light up - wyte knight lyrics
{intro}
it was all
it was all
just a dream
just a dream
it was all
it was all
just for me
light it up
{hook}
it was all
just a dream
trying to be everything
it was all just for me
that i’m not
hit the lights
let them see all of me
let the world see
all of me (all of me)
light it up
light it up oh
{verse 1}
i’m a product of my environment
i was told that i was gonna make it
but ended up trying to eat (gota eat)
the same people that new me
since i was little
telling me they liked me
and i was a good kid
until i turned 18
they told me the truth
cuz i wanna smoke
cuz i dropped out at 17
but these the same people
that dropped out
got 3 kids
and smoke a whole pound everyday
theres one thing to wish better for someone
then theres another to be a hypocrite
i just gota smoke just to keep myself from cutting
i got my job watching
if i slip i can’t count no chicken
i’m not a addict
i did everything i wasn’t suppose to do
where i was and still alone
where were these people
a quick conversation
is not the same as a talk
i’m blessed for my uncle
hes done more for me
than the whole community
thats just the way the world works
go through your own shit
expect no one to care
you got to battle through it mentally
f-ck these people thinking i’m crazy
{hook}
it was all
just a dream
trying to be everything
it was all just for me
that i’m not
hit the lights
let them see all of me
let the world see
all of me (all of me)
light it up
light it up oh
{verse 2}
got my mom mad at me for smoking
but where were you
when i was har-ssed in school
to the point where i almost took my life
i know i’m a bad role model
i can’t bare to think of a kid
looking up to me
i’d tell’em don’t be me
i will steer you down the wrong path
can’t blame any mother
that doesn’t want me anywhere near them
thats a smarter choice
would you allow your children around
a high school dropout with colored hair
i walk around and its like i’m a monster
i gota smoke to get the pressure off
i don’t want to think about it
especially with my siblings
don’t wanna see them
know about their brother
being this creature to a lot of people
not knowing the real me
image is everything to people
beyond the cuts and scars
pain with no help
that i don’t wanna spread
once your depressed
i feel more sad looking at me
said from friends
that didn’t care and still don’t care
until i’m dead and gone
a kid sees that and i hope they laugh not to become me
time to light one for the thoughts inspiring this shit
{hook}
it was all
just a dream
trying to be everything
it was all just for me
that i’m not
hit the lights
let them see all of me
let the world see
all of me (all of me)
light it up
light it up oh
verse 3:
even for all the trouble
i got a picture of my sister
and i use that shit as motivation
i got a thought of my brother
and i use that shit as heart warming
i dropped out of school
and i use that shit as education
the world has failed me in my mind
and in reality i failed everyone
its no wonder i can’t sleep
i don’t want to be a role model
but i think down on the less fortunate kids
like the adults around me
i keep forgetting that i’m 18
whos really a role model
i don’t care to think about it
i think about the money
money is the route to happiness to me
while i know my own personally is a sin
i gladly wear the unholy side to me
cuz i got no holy side
these kids shouldn’t take advice
from someone like me
where we’re always negative
talking about problems in hope for acceptance
for this new generation
man i just need a smoke
i need to concentrate
on making money
to buy things for my siblings
to show my love in a way
{hook}
it was all
just a dream
trying to be everything
it was all just for me
that i’m not
hit the lights
let them see all of me
let the world see
all of me (all of me)
light it up
light it up oh
