The Light |
Oh, it’s a gnat in here |
Get out of here, gnat |
You got something to tell me, gnat? |
You got something you want to tell me, gnat? |
Huh? |
Alright |
Cuff my nuts, place myself on house arrest |
Locked in, judge, jury, bailiff, bet |
When it rains, I’m dry, sun shines, I’m wet |
Push up demons, fuck it, doin' 'bout 50, 11 sets |
Ignoring your texts like sweet babies who cry in the church |
Or if your partner got popped yesterday and school come first |
My favorite color’s yellow, maybe 'cause I’m mellow |
And I got so much style, it’s probably 'cause I’m ghetto |
My mommy never cooked a Cosby dinner |
And often times I took a L for Mrs. Winters |
But I’m getting off the subject |
Off the boat, got my luggage but the quote |
Pack light starts to echo through my mind |
So I’m rushing now, hushing now |
Laid my suitcase down like prom night |
Zipped it open started pulling out |
Tossin' memories, socks, thoughts who pretend to be |
Boxer briefs, pants, pictures of frenemies killing me |
To make room, room, room, for the light |
Lately I been sober, chasin' new highs |
Cut the cord to my bungee |
You can be yourself, don’t be shy |
Take your time, don’t you rush things |
Thought I bought a Rollie, but forget that, I didn’t need it |
Just let that holy water wash over my Caesar dressing |
Like that Thursday in November, know that they’ll remember style |
Boil it then let it simmer down, we blowing smoke between the breeze |
The twists are Senegalese |
No more Backwoods blown, we ride the rings of memories |
We wired the intricacies of our logic, no hands in my pocket |
Still got my hand on my weapon |
He more Malcolm than Martin, a bit more Baldwin than both |
You need a cauldron for mixing a black man’s soul into soup |
So many fishbowls can’t cope, you cracking jokes 'bout the soap |
We more concerned with the truth |
You niggas burning the booth, these niggas burning the wick at both ends |
Fade to black I’m ghosting in the light |
Lately I been waking up at night, tryna to beat the day |
Overconfident, I can’t be Issa Rae |
To make room, room, room, for the light |
Lately I been sober, chasin' new highs |
Cut the cord to my bungee |
You can be yourself, don’t be shy (Yeah) |
Take your time, don’t you rush things |
I know what I know, but you heard what you heard |
So you poked your head in, got suspicion confirmed |
Been on my feet for miles, so my soul got some burn |
Still it’s fuck how you feel on my bottle of pills |
If you can’t hold me down then you don’t get a turn |
Yeah, yeah, fame is less worse, nothing sacred no more |
Either take what you want or you make what you earn |
If I kill you, I promise, I’ll pray for you first, like |
Ooh-ooh (Hallelujah, Hallelujah) |
If you love me, grease my scalp with this 380 in my lap, like |
Ooh, yeah |
To make room, room, room, for the light (What's the worst thing that could |
happen? |
Use the answer to relapse) |
Lately I been sober, chasin' new highs |
Cut the cord to my bungee |
You can be yourself, don’t be shy (Yeah) |
Take your time, don’t you rush things |
