Nic Soze Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Kick game, lemme tap that
No shame, cuz you been bad
Real one, but you knew that
Sit back, where the drinks at
Kick game, lemme tap that
No shame, cuz you been bad
Real one, but you knew that
Look good on your own
Imma give you what you want and more
Something bout you and the way you move
I bet that's how they all try to hit you up
Bet you heard enough, so now I slide through
Tryna play it real smooth, with the moves
I ain't tryna get played like a fool, no
Seen you shoot em down like dominoes
Man, these dudes don't know when it's time to go
Lemme show you a starboy when the lights dim low
Get close, baby, get close
Get close, baby, get close
Sit back, where the drinks at
Kick game, lemme tap that
No shame, cuz you been bad
Real one, but you knew that
Sit back, where the drinks at
Kick game, lemme tap that
No shame, cuz you been bad
Real one, but you knew that
Look good on your own
Imma give you what you want and more
Got me speaking French, cuz I'm thinkin bout we
Baby, leave your friends, you ain't gotta hurry
And if you want, we can always keep this shit lowkey
Keep it 6 feet deep, we can keep it buried
Not the type to marry, but the type to make your knees weak
I can't really promise imma be here when you need me
No, I'm not a player but I crush a lot
Might get on your nerves, but you know that I just hit the spot
Get close, baby, get close
Get close, baby, get close
Sit back, where the drinks at
Kick game, lemme tap that
No shame, cuz you been bad
Real one, but you knew that
Sit back, where the drinks at
Kick game, lemme tap that
No shame, cuz you been bad
Real one, but you knew that
The lyrics of Nic Soze's song "Lights Out" seem to be a conversational piece, directed towards a particular person. The song begins by asking the listener to "sit back" and join in on the drinks. It then moves quickly to a flirty tone with the lyrics "Kick game, lemme tap that, No shame, cuz you been bad" - an immediate indication of the singer's interest. Nic Soze declares that the listener "look[s] good on [their] own," but he still plans to give them "what [they] want and more." Despite his confident vibe, he understands that the listener has probably dealt with a lot of guys trying to hit on them in the same sly manner as he is, but he's trying to show them that he's different.
The chorus of the song is simple, asking the listener to "get close." The song then goes on to detail the singer's persistence and how he plans on giving the listener a great time. He mentions that their interaction should be kept low-key and buried, not meant for others to know about. The singer admits that he's not interested in settling down with the listener, but he can promise to make their "knees weak." As the song concludes, Nic Soze is sure that he has hit the "spot" when it comes to this fictional crush.
