Velvet Rope

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

You know what time it is

Leave the lights low

Let it ride

Verse 1

Silk on my collar gold on my wrist

Whole lotta motion I move like this

Valet outside with the keys to the six

I don't make promises I make deposits

Palm trees dancing across the hotel wall

Got no reason to answer that call

They want the old me can't give them that at all

Built my own lane now I'm breaking the mold

I like my nights with a little mystery

Good conversation no cameras with me

They want the story they don't know the history

Turned a couple losses into victory

Pre-Chorus

Ooh don't kill the vibe

We got nowhere to be tonight

The world's outside

But everything in here feels right

Chorus

Pull back the velvet rope

Let me in where the real ones go

Got a pocket full of things untold

And a heart that's worth more than gold

Don't need no invitation

I built my own foundation

Whole room caught that vibration

I'm in a different situation

(Different different)

Verse 2

New coupe cream seats woodgrain

Big check came did it all again

They talk online I don't entertain

My accountant know every number by name

Sunday morning still dressed from the night

Sun coming up through the shades just right

Made a few moves that changed my life

Now the whole damn future looking extra bright

No rented image no borrowed shine

Everything here got a story behind

Don't need a crowd just to feel like I'm fine

Was him before the world caught the signs

Pre-Chorus

Ooh don't kill the vibe

We got nowhere to be tonight

The world's outside

But everything in here feels right

Chorus

Pull back the velvet rope

Let me in where the real ones go

Got a pocket full of things untold

And a heart that's worth more than gold

Don't need no invitation

I built my own foundation

Whole room caught that vibration

I'm in a different situation

(Different different)

Bridge

Take me somewhere the clocks don't move

Somewhere the air got a different groove

Spent all year with something to prove

Now I got nothing left to lose

Ooh let the colors run

Let the night become the sun

If tomorrow comes too soon

Let me stay inside this groove

Chorus

Pull back the velvet rope

Let me in where the real ones go

Got a pocket full of things untold

And a heart that's worth more than gold

Don't need no invitation

I built my own foundation

Whole room caught that vibration

I'm in a different situation

Outro

Different situation

Same ambition

No permission

Just precision

(Mm)

(Yeah)
