Tarik Mishlawi describes in this song how it is to be in a club and that there are ups and downs in a love life (with own experience) such as long-distance relationship. In addition, he says he signed with Bridgetown Records, his new label.
[Letra de "All Night"]
[Intro]
B-Town, Big M
[Chorus]
I was from the city, she was from the outside
I was from the North, she was from the South Side
I looked in the mirror, I said: "Man, I'm alright"
Little did I know I'd be crying all night
'Cause I was from the city, she was from the outside
I was from the North, she was from the South Side
I looked in the mirror, I said: "Man, I'm alright"
Little did I know I'd be crying all night
'Cause I was from the city
[Verse 1]
Tip that glass, spark that 'dro
Shake that ass, move that dope
Rappers sound like Dr. Seuss, but not as dope
Clench your teeth and bite my flow
These folk is bogus, y'all go home (Hahah)
Therapist said I should focus
I had reached the lowest lows
Hurt my sikee, y'all should know this
Do you care? You probably don't
Confidence had lowered to degree
I thought would never show
(And what you got?)
Got a couple months to get my act together
Get this shit up off my shoulders
I swear it's a heavy load
[Chorus]
I was from the city, she was from the outside
I was from the North, she was from the South Side
I looked in the mirror, I said: "Man, I'm alright"
Little did I know I'd be crying all night
'Cause I was from the city, she was from the outside
I was from the North, she was from the South Side
I looked in the mirror, I said: "Man, I'm alright"
Little did I know I'd be crying all night
'Cause I was from the city
[Verse 2]
Hunnid band, hunnid band, hunnid band
B-Town be tired of counting them hunnids
Ain't no opponent, now where is the fun at?
No competition, the game, oh, we own that
I been to places and I'm in the zone at 351
Had been waiting for dope rap and I'm here now
Yeah, I been killing shit since '96
Make legend rappers my sidekicks
Tell record labels no mind tricks
I got co-signs, a whole line of it, let's get it
[Chorus]
I was from the city, she was from the outside
I was from the North, she was from the South Side
I looked in the mirror, I said: "Man, I'm alright"
Little did I know I'd be crying all night
'Cause I was from the city, she was from the outside
I was from the North, she was from the South Side
I looked in the mirror, I said: "Man, I'm alright"
Little did I know I'd be crying all night
'Cause I was from the city, she was from the outside
I was from the North, she was from the South Side
I looked in the mirror, I said: "Man, I'm alright"
Little did I know I'd be crying all night
'Cause I was from the city, she was from the outside
I was from the North, she was from the South Side
I looked in the mirror, I said: "Man, I'm alright"
Little did I know I'd be crying all night

In a interview to Rui Unas’s Maluco Beleza mishlawi talked about the creation process of this song:
This song was not calculated and not planned. I was in the studio and I made the song in 2 hours. It was certainly the fastest song that I made. And I think that sometimes is that way that the music...
Mishlawi explained it on the Maluco Beleza interview:
A model from Russia posted a video, in 2016, where she was in the car with her husband and they were singing the song.
[…] And it was like a snowball effect.
The video was posted in her Instagram and gained a lot of traction to the song.
