11.11 Lyrics

[Chorus]
Dark nights, I can't sleep, so I cry 'til I close my eyes (Cheeze)
I never asked God, "Why?" I just go where the road designed (Go Grizz, woah)
Take a look in the sky (Sky), my eyes open wide (Ayy, bro, is that Jambo?)
All eyes on me, but I'm no 2Pac

[Verse]
I'm a G.O.A.T., I'm a boss, I'm a leader (Woo)
Won't settle for nothing, not even it's cheaper
To fill up my tank, I need drank by the liter
I bought her a car and that bitch was a creeper (Skrrt)
Got the keys to the streets but you might got amnesia
Got Cheeze on the beat, so you know this a heater
Put cheese on me last, just like I'm a pizza
Hold on, I just caught a fever (Go)
You forgot how I put it together
The Rocket and 'Cho, we gon' last forever (Take')
5:30, Huncho and 'Set get up early and go out and go get that bag together ('Set)
Who the fuck gonna put us together? Can't nobody put this shit back together
So stay the fuck out of the middle, lil' fella, we always gon' be that, we fam' forever (Migo)
How I look tryna dance with the devil, got ice in my cross and my dad was a reverend (Huh?)
I watched my brother Takeoff go to heaven, an angel, we celebrate eleven-eleven (Angel)
Greatest group, I can count up some blessings (Soo)
Stay connected like charging a Tessie (Skrrt)
Fuck a nigga, I'm down with my bestie (Fuck)
That's my 'phew, I can never forget him
No weapons formed against me shall prosper (Nah)
Fuck a closet, cleaning out my locker (Woo)
Talk to me nice, not proper
I'm looking for the smoke like a Rasta'
I'll call on him if I need a partner (Grr)
Even though what he did was kinda

It's bigger than us and let's not remind her (Big)
We together, nigga, get the chopper (Rraow)
[Chorus]
Dark nights, I can't sleep, so I cry 'til I close my eyes
I never asked God, "Why?" (God), I just go where the road designed (No)
Take a look in the sky (Sky), my eyes open wide (Wide)
All eyes on me, but I'm no 2Pac

[Outro]
Open wide, speed it up (Speed it up, speed it up)
On the moon, mama's only son (Mama, mama)
Good drank what my nephew loved (Purple, purple)
Don't break the seal, you can't open one (Nope)
Dark nights, I can't sleep for none
Close my eyes, I can't see none
Don't ask God, "Why?" For none
We on this road, it's designed to run

Genius Annotation

This track’s title, “11.11”, is a reference to the superstitious belief of making a wish at the time 11:11. This belief is stemmed from the number ‘1111’, said to give a sixth sense of positivity; being why some wish certain dreams at 11:11 in hopes that it’ll come to fruition.

It is notable that Quavo’s fellow Migos member, Takeoff, was shot and killed on the first of November (11/1). It can be interpreted as one of Quavo’s signals to make Rocket Power both in tribute to Takeoff, along with respect for himself. By the end of the track, however, it is clear that even though the loss of Takeoff still pains Quavo, he uses the sign ‘1111’ to see the road paved for his destiny.

On November 11, 2022 (11/11), a memorial service was held in honor of Takeoff, celebrating his life and his career accomplishments. The memorial was held in State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia and tickets for the event sold out quickly. This track was also recorded on this day as well, Quavo noted in his YouTube interview, ‘A Conversation For The Fans.’.
