Intro
Sparkler in my hand, light it slow Two-thirty on Collins Ave, watch the bottle glow
Verse 1
Valet got my keys, but I still owe the rent Bought a forty-dollar table off a check ain't spent Washington Ave sweat got the collar gone damp Smiling for the section while I'm doing the math Ice in the cup melting faster than my count Everybody dressed like they figured it out Keep my phone face-down, balance like a wound La cuenta in my pocket, I'ma open it soon
Pre-chorus 1
And the door keep swinging, every face a maybe Red wash on the ceiling, somebody calling safety
Chorus
Sparkler on the bottle, watch it burn down to my thumb Red light, blue light, can't tell the law from the fun Bodies in the fog and everybody on they phone I hold the light up high, but the table ain't my home Hundred-dollar smoke and a heart I can't afford Buy another hour 'fore the morning keep the score
Post-chorus
Burning down, sparkler burning down Burning down, hold it 'til it's gone Burning down, light it slow
Verse 2
Thumbing through a feed with the game on the screen Blue glow on her chin, she ain't here, she just lean Dude in the booth texting somebody "you up?" Backup plan loading while he sipping from a cup I been Brickell all night but I'm Liberty City blood Borrowed all this shine, give it back at once The 305 humid, even AC taste like rain Laughing extra loud to keep away the drain
Pre-chorus 2
And the door keep swinging, here come yesterday Old face in the strobe, I forgot what I would say
Chorus
Sparkler on the bottle, watch it burn down to my thumb Red light, blue light, can't tell the law from the fun Bodies in the fog and everybody on they phone I hold the light up high, but the table ain't my home Hundred-dollar smoke and a heart I can't afford Buy another hour 'fore the morning keep the score
Post-chorus
Burning down, sparkler burning down Burning down, hold it 'til it's gone Burning down, light it slow
Verse 3
She walk in like a bill I forgot I never paid Used to split a Cuban on Calle Ocho in the shade Now I nod like I'm good, the section is proof Two lights on the table and they both telling truth One to show the room, one to count what's behind Sparkler for the picture, phone for the mind
Bridge
[drums drop out, near a cappella, vocal close and dry] Cut the music, let me say it while it's quiet The flex is a costume, and the calm is a riot I be brightest in the dark 'cause I'm scared of the light The number ain't the man, but I check it every night
Verse 4
I-95 at four, just the AC and a sigh Sparkler in the ashtray, little ghost of the night Wynwood murals watching like they know how I lied Ocean Drive behind me, a parade already died
Verse 5
Cafecito at the window 'fore the body wanna crash Croqueta in a napkin and my last few dollars cash On the 836 with the windows cracked Sun come up pink over Biscayne, slow and fake Tomorrow's a number I ain't yet ready to take But the sparkler said it gentle: nothing keep its place
Pre-chorus 3
And the door done stopped swinging, just the hum and the heat Light burned to the bottom, and it's only me
Chorus
Sparkler on the bottle, watch it burn down to my thumb Red light, blue light, can't tell the law from the fun Bodies in the fog and everybody on they phone I held the light up high, now I'm driving myself home Hundred-dollar smoke and a heart I can't afford Danced another hour, and the morning kept the score
Post-chorus
Burning down, sparkler burning down Burning down, now it's gone Burning down, light it slow Burning down, just the road
Outro
Two-thirty on Collins Ave, now it's six on the bay Light it slow, watch it leave. That's the only way it stay.
