Light Up A Candle
It's been a long time running, a long time coming
A lot of nights sleepless but it ain't all for nothing
I just live for today, cause tomorrow's a gamble
Somebody lead me the way, and light up a candle
Somebody Light up a candle
Light up a candle
Somebody Light up a candle
Light up a candle
I told them Light up a candle
Light up a candle
Somebody lead me the way, and light up a candle

It just feels like I'm running with my eyes closed
Black lights black nights and black clothes
I've had dark minutes that's black times
Black hands on the clock gave me black eyes
I remember being lost never found
Running from a dark past in this dark town
And then I saw a light, had to run to it
But then I got close and somebody put a gun to it
I've been shot down and knocked down but every time I got back up
I've been dropped down and locked down but every I got unstuck
Now they walk around n talk about how they think it's just luck
So now I ride around with the top down just to say what's up
So now they want to notice me
I'll turn the lights out - shhh - watch them go to sleep
All I see is liars, a bunch of Pinocchio's
So lead me to the light in case you didn't know
(Chorus)

All these shady people try to steal my shine
They all fronting so that's why they get left behind
This is the path I choose, so I stick to it
Everybody want to push me down but I just push thru it
Influenced by success hated by defeat
Practice makes perfect until it's greatness I achieve
I saw people cheat and lie, so I'm reaching for the sky
Trying to ask somebody why, they're all coming for my shine
I guess it's cause I'm fly, and they all want a piece of that
It's like I'm running for my life and I don't dare take a second to look back
Try to hate on how I'm living, microscope every decision
Just to find a single flaw now that's hates definition
But in the midst of the pain, I still find my peace
It seems like my dreams are just outside my reach
Now I'm coming just for you, so you better watch your back
Light up a candle because the darkness hides the fact

(Chorus)

[ Hi-Rez ]

I'm uncomfortable in my skin and the situations I'm in
Trying to forget what happened to me so I'm smoking on that piff
Swimming in an ocean of regrets and lies, I'm getting high
Not really enjoying life, just smoking to pass the time
Come take a step in my mind, you'll end up hanging from ropes
Or wasting your time with hoes, or smoking that dope to cope
I'm packing venues for these shows, but still I'm losing all hope
And I'm trying to find, trying to find, trying to find where it go
I want a fucking brain transplant, the one I got is damaged
Got my city on my back, like a fucking hoes tramp stamp
Mo' fuckin' famine, dying of dehydration
Fuck being patient and waiting, I'm about to kill all these lame basic bitches
(Chorus)
