"After Dark" lyrics

"After Dark"
(feat. Static Major and Ty Dolla Sign)

Ha ha, ha ha
Yeah, ayy (After dark)

In the whip solo
No one's gotta know (After dark)
Knockin' at your door
I don't gotta work anymore (After dark)
You can
Put your phone down, you're gonna need two hands (After dark)
You can't get enough
Girl, you know I set it up, for after dark

Late night like Left Eye, I'm creepin'
Assuming the worst 'cause I haven't heard from you all weekend
Your silence is drivin' me up the wall, up the wall
I cannot tell if you're duckin' calls or missin' calls
'Cause you've been so patient
I drink on the job and smoke on the job
So, I don't know how serious you take it
Can't offer much more, you've heard it before
That narrative for me isn't changin'
I wanna make you a priority
I wanna let you know there's more to me
I wanna have your faith restored in me
I'll be on my way (After dark)

In the whip solo, no one's gotta know
(No one's gotta know) after dark
Knockin' at your door, I don't gotta work anymore
(I don't gotta work no more) after dark
You can, put your phone down, you're gonna need two hands
(Ooh yeah, ooh yeah) after dark
You can't get enough
Girl, you know I set it up, for after dark

Late night, me and you, got you wet like the pool
Then I'm tryna dive in, put some time in, yeah
Get the vibe right, get your mind right
It's gon' be a long night (Ooh yeah)
Put your feet in this water, don't wanna get your hair wet
We've hooked up a couple times, we ain't took it there yet
You broke up with your man and ain't been with nobody else
You like, "Fuck these niggas," rather keep it to yourself
He did you wrong, he left you down bad
Now you can't trust nobody
You said, "Do anything, but just don't lie to me"
I said I ride for you, girl, you said you ride for me
Um, pulled up to the show then we got ghost
And when it's after dark anything goes

In the whip solo, no one's gotta know
(No one's gotta know) after dark
Knockin' at your door, I don't gotta work anymore
(I don't gotta work no more) after dark
You can, put your phone down, you're gonna need two hands
(Ooh yeah, ooh yeah) after dark
You can't get enough
Girl, you know I set it up, for after dark

This song contains a sample of "The Suite Theme" performed by Maxwell.
The line "Late night like Left Eye, I'm creepin'" is a reference to the song "Creep" by a girl group TLC Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes was a member of.
The end of this song mentions the radio station WBLK from Buffalo, NY, which specializes in hip-hop and R&B. The station can also be heard in Toronto, and back then it was the only way for the people there to access such music.
After this song's release, the telephone number of a Buffalo radio station WBLK was called thousand times by fans to check if it was real. The public statement of WBLK said, "We are now the station-of-choice based on calls we're getting from Australia, Germany, Italy, etc, and of course the numerous calls from just about every State in America." Drake replied to this, "This station raised us."
