The 24-year-old superstar returned with his new track “Last Call,” along with an accompanying music video on Thursday .
Written by Khalid and produced by Digi, “Last Call” comes alongside a new music video directed by Levi Turner and Cody Laplan, where he pays homage to his growth from American Teen to now.
“I’m really excited to share ‘Last Call’ with all my fans,” Khalid shares. “It’s important to me to commemorate this day and look back at everything that has happened. I can’t believe it’s been five years already. I hope you guys enjoy it and celebrate with me and all we’ve done together.”
Khalid recently released his Scenic Drive tape which features collaborations from critically acclaimed stars such as Alicia Keys, Ari Lennox, 6LACK, Lucky Daye, JID, Smino, Majid Jordan, Kiana Ledé, and QUIN.
[Verse 1]
Search for what’ll set you free
It’s not 2017 anymore
So you trust in a guy like me
To give you everything in store
[Pre-Chorus]
We’ll be ridin’ ’round drop-top when it gets hot
Doin’ donuts in an empty lot like “Woah”
I’ll give you the finer things
Suddenly there’s nothing worth comparin’ to your soul
[Chorus]
Where do we go? Where do we stand?
In between a quick romance, somethin’ that’ll last long
Where do we go? Will you take my hand?
Meet me for a final dance, somethin’ like a last call
[Verse 2]
If this is worth it, I’m guessin’ that we’ll both find out in the end
You show me purpose and give me presence that I’ve never met
In this world full of hatred, somehow I feel your innocence
I’ll be patient, impatient, and I’ll be patient, impatient
[Pre-Chorus]
We’ll be ridin’ ’round drop-top when it gets hot
Doin’ donuts in an empty lot like “Woah”
I’ll give you the finer things
Suddenly there’s nothing worth comparin’ to your soul
[Chorus]
Tell me where do we go
Where do we go? Where do we stand?
In between a quick romance, somethin’ that’ll last long
(‘Cause it don’t last long, no)
Where do we go? Will you take my hand?
Meet me for a final dance, somethin’ like a last call
[Bridge]
Where do we start? Where do we start?
Where do we start? Where do we start?
Where do we start? Where do we start?
[Chorus]
Tell me where do we go
Where do we go? Where do we stand?
In between a quick romance, somethin’ that’ll last long
Where do we go? Will you take my hand?
Meet me for a final dance, somethin’ like a last call
