good time
Long nights turn to weeks now yeah
Time is passing quickly as I enjoy my success
It seems life's like a movie yeah
My life feels like a movie because of all the success I'm having
And I'm stealin' all your scenes now
I'm taking the spotlight and leaving my ex behind
A lot changed since we spoke last yeah
My life has changed significantly since we last talked
You'd be surprised I'm not the old me
I'm not the same person I was before
It's kinda crazy how it happened so fast
My success came quickly and surprisingly
Quick flash now everything else around are below me
My success has elevated me and everything else seems insignificant
I could feel the end I just didn't want to lose you
I knew the relationship wasn't working, but I didn't want to let go
Eyes closed when I wake
I don't want to face reality
All I think about how I was laying with a snake
I regret being in a toxic relationship
Oh I came up out with some gas and a match so
I came out of the relationship with motivation and tools for success
Turn the whole world to a ball full of flames
I'm making a huge impact on the world
Got the whole place lit pause when I play
Everyone stops to watch me succeed
Boy it's my time now you have to wait
It's my turn to shine and others have to wait their turn
Who would've thought it six years back
I never imagined I would be so successful six years ago
Backpack full of tapes
I had little resources and just my music
When I rapped
I started my journey in the music industry
They like oh he a mistake
People didn't believe in me at first
Bet they all want to double back now
People who didn't believe in me are now trying to come back into my life
Far too late
It's too late for them now
Watch from a distance
I'm keeping some people at arm's length
I'm done being played
I won't let people take advantage of me anymore
I've been moving real hush hush
I've been keeping my success lowkey
Waiting till it's just us
I'm waiting until I'm successful before reconnecting with some people
Now I'll turn around and laugh at your face
I'll succeed without the help of those who didn't believe in me
Feel real good now
I'm feeling great about my success
Think I finally got it planned out
I have a clear vision for my future now
You don't need to understand
Others don't need to understand my path to success
I don't think that you will
I doubt they'll ever understand
Just sit back until it all pans out
Just wait and see my success story unfold
Hands down
I'm the best
Where the crown at
I deserve to be the king/queen of the music industry
I was looking for a minute think I found that
I've been searching for success and I finally have it
Hope that your watching me
I hope my ex can see my success
Hope that you hate this
I hope my ex hates to see how successful I am without them
Better yet go and put this on your playlist
Listen to this song and see how far I've come
And play this every night that you gettin wasted
Listen to this song when you're drunk and regretful
Bitch face it
Accept the fact that I'm successful without you
I'm doing better alone
I'm happier and more successful without you
Boy it still hurts when I'm checking my phone
I still feel the pain of the breakup sometimes
Knowing that you out there fucking some clone
Knowing that my ex has moved on with someone who is similar to me
But I'm off
I'm over the relationship and moving on
Fuck you goodbye bitch I'm gone
I'm over the toxic relationship and saying goodbye
It was from the jump
This relationship wasn't built to last
We were talking bout our future
We had ideas about what our future would look like
Maybe we're too young
Maybe we weren't ready for a serious relationship
And this love ain't what Im used to
This relationship wasn't what I expected or wanted
I could feel the end I just didn't want to lose you
I knew the relationship was coming to an end but didn't want to let go
I don't want to open my eyes
I don't want to face the reality of the breakup
My eyes
I'm struggling to accept the end of the relationship
