Lyrics
On the cloud nine
Feeling elated and joyful
Having good times
Enjoying positive experiences
Doing God's work
Engaged in meaningful and righteous actions
Loving on us
Expressing love and affection towards each other
The night is ours
Claiming ownership of the night
To just devour
Fully indulging in the present moment
Despite the effort
Despite challenges or obstacles
To make us nervous
Attempts to make them anxious or uneasy
To throw us off in the moment
Interruptions or distractions in the moment
To throw us off in the moment
Repeated emphasis on potential disruptions
To ruin our excitement
Efforts to spoil their enthusiasm
To ruin our excitement
Continued attempts to dampen excitement
Living in style
Living a fashionable and stylish lifestyle
Catching a vibe
Feeling a positive and enjoyable atmosphere
Comes the BS
However, facing adversity or negativity
State sanctioned violence
Encountering violence authorized by the state
The night is ours
Reiterating ownership of the night despite challenges
To just devour
Continuing to relish the present moment
Despite the effort
Facing attempts to induce nervousness
To make us nervous
Repeated efforts to make them uneasy
To throw us off in the moment
Continued interruptions in the current experience
To throw us off in the moment
Reiterating the potential for disruptions
To ruin our excitement
Persistent attempts to spoil the excitement
To ruin our excitement
Continued efforts to dampen enthusiasm
We will not stop
Commitment to persevere and not give up
This will not stop
Assertion that the positive experience will endure
We're hanging out
Socializing and expressing themselves boldly
Living out loud
Living life openly and authentically
Despite their tact
Despite their strategies or approaches
To shake us down
Attempts to intimidate or extort them
To throw us off in this moment
Interruptions or distractions in this particular moment
To throw us off in this moment
Repeating the potential for disruptions now
To ruin our excitement
Continued efforts to spoil the excitement at this moment
To ruin our excitement
Persisting attempts to dampen enthusiasm now
Tonight is ours
Reasserting ownership of the night
To just devour
Continuing to fully enjoy the present moment
Despite the effort
Despite ongoing attempts to induce nervousness
To make us nervous
Repeating efforts to make them uneasy
This is our turf
Emphasizing a sense of ownership and belonging
This is our stuff
Highlighting possessions and personal belongings
This is our turf
Reiterating a sense of territorial ownership
This is our turf
Repeating a claim to territorial ownership
