Lyrics

Balance

[Intro: NAO]

I'm on the tipping point

Tipping point of catching feelings

I'm taking in the signs

What you're giving, I'm receiving (Uh)

[Pre-Chorus: NAO]

I need the right resonance, right elements

Are you a night veteran, I'm letting in?

Do you like it fast? 'Cause I like it slow

[Chorus: NAO]

I need balance, balance, keep you on your toes

I need balance, balance, take it nice and slow

I need balance, balance, keep you on your toes

I need balance (Balance), balance (Balance), take it nice and slow

I need balance (Balance), balance (Balance), keep you on your toes

[Verse 1: NAO]

Take time, take prеssure off

More life, can't gеt enough

Late night vibes gotta hit deep

My peace, I celebrate

You're here, please, elevate

Bad mind can never catch me (Yeah)

I need that moderation

Make sure you treat it like it's sacred

You're the water, I'm the fire, I need cooling down

Get into it, get into it, don't you let me down

[Pre-Chorus: NAO]

I need the right resonance, right elements

Are you a night veteran, I'm letting in?

Do you like it fast? 'Cause I like it slow

[Chorus: NAO]

I need balance, balance, keep you on your toes

I need balance, balance, take it nice and slow

I need balance, balance, keep you on your toes

I need balance (Balance), balance (Balance), take it nice and slow

I need balance (Balance), balance (Balance), keep you on your toes

[Verse 2: Skillibeng]

Say you want balance

So me give you cocky and couple thousand dollar

She see the mic and a sing Tom tona

Music me live, but me rich like scammer

Me nuh Mick Jagger see the eastsyde Don yah

You thick like wah you get a eastsyde backaz

Boasty, she ride, she a real black stallion

You know say me cocky explode like cannon

You see dah bloodclaat gyal

Real baddaz weh a pose like hottas

Beat up the pussy and teach her manners

Rebalance make you scream and holler

Give you dagga, me give you the steel proper

Me a real shotta, your man real Don Dada

No passa, passa, she nuh want mama man

Trust me she know wah she want

[Pre-Chorus: NAO]

I need the right resonance, right elements

Are you a night veteran, I'm letting in?

Do you like it fast? 'Cause I like it slow

[Chorus: NAO]

I need balance, balance, keep you on your toes

I need balance, balance, take it nice and slow

I need balance, balance, keep you on your toes

I need balance (Balance), balance (Balance), take it nice and slow

I need balance (Balance), balance (Balance), keep you on your toes

[Outro]
