Lyrics

Yeah
Red lights
yeah
There was no road so I made one
Been running red lights since day one
Went from wondering when will change come
Then I messed around and I changed some
Yeah no co-signs, no major features
All I seen was roadblocks and gatekeepers
Take a look around now the game need us
Stepped on stage and now they all believers
in all black from sneakers to the crown
No flash, just an unrivalled passion in my sound
From the corner of my eye caught the reaction of the crowd
Imma let it simmer down coz they gon’ need a minute now-
they tried to cuff me but my hands is untied
don’t need an entourage, I’m all your best combined
brought nothing but belief to a gunfight
And left with some vampires in the sunshine
Yeah red lights
Yeah I’m running red lights
Yeah red lights
Yeah I’m running red lights
Chasing green running red lights
Yeah chasing green running red lights
Yeah red lights
Red lights
Do you remember when we had to stay quiet?
Look down, keep our eyes silent
Ideas that we didn’t dare to dare to dream
‘til we high key had to tear the seams
Yeah the fabric of reality just wool over your eyes
They wanna gate keep, yeah they good at telling lies
white suits, yeah they’re fencing, they don’t see the therapy
we been dispensing, like what’s the impression?
it’s sickening, the pharmacy
but it’s fine with me, all the parts you see
cause it’s not for them, it’s for the gang
It’s for the little girl who didn’t know she could sing
it’s for the little boy with roadblocks as parents
Cause nobody that looks like him ever makes an appearance
This is sandpaper for our blisters, I know we been running
But we made it yeah we run it
Yeah red lights
Yeah I’m running red lights
Yeah red lights
Yeah I’m running red lights
Chasing green running red lights
Yeah chasing green running red lights
Yeah red lights
Red lights
Yeah
Hand on the wheel and I’m swerving
They never seen a rapper this good in a turban
Pick a lane, pick a vein, dope shit
So potent
Riding waves but I never been surfing
Fam no longer see my ideas as a burden
More like the future, check where we’re heading
Started out counting dreams and now I’m counting blessings
I’m running red lights
