Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Roamin' through the night
Underneath the city lights
Hold my hand, close your eyes
Take a breath, we alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah. We alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Life been hard, you ain't feelin' right
Puttin' up a fight, losin' sight with them tears in your eyes, shit
I know how it feels, like there's no options
Every step you take you been cautious
Cause you ain't wanna fuck it up
Before you fall n hurt yourself
But you ain't wanna toughen up
Before you're lost n hurt someone

I know it feels
That's just how it be, so
Kick it back, life's been hard, wouldn't you agree?

'Cause we're tired of the grief
Need relief, positivity
Tired of the beef
All the drama, negativity
Tryna spread some love, make some friends, not some enemies
That's the remedy, hah

Roamin' through the night
Underneath the city lights
Hold my hand, close your eyes
Take a breath, we alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah. We alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Crusin' through the streets, up until the sun rise
Look into my eyes, you my ride or die
We can make it through this til' we feel alright inside
I'll take you downtown, yeah, take the next right

We can grab a bite
Maybe under candlelights
And if you ain't feelin' it
We can get a slice
With some cola on the ice
Cause anything is nice when I'm with you
And that's the truth

And we still in our youth, and we might die young
So I'd rather spend this night like we chasin' the sun, so

Hold my hand, close your eyes
Take a breath, we alright
Yeah, we alright

Roamin' through the night
Underneath the city lights
Hold my hand, close your eyes
Take a breath, we alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah. We alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Roamin' through the night
Underneath the city lights
Hold my hand, close your eyes
Take a breath, we alright




Yeah, yeah, yeah. We alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
