Intro (Scenic Drive) lyrics - Khalid (feat. Alicia Keys)

Thank you for tuning in to scenic drive
We're here tonight to provide the vibes
So sit back, relax and enjoy the ride

Present lyrics - Khalid

I know that you're on to me, bae
Tell me that you want me, bae
Really need your company, bae
If it's alright, you can roll with me, bae

Whip around town riding auto-pilot
See it in your eyes, I can tell you like it
Pull up in a Lamb, this is not a hybrid, my love
Give you everything, you get all of my love

Is it okay if I take the night to be present, yeah?
I can give you everything tonight (I can give you everything)
Is it okay if I take the night to be present, yeah? (Present, yeah)
I can give you everything tonight (Tonight)

I just wanna be with you, bae
Say the word, I'm comin' through, bae
Tell me what I gotta do, bae
Pulled up to your avenue, bae

Whip around town riding auto-pilot
See it in your eyes, I can tell you like it
Pull up in a Lamb, this is not a hybrid, my love
Give you everything, you get all of my love

Is it okay if I take the night to be present, yeah?
I can give you everything tonight (I can give you everything)
Is it okay if I take the night to be present, yeah?
I can give you everything tonight (Tonight)

I could give you my love
Everything is yours
All I have
You gotta say the word
Could be yours
Nothing in this world will change a thing
Nothing in this world will change a thing

Is it okay if I take the night to be present, yeah? (Present, yeah)
I can give you everything tonight (Give you everything tonight)
Is it okay if I take the night to be present, yeah? (Present, yeah)
I can give you everything tonight (Tonight)

(Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight)

Backseat lyrics - Khalid

Weed smoke, windows up, sitting in the parking lot
You bring your friend along but we all know she talks a lot
Neighbors at the balcony, I'm praying they don't call the cops
You getting paranoid, I whip around the block
You want me to air it out
You tell me it's getting hot
We smoke about half a J, I cannot retrace my thoughts
All these run on sentences, tell me what the difference is
Which one do you prefer?
Sative or Indica?

Backseat
I'm the one you need to be around
'Cause I won't bring you down
No, I won't bring you down
No, I won't ever bring you down
You don't gotta ask me
Already know what I will provide
No, I won't steer you wrong
No, I won't steer you wrong
No, I won't give you the run around

Say yes or no
Only if you wanna
'Bout that time
Time for me to roll up

Whipping around three deep
We're sitting in my jeep
Oh, it's been a stressful week
I could use the company
Searching for some inner peace
You still feel incomplete
You start to question shit like what's the point in anything

You want me to air it out
You tell me it's getting hot
We smoke half a J, I cannot retrace my thoughts
All these run on sentences, what the difference is
Which one do you prefer?
Sative or Indica?

Backseat
I'm the one you need to be around
'Cause I won't bring you down
No, I won't bring you down
No, I won't ever bring you down
You don't gotta ask me
Already know what I will provide
No, I won't steer you wrong
No, I won't steer you wrong
No, I won't give you the run around

Say yes or no
Only if you wanna
'Bout that time
Time for me to roll up

Say yes or no
Only if you wanna
'Bout that time
Time for me to roll up

Retrograde lyrics - Khalid (feat. 6LACK & Lucky Daye)

Around the world like I'm touring
Gotta fly out in the morning
I don't know where I'm going
But it's ninety-nine in New Orleans, ah
When it's raining it's pouring
I'm better off by the ocean breeze
Easier not knowing
Gotta live in the moment

My personal and business lives are separate
They're only fucking with you for your benefits
Don't get your feelings hurt being sensitive, no
Get your feelings hurt being sensitive, no

I'll take some time, sit in my retrograde
I'm getting high so I don't feel no pain
In my mind, I feel it in my veins
Retro, Retrograde

Found a little comfort in the pain
Ain't no fucking love on your brain
'Cause if it was you would think about
Everything I gotta think about
They fucking with me for the benefit
How am I supposed to know?
When everybody sound the same in a new Lambo (Vroom vroom)
Light the blunt scotty beam me up (Zoom zoom)
Time to leave the room, yeah

My personal and business lives are separate
They're only fucking with you for your benefits
Don't get your feelings hurt being sensitive, no
Get your feelings hurt being sensitive, no

I'll take some time, sit in my retrograde
I'm getting high so I don't feel no pain
In my mind, I feel it in my veins
Retro, Retrograde

And it's taking me far
Taking me far, yeah
Take me follow, follow, follow, follow, far
Retro-Retrograde

Oh baby, you caught me off guard, let you play me
Why'd I involve my heart?
Wherever you go let you take me
Gotta watch all my movement like hooligan, right now
I'm certain I need you but I'm way too loud
From enemies to frenemies don't know who to trust
Can't rush through the phases, oh my

My personal and business lives are separate
They're only fucking with you for your benefits
Don't get your feelings hurt being sensitive, no
Get your feelings hurt being sensitive, no

I'll take some time, sit in my retrograde
I'm getting high so I don't feel no pain
In my mind, I feel it in my veins
Retro, Retrograde (Retrograde)

And it's taking me far
Taking me far, yeah
Take me follow, follow, follow, follow, far
Retro-Retrograde

Brand New lyrics - Khalid (feat. QUIN)

I wanna ride with you, yeah-yeah
Just say the word and you know I'm on my way
But that don't mean nothing to you
I still hear you say to me

But you wanna be in my ear
Talking all this and that
And you wanna know what's on my mind
And I got it bad
Do I wanna take it there?
Kinda feeling that
I been checkin' you a long, long, long time
And I want you bad

You know what I want, don't be acting brand new
I got what you want, don't be acting brand new
I could put you on, put you on something new
Come and put me on, put me on something new
You know what I want, don't be acting brand new
I got what you want, don't be acting brand new
I could put you on, put you on something new
Come and put me on, put me on something new

You know what it is
Face to face
I give you the biz
Say my name
Pull up in a Benz
Switching lanes
I can throw it all
It ain't a thing

But you wanna be in my ear
Talking all this and that
And you wanna know what's on my mind
And I got it bad
Do I even wanna take it there?
Kinda feeling that
I been checkin' you a long, long, long time
And I want you bad

You know what I want, don't be acting brand new
I got what you want, don't be acting brand new
I could put you on, put you on something new
Come and put me on, put me on something new
You know what I want, don't be acting brand new
I got what you want, don't be acting brand new
I could put you on, put you on something new
Come and put me on, put me on something new

All I Feel Is Rain lyrics - Khalid (feat. JID)

Although I got love for you
I still can't change your ways
You say you need me the most
Only 'cause I'm here with you
Some things aren't adding up 'cause your actions stay the same
Why won't you tell me the truth?

If I knew from day one that you wouldn't ride
They say the pain hits you by surprise
You made it sound like you were down, now, you switching sides on me
I know everything, you don't gotta hide from me
I can see it all looking in your eyes
So, tell me what I wanna hear but it's still a lie to me
Never knew you'd be the one to live a double life on me

All I feel is rain
When you creep out in the night
And you cause me so much pain
But I still stand by your side
I cannot feel a thing
Sometimes I medicate
So I don't feel the rain
When you creep out in the night
And you cause me so much pain

Look, uh, check
So many good girls but I tend to love on the trouble type
But I draw a line if I'm thinking you live a double life
Devil on your left side shoulder, a angel on the right
We right in the middle of arguing at the party
Who started it? Hit the gas
You talkative, 'bout to crash
Who parking it? Getting mad
Is your barking at me for saying you heartless?
Trying my hardest to get in harmony
But we harboring feelings, so, hovering clouds, feeling down

If I knew from day one that you wouldn't ride
They say the pain hits you by surprise
You made it sound like you were down, now, you switching sides on me
I know everything, you don't gotta hide from me
I can see it all looking in your eyes
So, tell me what I wanna hear but it's still a lie to me
Never knew you'd be the one to live a double life on me

All I feel is rain
When you creep out in the night
And you cause me so much pain
But I still stand by your side
I cannot feel a thing
Sometimes I medicate
So I don't feel the rain
When you creep out in the night
And you cause me so much pain

All I feel is rain
I couldn't believe it, couldn't believe you, no
Look at what you made me do
Tell me you were never there for me

Voicemail lyrics - Khalid (feat. Kiana Ledé)

When there's someone you like
Not someone you love
Say you needed the time
And I don't wanna fuss
Got a lot on your mind
And I'm not one to trust

Are we playing a game?
Am I down on my luck?
'Cause this shit's not the same
We don't even touch
Should I stay in my lane?
I don't wanna bug you

So, when you're laying in your bed
Playing my songs
Can we share the thoughts that you keep? (That you keep from me)
Oh, you're running through my head
Leading me on
Honestly, I wouldn't change a thing

I won't be such a drag
You don't gotta worry 'bout that
I give you your space if you need it
Say it to my face if you mean it
You make me so mad
Why you gotta do me like that?
Don't leave me waiting for no reason
Say it to my face if you mean it

Don't leave me waiting, waiting, waiting
Don't leave me waiting, waiting, waiting
Don't leave me waiting, waiting, waiting
Don't leave me waiting, waiting, waiting

Why when I pull your way you start to let go?
I open up and you throw it out the window
I'd do anything for you to say
All we can do is try but you're so in denial
Been working at this for a long, long time
It's feeling stagnant, we don't even fuck
And I just stay in my lane 'cause I don't wanna bug you

So, when you're laying in your bed
Playing my songs
Can we share the thoughts that you keep? (That you keep from me)
Oh, you're running through my head
Leading me on
Honestly, I wouldn't change a thing (No, I wouldn't change a thing)

I won't be such a drag (Yeah)
You don't gotta worry 'bout that
I give you your space if you need it
Say it to my face if you mean it
You make me so mad
Why you gotta do me like that?
Don't leave me waiting for no reason
Say it to my face if you mean it

Don't leave me waiting, waiting, waiting
Don't leave me waiting, waiting, waiting
Don't leave me waiting, waiting, waiting
Don't leave me waiting, waiting, waiting

Open lyrics - Khalid (feat. Majid Jordan)

It's a full moon outside
Light up the floor
Out on my way to you
You should see me, tonight
I'm at your door
Got something to say to you

Have I seen you in another life?
It's like I met you before
Caught up in the moment
Caught up in the moment, I know I am

I can hear you calling, yeah, yeah
Too much, now, I'm all in, yeah, yeah
Dive into your ocean, yeah, yeah
Leave your schedule open, whoa, whoa
I can hear you calling, yeah, yeah
Too much, now, I'm all in, yeah, yeah
Dive into your ocean, yeah, yeah
Leave your schedule open, whoa, whoa

You look perfect
Got sparks in your eyes
Loves hard to find
Both of us know that that's the truth
Put my plans to the side
We'll be just fine
Especially, when I'm next you

Have I seen you in another life?
It's like I met you before
Never been so open
Caught up in the moment, I know I am

I can hear you calling, yeah, yeah
Too much, now, I'm all in, yeah, yeah
Dive into your ocean, yeah, yeah
Leave your schedule open, whoa, whoa
I can hear you calling, yeah, yeah
Too much, now, I'm all in, yeah, yeah
Dive into your ocean, yeah, yeah
Leave your schedule open, whoa, whoa

I can hear you calling
Too much, now, I'm all in
Dive into your ocean
Leave tomorrow open

I can hear you calling, yeah, yeah
I can hear you calling
Too much, now, I'm all in, yeah, yeah
Too much, now, I'm all in
Dive into your ocean, yeah, yeah
Dive into your ocean
Leave your schedule open, whoa, whoa
Leave tomorrow open

Woah, woah
I can hear you

Scenic Drive lyrics - Khalid (feat. Smino & Ari Lennox)

Yeah, yeah (Ah, ah, ah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, ooh

Hours seem to go too fast when I'm with you
Just watch it all go past when I'm with you
And that's the usual, but I love what we got goin' on
It's best I let you know, woah (Ooh-ah)
I just hope that I don't crash when I'm with you
It's like I'm on my last when I'm with you
I see you're down for me
Gotta keep the windows rolled up 'til it gets hard to breathe

We'll be chasin' a high, it feels amazin' (It feels amazin')
You in my ride, we were just blazin'
Under the lights, straight to the ceilin'
Out on my drive, give me a feelin'
Chasin' a high, it feels amazin' (It feels amazin')
You in my ride, we were just blazin'
Under the lights, straight to the ceilin'
Out on my drive, give me a feelin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Ooh, ooh
Might just do the dash when I'm with you
Climb up on your lap, put it in cruise
So incredible (Yeah), and I shifted lanes, you the realest one on the coast
Body drippin' like a spring when I'm with you (You)
We're electricity, don't need no fuse (Fuse)
Makin' you lose control
Doin' donuts on it, keep it going 'til you can't no more (Can't no more, hey)

We'll be chasin' a high, it feels amazin' (It feels amazin')
You in my ride, we were just blazin'
Under the lights, straight to the ceilin'
Out on my drive, give me a feelin' (You got me feelin')
Chasin' a high, it feels amazin' (It feels amazin')
You in my ride, we were just blazin' (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Under the lights, straight to the ceilin'
Out on my drive, give me a feelin' (Oh, baby)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Baby (Baby)
I love her if I love at all
I don't need no award, no applaud, uh-huh
Just take
Tell me a time and a place and I promise I'll make an appointment
I never been one to be chasin' no woman
I fuck 'round and treat to do time
My forces, I fuck 'round it, uh
Back to the drawing board, bored drunk got da Lauryn on
Love, long as a corridor
Word, lil' baby my favorite chore
Sure, other dudes had before
I did, but I don't give a fuck 'bout nobody or no bodies
Yellow big face on the watch look like Sade
My nigga got a ride in the back, she got shotty
Comme des Garçons, your name
Sweater like crazy (Ooh, ooh)
Love me out loud, L-O-L
'Cause you my baby (Mm)
Cracked a whole tooth, you so sweet
My friends ain't seen me for weeks
I highway chase your heart at high speed, nanana
You like it when I'm chasin'

We'll be chasin' a high, it feels amazin' (It feels amazin')
You in my ride, we were just blazin'
Under the lights, straight to the ceilin'
Out on my drive give me a feelin'
Chasin' a high, it feels amazin' (It feels amazin')
You in my ride, we were just blazin' (When we're just blazin')
Under the lights, straight to the ceilin'
Out on my drive give me a feelin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
