see the light - chase allen lyrics

[chorus]
i hope one day
you see the light
shining truly like a diamond in the sky
i hope one day (one day)
you see the light (you see the light)
shining truly like a diamond in the sky

[verse 1]
bodies get buried in the soils of america
know what they say? they say, “the more,” they say, “the merria.”
my relatives corpse in egypt and in nigeria
africa breed kings like pit-bull terriers
the love of my life, mama be like “when you gon marry huh?”
“whatchu a cheater? who’s the chick? is her name erica?”
i told her, “hold the horses.” cause she wants rose and porsches
balconies with porches–she want the golden fortress
and she deserve it all because she works so hard
it’s cool to play the game, but you can’t control the ball
i got siblins. we ain’t spoke–ain’t got the nerve to call
they say i’m hollywood. now i dun heard it all
i used to hustle weed, my homies used to serve the raw
he was on house arrest. he had like thirty dogs
before them people came, and took him back to jail
where i wrote him letters. he got stacks of mail

[chorus]
i hope one day
you see the light
shining truly like a diamond in the sky
i hope one day (one day)
you see the light (you see the light)
shining truly like a diamond in the sky

[verse 2]
we went from living in the palace, drinking wine outta chalice
to callin the man “mastah” on plantations out in dallas
where did we go wrong? you see
they made us change our culture, raped out mothers and daughters
k!lled our fathers and dumped their bodies right inside the harbor
tell me, where did we go wrong?
it’s like the same old song, the game so wrong
nowadays people do anything for fame
made a mockery of our history and name
turn our backs on each other–man, it’s a shame
while we were singin, “we shall overcome,”
somebody black in mississippi was gettin hanged. f-ck that
it’s time to bust back, it’s time to get us back
they can keep they blond weaves and billies we don’t want that
it’s time for us to reach our fullest potential
cause we created the world and they don’t know what we been through. d-mn

[chorus]
i hope one day
you see the light
shining truly like a diamond in the sky
i hope one day (one day)
you see the light (you see the light)
shining truly like a diamond in the sky

i hope one day (sky)
you see the light (one day, you see the light)
shining truly like a diamond in the sky
i hope one day (sky)
you see the light (sky)
shining truly like a diamond in the sky. (sky)

[outro: ?]
[?] i can say loudly, again and again
without apology, without shame, without hesitation
[outro: chase allen & ?]
“this little light of mine–i’m going to let it shine
let it shine! let it shine! let it shine!”
[outro: ?]
thank you!
