Alive [Closer Cover]
[Refrain: Amir Royale]
She don't who she is
She don't know what she is, no
She don't who she is
She don't know what she is now
She don't who she is
She don't know what she is to me

[Verse 1: Amir Royale]
Girl I wrote you a tape
Did you listen to it?—I don't know
Girl I know there's a whole bunch feelings
You have but don't show
Damn, there's messages here
That I never deleted—they're saved
My face in my book, I can't even look
Site just don't work that way
Girl I read them like they from a storybook made for our kids
I ain't saying they're you and I’s, I'm saying you and I split
Girl you was my muse
But now I've got some better news for you
I'm on the road, maybe we'll meet up along it
(I hope I see you in the morning)
You still belong here, you still belong
I used to long for you, I would go long for you
But that's something you have been known
What don't you know? What ain't I told you yet?
I have been down but I have walked good and I still smile
[Interlude: Amir Royale]
Cause damn I feel alive
Baby, damn I feel alive
It's like something has to die
To help you realize—damn, I feel alive

[Verse 2: Amir Royale]
Girl I know you been changing
Been up late arranging your space
So much you change your name
Address and even your clothes
So don't upload no videos of you singing favorite songs
Cause now you know that I'll be singing along
You need someone to help you
Explain all the things that you think
The things that you bring to my life are unprecedented
Classier than our last president
Is you my best friend or my nemesis
Is you on my mind or below me?
That's double sided, I know it
They say that they got you but I swear I miss you the most
Light skinned advantages, you be my management
I need female acknowledgement on all my sentences
Making sure all of my penmanship endlessly loveable
You got on so much of this cover girl, you've lost your color girl
No need to cover up, let me see more of you grow
I need more of you now, cause what I saw in you
Changed me more than words you'll ever know
And I call these things concerts still
Cause girl you'll never—you know
[Verse 3: Amir Royale]
Agh—I just wanna take you out sometime
But every time I ask you say you got no time
So that just makes me wonder when you got some time
And what you must be doing when you got that time
I just wanna take some time off
Just to maybe spit a line and get another rhyme off to you
Take some time off, tick the time off
Just to tell you everything that I've been tryna
Now I'm tryna and I can't even rhyme off what I rhymed on
Cause all eyes on me—must I remind you?
I can't seem to ever get my mind off you
Time don't choose, we do—don't you know that?
Why we always clicking like a Kodak?
Saving all our moments
Cause I know you'll forget 'em in a moment
And you know that I'm totally about my bros
And making sure my famo coated in the cold, it's cold
And I'm striking every single beat up
Like a piece coal to eat up all these rappers
Spotlight on me, get to, get to clap, clapping
Oh no, this your favorite song? How you think I know that?
Shit, you probably gonna change it
Just so I won't get to you any better
You're always on my mind
I wonder how you doing, matter fact I know you doing fine
So come out to a show girl, ain't you know I'm doing nine?
Hell, I'll be in your city on the ninth
So just know if things get tight and you ever need to cry
I'll sing you my lullabys and send you my love
Anytime you need it, and that's real
[Refrain: Amir Royale]
She don't who she is
She don't know what she is, no
She don't who she is
She don't know what she is, now
She don't who she is
She don't know what she is to me

[Outro: Amir Royale & Kehlani]
Rain is good for the soul
It's crazy how I feel the most warm when it’s cold
