City On Fire Lyrics by Wale
(Feat. Odeal)
At what cost do I choose myself and put on my armor?
When your loyalty don’t serve you or what you need
At what cost do I lose myself to find you?
I’m where the moral compass lies
Cause I feel you, just living you
Don’t feel alive, do you?
But I guess it’s not brand new
To act brand new
I just think that’s not you
Somebody told me that we broke up
Now you on the fly getting paid in the zoo
But it’s cool, get your belt around
I do this ***, but gradually you do it for the lover
The game order, see others think that you ain’t fell off
And I love the way we jail, but I ain’t jello
Hell nah, I ain’t, look
And I wanna see you here, but you can care less
So spark that, we once said it, said it to your section
City’s on fire, burnin’ your house
City’s on fire, it’s gonna be a casualty
City’s on fire, burnin’ your house
City’s on fire, it’s gonna be a casualty
Yeah, Wahala, why it’s like that word is your second name?
Why your friends that know nothing, want no everything?
Why it’s homegirl birthday like a ***?
Wahala, I make moves in the places I don’t like to stay
How you got me out the game and now you trying to play?
Straight shots to the face, what you trying to chase?
That’d be Wahala, the doers saying you laughing at all their hardouts
The same ones laughing at me, buying you bottles
The quote-unquote brothers you had trying to be partners
That be wilder, but f*** that sh**
We both can be unbothered
You’re standing on the couch in heels
I’m watching mountain
So every time I hear what’s up, I got ***-***
City’s on fire, burnin’ your house
City’s on fire, it’s gonna be a casualty
City’s on fire, burnin’ your house
City’s on fire, it’s gonna be a casualty
