Lights (DMTR)


Thursday Night Lights
J. Blaze
2014

Verse 1:

Who do you believe in

Money or God?

Story's always different

When there's money involved

A lot of things have changed

Since us people evolved

Our flat earth is where the universe

Used to revolve

We didn't use to have a church

Now, if you could recall

Back then things were different

You could resolve

All your problems with man

And your problems with God

Like I said, things are different

When there's money involved

Every dream is the same

Be it money or fame

Say it all from the chest

Like Blaze Daddy Kane

I ain't gotta get props

Just be glad that I came

Fuck money or my shot

I would rather get change

Is it money, is it God?

Would you rather explain?

Is it visible or not

In the tracks that I've slain?

Is it really in those verses

That those curses have stained?

This is proof that in this game

Few deserve to remain

 

Hook:

Lights, won't you take me away

Won't you take me back home

To the place where I stay

Take me somewhere I belong

I can't take all this pain

Every place is the same

Lights, take me home

Please take me

 

Verse 2:

Home

Where it wasn't like this

Where in my eyes

Real trouble didn't exist

Where we're told to do better

'stead of cease and desist

Where our preachers' only job

Is to teach and uplift

Where the good just gets better

Shit, what happened to that?

When it wasn't 'bout the records

Or the platinum plaques

We gotta do something

You can't just sit back and relax

It ain't just politics, I mean

Look what happened to rap

All your Grind Time Now 

Ain't outlasting the Smack 

My pen's poison like a fat dude

Holding a snack

You on check like a bad move

Holding you back

I ain't scared of no fronts

I'll one out you out back

You gotta join me, buck up

And make sure you Don't Flop

Ain't gotta be red hot

Just make sure you don't stop

You can still chase money

When you listen to God

And like I said, things are different

When there's money involved

 

Repeat hook
