After party

(Based on an original composition) [Verse 1] I reminisce being a youngin', had few dollars and a dream Caught sight of vipers in the grass, kept my mind supreme Neighbourhood parties, full of drugs and temptation Elders said, "Stay sharp, don’t fall to that persuasion" Loved the after parties, then came the cyphers Rap became my battlefield, tight rhymes my armor With each new opponent, then grew my thunder With a smoothness, my tongue tore them asunder With words so blinding, they'd make Stevie wander [Chorus – Female Vocal] After party, that’s when it started Moments witnessed, no phone in sight We were living free, open-hearted Dancing in the glow of the night Just memories time could never rewrite [Verse 2] The pen and paper was my escape route Painting pictures vivid, they kept me lucid Flooding images to make you hallucinate Return with stories just to elucidate Every line like a vision I translate From the mind to the mic, let it resonate Crafting worlds out of pain and the pressure Turn a fleeting thought to something you can measure A masterpiece built off trial and error Building blocks that formed a new era When a new afterparty approached I was ready, pen in hand, no fear, no hesitation [Chorus – Female Vocal] After party, that’s when it started Moments witnessed, no phone in sight We were living free, open-hearted Dancing in the glow of the night Just memories time could never rewrite [Verse 3] Came a new verse that could shift the universe How I reminisce, these moments filled my thirst I felt planets aligning and the stars shinin' Every word I was spittin', felt like perfect timin' Every bar like a spark, feel the energy build From the nights I was lost to the vision fulfilled Now I move with a purpose, every line gotta land Turn a dream to reality with a mic in my hand [Chorus – Female Vocal] After party, that’s when it started Moments witnessed, no phone in sight We were living free, open-hearted Dancing in the glow of the night Just memories time could never rewrite
