Doa

Darkness of the night, will you lead me astray?
Reaching for my life, you see something in me
Can’t get you off my mind, no, Ah huh
Something strange is coming over me
He’s right beside me, going…
Walking while running outta options
I could Uber to the other side of town but my battery life is on…
Let me check, shit.
It’s on two percent
It ain’t nearly enough, like the cash I got in my pocket
That’s when I see someone stoppin', hopin' this nigga God sent
In his beat up Cressida
He rolled the window down
I sense a evil demeanour, man I should turn around
But where’m I goin', It’s 2AM in the morning
Man fuck it, I’m being paranoid
Voice in my head tell me «Chill, Stop being hella moist»
He looked me dead in the face, asked me «You need a ride?»
So I hop in, and I’m just hopin' I’ll be alright
«So where you goin'?»
I told him and he just started laughing
Said «You're in luck because that’s exactly where I’ll be passing»
I get a sudden sense of relief and relax a little
Smile on his face reassured me that I could trust a nigga
And so we riding, while on the way he be cracking jokes
We chuckle up, reach for the dash and he pass me smokes, we spark it up
Approaching the gas station, he asks if I mind waiting, I said «Nah»
Still uneasy, can’t help it, my mind racing
So I waited, grateful that I made it this far
He got out, and that’s when I start searching the car
I’m wondering what I’m in for
I’m tryna find me some info
Who this nigga?
What he plannin'?
And what’s he so kind to me for?
As I’m going down this rabit hole, I found some documents that were inside his
cabbin hole
I found his ID, dating back a hundred years or so
Thinkin' I’m trippin' or some thing, this gotta be a joke
He walkin' back and I can’t help but notice his pale skin
He lookin' back at me with that same grin
Open the car, came in
Gave me a drink and told me not to worry, he got me covered
So I thought he wouldn’t do me dirty
But I still wondered
Darkness of the night, will you lead me astray?
Reaching for my life, you see some things in me
Can’t get you off my mind, no, Ah huh
Something strange is coming over me
He’s right beside me, going…
Whoa woah, oh oh
Worlds apart, worlds apart
So I let it go and keep it moving, yeah
Engine runnin' and we’re movin'
Askin' if he got some music
He said «Nah, here’s another doob hit»
I said «Nah nigga, play the music»
«You ain’t got none!?, nigga bullshit»
«Here I got some, It’s some new shit»
He’s like «Who's this?»
I’m like «Who this?! Are you stupid?! This' Drake»
You Know Jay? Like The Blueprint, Magna Carta Holy Grail?
I can see he don’t relate, I could see it in his face
Thinking this is kinda strange
So I ask about his age, he said he Twenty Five
When, back in Seventy five?
We laugh it off
He hit the gas so I buckle up
We going fast, What the fuck is up?
He like «Chill nigga»
«Fuck how you feel nigga»
You needed help, going through hell and you met a real nigga
And so, we kept on talking and we had some things in common
Told me 'bout life and conspiracies
How he searches for inner peace
He had an empty gaze
Staring at the road so eerily
I’m tryna hide the fear in me
Running from the inner me
I take a closer look at his features
Skin looked like he bleached it
Hands ashy and his nails weren’t the cleanest
And a certain smell emerged out the blue
But then he just, couldn’t smell it
That’s the price I had to pay for convenience
Now the headlights flicking from the other side of traffic
Made me notice cataracts in is eyes
I’m thinking «That's it, nigga pull over, i’ll be fine here»
He said «We almost there»
«Nigga we almost where!?»
He said «Do not despair»
Before I knew it, we were at a memorial site
Told me that’s where he died and so would I
I watched him age in front of me
And got younger right after he, dragged me out the car and beat my forehead
with a shovel
He said «This' what’s become of me»
«I'm grateful for your company»
«Thanks for the recovery»
And as I try to ask him please… *Spade hits… spade starts digging*
