Smoke in the Sky

[intro]
Coals still glowing, yeah
Sun down, sound up
Mm, two in the morning

[verse]
Charcoal smoke drifting over the fence line
Plastic chairs full, somebody's playlist on mine
Auntie brought the jollof, told me "eat, you too thin"
Little cousins running wild on the wet grass again
String lights flicker, mosquitoes biting
We don't care, keep the grill firing
Phones in a pile, nobody scrolling
Just laughter rising where the front door's open

[chorus]
Smoke in the sky, two a.m. and we're still outside
Neighbors gave up, turned their lights off, let it slide
Old heads dancing like the record never stopped
Summer's in the yard and the party don't drop
Smoke in the sky, smoke in the sky
This moment right here, we ain't saying goodbye

[verse]
Somebody's uncle telling stories too long
Speaker on the porch playing all night songs
Sneakers in the grass, plates on the knees
Cold drink sweating in the summer breeze
Last kebab turning, sparks go higher
Tired kids asleep across the car, no liar
We kept the fire going, kept the hooks playing
Yesterday feels like a decade away

[chorus]
Smoke in the sky, two a.m. and we're still outside
Neighbors gave up, turned their lights off, let it slide
Old heads dancing like the record never stopped
Summer's in the yard and the party don't drop
Smoke in the sky, smoke in the sky
This moment right here, we ain't saying goodbye

[bridge]
When the streetlights blink and the night gets long
We just turn it up and sing along
Don't pack it up, don't call it done
Till the charcoal's grey and we see the sun

[chorus]
Smoke in the sky, two a.m. and we're still outside
Neighbors gave up, turned their lights off, let it slide
Old heads dancing like the record never stopped
Summer's in the yard and the party don't drop

[outro]
Smoke in the sky...
See the sun coming up, still don't go
Smoke in the sky, mm
One more song, one more song
