about

On the one year anniversary of his Billboard-charting album, Call Me Ace remains in Airplane Mode! His new single, “Red Eye,” embodies Ace’s well-known traits of always-on hustle and constant bustling towards the finish line. Whether “hopping on planes like taxis” or rushing in-and-out of global entry checkpoints, Call Me Ace exudes a strong aura of purpose as he embodies his calling to share his creative gifts for the benefit of his audience—you!

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hoppin’ on planes like taxis no backseat (Sheesh)
Time for some shut eye on this red eye
High Grade head high
Feelin’ cabin pressure treat the force like jedi
Too empowered to be countered (Unh)
Bet I secure what’s ours led by the spirit
Been grindin’ for hours flyin’ with mileage (Yea)
Came a long way from starvin’ and zero deposit (Unh)
Stewardess servin’ codfish ain’t pull out my wallet (Hah)
Yea they Call Me Ace but that don’t mean I’m the smartest (Nah)
But I could play this game smooth without blowin’ the cartridge
4K sharpness deep in the prophets and the psalmists
Could care less if I was born in August (Wow)
Takin’ up the load up on my shoulders cause I know I got some folk
That like to quote what I had wrote cause in my words they findin’ hope
And the motivation needed to keep holdin’ on the rope
So for you I write so much that I can’t keep my eyes closed
On this red eye

[Chorus]
Yea
No rest on this red eye (Unh)
I can only think about you on this red eye (Yea)
Tryna help you see what I view through these red eyes (Yea)
I can only think about you on this red eye (Yea)
No rest on this red eye (Unh)
I can only think about you on this red eye (Yea)
Tryna help you see what I view through these red eyes (Yea)
I can only think about you (Woop!)

[Verse 2]
Global entry but don’t call it a comeback (Sheesh)
Security shock you could see how they jump back (Hah)
Back home for a couple days then I rush back (Gone)
I’ll go the distance for the prize if I want that (Yup)
Every now and then I think of homies I once had (Hmm)
Cut back off the negative had to subtract (Wow)
Addin’ up the pie divide it up for the ones
That had my back when I was hunchback was helpin’ me thrust back (Woop!)
Now we full throttle plane movin’ somewhat fast (Vrrm)
Situation changin’ so much I don’t unpack (Nah)
Just so much happenin’ I’m still tryna unpack (Wow)
People see a glimpse online and wanna discuss that (Nah)
Opps think I’m eatin’ so they plottin’ my lunch bag
Gotta soy sauce duck that, limit that contact (Sheesh)
Cut from a clean cloth stay on thumbtack
That’s why I really can’t sleep instead I think deep
On this red eye

[Chorus]
Yea
No rest on this red eye (Unh)
I can only think about you on this red eye (Yea)
Tryna help you see what I view through these red eyes (Yea)
I can only think about you on this red eye (Yea)
No rest on this red eye (Unh)
I can only think about you on this red eye (Yea)
Tryna help you see what I view through these red eyes (Yea)
I can only think about you (Woop!)
