Kenneth Gamble - Seen the Light lyrics

[Intro: Rico Love] Yo, uh, just feel real good right here man It's a good look, sugar bear, it's love Young Chris, Gucci what's up? From the streets of VA Talk to the whole world man, ghetto America, uh, talk to 'em man [Verse 1: Chris Brown] It's been a struggle for me, wondering why I can't get by with my life But now I'm free and I done did some right and wrong but still I seen the light And I done been around the s** and d**, hustling but mama ain't raise no thug And it took a little to see how real it could get and how this life wasn't meant for me cause I [Pre-Chorus: Chris Brown] Seen a lot of bad things on my block, but I ain't wanna be a victim of a gunshot I can't let nothing hold me down [Chorus] See all the things I heard about See all the things I've read about, I seen the light [Verse 2: Chris Brown] It's kinda hard for me, to stay away from all these girls and the haters they don't like That I'm fulfilling my dream, but I'm just tryna do my thing, my n***a can't I live my life? I got the world on my shoulders and I'm only getting older, but it's like I'm getting colder I'm gon' make it but I can't take it sometimes [Pre-Chorus: Chris Brown] I came a long way from my block and I'm grateful for everything I got I didn't let nothing bring me down [Chorus] See all the things I heard about See all the things I've read about, I seen the light [Bridge: Chris Brown] Wow, huh man after all this, who woulda thought? Little boy from Tappahannock, Virginia Y'all know what I'm saying? Would make it all the way to the top [Verse 3: Rico Love] Life is vivid but seen through the eyes of a righteous spirit They try to show us the light but we don't like to hear it Mama told me I was bright but despite her lyrics A large heard across my sight, I had to fight to clear it Like a runner a couple of summers, I often wondered if it Really was winter and that's when I heard the thunder A current was occurring, it was stirring up my hinger But I couldn't let the sh** bury a n***a under Used to cry hoping all of this would pa** And then I learned to use my tears to water up the gra** A part of my swag but apparently I won Cause I took my shades off and now I'm staring at the sun I'm seeing the light, I'm seeing the light Realising that it's me in the light I read about it, read about it Heard about it, now I know about it [Verse 4: Chris Brown] I could did wrong, I seen a lot of people hustle But I left them things alone I almost lost my friend to the struggle But I guess that made me strong, made me strong I seen a whole lot of drama and it taught me how to fight, taught me how to fight And I thank God for my mama, she showed me what was right I coulda been in the dark, but thank God for the light I seen the light, I seen the light [Chorus: Chris Brown] All the things I heard about, I read about it, I read about it oh I seen the light, I seen the light
