Cornell Younge - Limelights lyrics

[Verse] Limelights I've been working for like 5 nights straight Haven't slept yet but I've got less debt So it's alright, yeah, it's alright Tell me what your spots like Where you live because you belong in the spotlight Where've you've been because you've got me kind've shocked right now I hope you're not on lock right now This here? This is my city I plan to raise all of my kids here This is where we eat, I've got a dish here And you know one day that I hope to be a king here So I know we have our problems But that's not enough for me to run away, no And you notice I just stop when you decide to bring up all the other things I could've been, don't [Bridge] k** 'em softly Get 'em off me I don't like a b**h if she don't call me If she waits and says the effort is all me When it rains, the weather's on me Try not to get attached but the tethers on me So you know when we snap only one of us is mad that the other got free Girl how am I supposed to work like that? One of us is going to get hurt like that I chose you but I'll take the world right back Right back [Verse] You knew I'd ask You choose his a** And you just laugh That's some cold sh** Baby-girl on some "knock a motherf**er of his thrown sh**" Then show it to your friends like a token The day it got old and the day I lost focus The day it got sold, tell me where the f** your soul is? Uh, girl I don't got time to complain I've got all these goals with no time to frustrate You've got all these roles I can't tell which one's fake It might work out with one face bu*tercup, bu*tercup, what the f**'s up? I don't really give a f** if love's just But if it's just us then I need some trust This weed f**s up me when I'm love struck [Outro] These are just moments in time I just see you as a moment in time I couldn't leave you before you were mine Now that I've got you I know that I lied To myself about it This time is waste let's wrap a belt around it Cornell
