City Lights feat. Pase Rock,Substantial

歌詞

Always in trouble need love on the double spent cake And a lifetime climbing to the level Contract with the devil loopholed expiration date On the side of good people always set the record straight Round and round the piano keys meditate Felt in the music need it now can't let it wait It's not a secret everything is all out and exposed It's going down like the water in the river flows So it goes another day another story told Stuck inside the puzzle searching still trying to get a hold Forgotten souls got lost in the cold trying To get freedom now they need 'emwalking down to hope road They said they hope so but it was a no go Front row stage show well placed logo Fancy lights and the cameras are on But he don't care he's just there to sing another sad love song Fade to black the soundtrack to another night It's the music of the rain and the city lights Feel no pain it makes the whole city bright Without the sparkle or hype it's just another night Fade to black the soundtrack to another night It's the music of the rain and the city lights Feel no pain it makes the whole city bright Without the sparkle or hype it's just another night And they all knew what it was from the first glance No excuses should've planned in advance man Documented on ProTools or Tascam Struggles & hustles of an ordinary black man Spin a record with two week life span Can't find a good girl so we hug the mic stand Not a lot of paper left in his right hand Making enemies of folks he treated like fam Stone cold, solid rock every point stop What you lean on soon as the pressure drops Ghetto hot, know the ledge and you'll hear the shot But he'll never stop 'til his name's known on every block Spread my wings fly away to the night beat He's wide awake while the rest of the city sleeps In these gritty streets, dudes creep with plenty heat Pay it no mind and we grind losing plenty sleep Yo, yo Some play for keeps while you laid asleep In the dark your worst nightmare waits for he Anything discern, no dawn or despair Air's crisp and calm I think a storm is near And I'm watching lightning dance across the skyline Usually miss it, rarely find time To bask in blackness, hint of line shine But in a jazz pub chilling, sippin' with fine wine Hypnotize by the strum of the upright Feel like lost souls got their eyes on me some nights So keep my eyes wide and move cautious Slip and find yourself in a brand new coffin By morning, now you're the one with the night breed You should've known better if you're anything like me But the city lights will seduce you Daywalkers beware if it's not what you're used to
