LIGHT
[Hook]
I’m just tryna glow
They was tryna dim my light
So I had to to let em go
I’m not the one to play games with
Just to let you know
And I’ma make it happen
And I put that on my soul
Put that on my soul
Yeah yeah yeah

[Verse 1]
I been the man since the age of 9
And been a man since the age of 5
Remember momma screaming and crying
She on the phone, her sister said
Her brother died
That very moment I knew
That I had to go for mine
And ain’t nobody finna stop my shine
Take a look up at the clock
I think it’s bout that time
A decade and a year straight
I been on my grind
Putting pen to the paper
Tryna speak life through these lines
Know one day we gon be fine

[Hook]
I’m just tryna glow
They was tryna dim my light
So I had to to let em go
I’m not the one to play games with
Just to let you know
And I’ma make it happen
And I put that on my soul
Put that on my soul
Yeah yeah yeah
[Verse 2]
I stay away from the bottle
Cuz I seen people turn hollow
They drown they self in that liquor
Just tryna swim from they problems
The surest way to destruction
Is just repeating the cycle
I’d made a vow that I’d break it
I put my hand on the bible
Wanna keep me a n***a
They wanna keep me a victim
They wanna see us in bondage
They wanna keep us in prison
Wanna keep all my freedom
They wanna blurry my vision
But I refuse to get got
So I keep that shit out my system

[Hook]
I’m just tryna glow
They was tryna dim my light
So I had to to let em go
I’m not the one to play games with
Just to let you know
And I’ma make it happen
And I put that on my soul
Put that on my soul
Yeah yeah yeah
