Musiq Soulchild - OCTOBER 31ST Lyrics

These dating streets ain't what they used to be (no)
Tryna take things slow first time we meet (yeah)
Maybe get some drinks and grab something to eat
They be tryna get flewed out to Ibiza
First class flights, hotels on the beach
Probably got a man but you with me on the creep
Want your hair did, nails did and your feet (yeah)
Even pay your rent, girl, you need to

(Slow down)
Yeah, I don't know what you on
Moving like I owe you when I don't even know ya
(Slow down)
Uh, and then you try to play me
When I don't wanna pay it, if you're broke, just say it
(Slow down)
Ayy, I might not make it
Just out here surfing 'cause the dating pool is tainted
(Slow down)
Uh, I'm tryna find a way to (go now)
She got me feeling like I won't find it at all

Ayy, tryna find love's for the birds
Yeah, scary like October 31st
Hey, masked couples tryna find out what it's really worth
And it's only getting worse
Ain't nobody tryna get hurt

(Monday) on the rebound from breaking up
(Tuesday) get something new at the club
(Wednesday) I got the nerve to hit her up
(Thursday) she dropped the addy, now I'm pulling up
(Friday) I hit, I think I'm in love
(Saturday)
(Sunday) and that's how they treat you
Out here searching for a keeper when I know I need to

(Slow down)
Yeah, I don't know what I'm on
Moving like I owe them when I don't even know 'em
(Slow down)
Uh, and then they try to play me
When I don't wanna pay it, if you're broke, just say it
(Slow down)
Ayy, I might not make it
Just out here surfing 'cause the dating pool is tainted
(Slow down)
Uh, I'm tryna find a way to (go now)
They got me feeling like I won't find it at all

Ayy, tryna find love's for the birds
Yeah, scary like October 31st
Hey, masked couples tryna find out what it's really worth
And it's only getting worse
Ain't nobody tryna get hurt

So, before the streetlights come on (Hey, so, before the streetlights)
I'll get on my bike and just go home (I'll get on my bike and go home)
What's the reason for me to be outside for? ('Cause what's the reason for me to be outside?)
Guess, I've stayed too long (too long)
First red flag and I'm gone (and I'm gone)

I'm caramel complected, elected, it ain't no Kamala
The ambiance of a goddess, bad as a toddler (bad)
Let her work her work
It's a difference between ol' dirty and Dirt McGirt
Think I had a surf and turf (steak and lobster)
Colder beats, spooky as October 31st
Early dirt create the flowers, I'm probably burnin' purp
Pablo and the Soulchild, I bet they know now (I bet)
See my destiny with no child, my vision's so loud, slow down
Speeding through them drinks got you twisted like a pretzel (twisted)
From the projects, player up in his meeting in a sweatsuit
Monday to sunday, thinking how I'm gon' stretch you
You bad, but if you wrong, I'm gon' correct you
Your ex knew you were so toxic, needed a gas mask
Usually the realest out the mix get the last laugh
Either that paper coming slow or get it fast
Acting like you was a fan, you was tryna get with fab
I be knowin'

Ayy, tryna find love's for the birds
Yeah, scary like October 31st
Hey, masked couples tryna find out what it's really worth
And it's only getting worse
Ain't nobody tryna get hurt
