Midnight Wonders

by Mars Alva

on If I Had Words: 70s Hit Wonders (2020), Midnight Wonders (2019)

[Verse 1]
Like Jet Li, I drop kicks
Just one punch, like Bruce Lee
I shoot shit, like Spike Lee
My life feels like James Dean
I'm a rebel with a cause
I run shit at no cost
I take shots at everything
Close my eyes 'til I'm 33

And I'm bumping
I'm grinding
I'm dreaming
I'm fighting
I'm taking my chances
At losing or shining
I do shit politely
Except if you doubt me
I don't fuck with burnouts
I just mix with compounds

Just wait 'till your girl wants to take a picture
All my words making way to television
On the side less important making millions
Get an Oscar and a Grammy in the same year
Ain't nobody give a fuck about my birthday
I'm a young Da Vinci on the making
I'm an innovator baby just creating
Don't care about the turnout
Don't care about the paycheck

[Hook]
Making wonders working past midnight
Cooking up the lab is where I live at
Making wonders working past midnight
Cooking up the lab is where I live at

Making, Making
Making, Making
Making, Making
Making Wonders
Making, Making
Making, Making
Making, Making
Making Wonders

[Verse 2]
Wake up all groggy like a Monday
Tryna turn every day into a fun day
Praise high, all night just like a Sunday
My life getting sweeter than a sundae

And I got my problems, and I got my demons
But baby I'm running, the catch up, I free fall
I keep waking up at two in the morning
Writing some lyrics and writing some sonnets
I'm faster than light, the Flash of the lightning
You hear me before, the thunder arrives in
I don't think about it, I don't even plan it
I'm in auto-pilot, embracing this madness
Brown emo boy with the rhymes like Kanye
Chopping down beats, Pharrell's lil prodigy
Mumbling about post-modern philosophy
Feeling like Homer, I'm writing an Odyssey

Making wonders working past midnight
Cooking up the lab is where I live at
Making wonders working past midnight
Cooking up the lab is where I live at

[Hook]
Making, Making
Making, Making
Making, Making
Making Wonders
Making, Making
Making, Making
Making, Making
Making Wonders
