[00:05.49][Intro]
[00:13.56]Windows fogged
[00:14.97]Headphones loud
[00:17.25]City crawling by
[00:18.75]Eyes on the ground
[00:23.46][Verse 1]
[00:23.58]Last bus 1 a m
[00:24.69]Korean spot just closed
[00:26.31]Grease stains on my hoodie
[00:27.60]From the wings I chose
[00:29.01]Got a text from my brother
[00:30.33]Say he might relapse
[00:31.77]He been clean four months
[00:33.09]Now he typing all caps
[00:34.47]Mom calling me"baby"
[00:35.76]But my rent past due
[00:37.20]Landlord on my voicemail
[00:38.55]Saying"What you gon' do"
[00:39.87]I just stare at my sneakers
[00:41.25]Same pair since school
[00:42.66]Bleached-out swoosh on the side
[00:43.95]Look tired just like you
[00:45.66][Chorus]
[00:45.75](I’m on the night bus back home)
[00:48.33]Streetlights blinking like a warning
[00:51.00]Tryna outrun my ghosts till morning
[00:54.06](But they ride along they ride along)
[00:56.64]I’m on the night bus back home
[00:59.31]Every stop replay my choices
[01:02.04]Hear my past in stranger voices
[01:04.89](But I ride alone I ride alone)
[01:06.93][Verse 2]
[01:07.05]Couple kids in the back row
[01:08.73]Pass a vape talk loud
[01:10.11]Say they"never gon’settle"
[01:12.30]Say they love this town
[01:13.80]I remember same grammar
[01:15.15]Same cheap cologne
[01:16.47]Drawing plans in the margins
[01:17.91]Of a free take-home
[01:18.81]Almost signed with a label
[01:20.49]Homie hyped that dream
[01:21.93]Paper looked like freedom
[01:23.22]Fine print looked mean
[01:24.54]So I stayed in my bedroom
[01:25.89]Turned my fear to tracks
[01:27.27]Put my pain in a notebook
[01:28.56]Put my heart on wax
[01:29.94]Dad text once on my birthday
[01:31.38]"Hope you're doing alright"
[01:32.28]I just stared at that message
[01:33.96]Till it blurred in the light
[01:35.31]He a ghost with a phone bill
[01:36.87]Still haunt my day
[01:38.01]Every silence between chimes
[01:39.27]Got his face in the way
[01:39.78][Chorus]
[01:39.87](I’m on the night bus back home)
[01:42.09]Streetlights blinking like a warning
[01:44.94]Tryna outrun my ghosts till morning
[01:47.85](But they ride along they ride along)
[01:50.16]I’m on the night bus back home
[01:53.04]Every stop replay my choices
[01:55.68]Hear my past in stranger voices
[01:58.50](But I ride alone I ride alone)
[02:00.93][Bridge]
[02:01.26]If I make it out this winter
[02:03.93]I’ma buy Ma heat
[02:06.48]Fix the crack in her window
[02:09.15]Get some rest some sleep
[02:11.79]If my brother find his center
[02:14.40]Put the pill down slow
[02:17.04]We can laugh ’bout the nights
[02:19.71]We was inches from gone
[02:22.38]If this bus ride feel shorter
[02:24.24]Than the year I had
[02:27.63]Maybe next time these lights
[02:29.58]Won’t look so bad
[02:32.70][Chorus]
[02:32.79](I’m on the night bus back home)
[02:35.10]Streetlights blinking like a warning
[02:37.89]Tryna outrun my ghosts till morning
[02:40.74](But they ride along they ride along)
[02:43.23]I’m on the night bus back home
[02:45.84]Every stop replay my choices
[02:48.45]Hear my past in stranger voices
[02:51.24](But I ride alone I ride alone)
[03:25.00]
