AKA – Tears Run Dry (prod. NELCNO)

Lyrics

[Chorus]
First thing on my mind, when I wake up
I cannot feel sunshine
‘Cause you ​not by my side
And nothing else, can replace her (Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Tried to break down and cry, but all my tears run dry

[Post-Chorus]
Bullet proof vest
Guardian angel, bullet proof bless
Not to lay down and die
This life [?]
And meet my everlasting love (Ooh ooh)
Paid the price for my bride

[Verse 1]
I saw you in my dreams
Maybe that’s why I’m so terrified to go to sleep
Not because I don’t wanna link up with you again
But because when I wake up reality just deep
Check my phone, I reach I can see usual routine
Damn, we had so many plans mfana kithi
And I call you that ‘causе you my bestie not my bitch
When I go to bеd who gon’ remind me “Brush your teeth”?
Moisturiser on your skin so you look good on the screen
[?]
That’s my favourite version of you, you were just at ease
By far the most beautiful girl I had ever seen

[Chorus]
First thing on my mind (Question is, did you believe?), when I wake up
I cannot feel sunshine
‘Cause you ​not by my side
Nothing else, can replace her (Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Tried to break down and cry, but all my tears run dry

[Post-Chorus]
Bullet proof vest
Guardian angel, bullet proof bless
Not to lay down and die
This life [?]
And meet my everlasting love (Ooh ooh)
Paid the price for my bride

[Verse 2]
Offer for your love, it was with a chance
I’m reminiscing on days we’d be [?]
Used to ride Louis V, clutch bag, shirt to the pants
Yeah we stayed fly there was bound to be turbulence
Sporadic thoughts
Now it’s a bitter pill to swallow
Inside just hallow
[?] Coca Cola bottle my emotions
So I’m busy living like there’s no tomorrow
So many apologies I owe you
Don’t tell me nothin’ about snacks when I got soul food
That’s why I chose you
Diamond ring froze you
(We were supposed to do what we supposed to)

[Chorus]
First thing on my mind, when I wake up
I cannot feel sunshine
‘Cause you ​not by my side
And nothing else, can replace her (Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Tried to break down and cry, but all my tears run dry

[Post-Chorus]
Bullet proof vest
Guardian angel, bullet proof bless
Not to lay down and die
This life [?]
And meet my everlasting love (Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Paid the price for my bride

[Outro]
Go Nelli, it’s your birthday
We’re gonna party like it’s your birthday
Grand baby, mixed with champagne
In heaven, with your mommy
We were supposed to do what we supposed to
(But all my tears run dry-I-I-I-I)
