Lyrics
I’m on stage I can see the lights
Look down at my hands I can see the mic
And the noise from the fans is so loud
But so silent when the times out
I just keep a bright smile
Maintain till it’s lights out for me
I pray for my people that are finished with their eyes now
And so keep it moving till it’s lights out for me
There’s no such thing as breathing for no purpose
We just hide in the vents and stay nervous
There’s a lord right above they can’t curse us
We just gotta step on ice and break the surface
My momma went through shit that gave me trauma
I took it like a man and I feel taller
I wish you could really feel my aura
My daddy’s brother died while he was dealing with my momma
Situation I was drinking in the corner
What kind of shit is that
I went through some depression with I could run it back
Looking at my body for a soul there’s none in that
Bearing my self it’s hard to find the fun in that
I’m on stage I can see the lights
Look down at my hands I can see the mic
And the noise from the fans is so loud
But so silent when the times out
I just keep a bright smile
Maintain till it’s lights out for me
I pray for my people that are finished with their eyes now
And so keep it moving till it’s lights out for me
Lights out for me
Lights out for me
I’m on stage I can see the lights
Look down at my hands I can see the mic
And the noise from the fans is so loud
But so silent when the times out
I just keep a bright smile
Maintain till it’s lights out for me
I pray for my people that are finished with their eyes now
And so keep it moving till it’s lights out for me
Looked at my poppa seen his hair has gone all white
I hugged him and kissed him like everything is alright
Pretended everything was cool I just can’t write
The feeling knowin' liqueur never made us more tight
I kept taking pills tryna make harder
Until I started having seizures after
Done some dumb shit that’s just for starter
Ended up in a mental home mazza
No TV no toilet in my room
High risk I was 19 I was doomed
I was young with dreams of a baller
Thought I was a goner
I’m on stage I can see the lights
Look down at my hands I can see the mic
And the noise from the fans is so loud
But so silent when the times out
I just keep a bright smile
Maintain till it’s lights out for me
I pray for my people that are finished with their eyes now
And so keep it moving till it’s lights out for me
Lights out for me
Lights out for me
I’m on stage I can see the lights
Look down at my hands I can see the mic
And the noise from the fans is so loud
But so silent when the times out
I just keep a bright smile
Maintain till it’s lights out for me
