M-Phazes - Cigarettes lyrics

[Verse 1: Illy] He draws out, the cigarette smoke trail spins Thoughts crowd the room till' it's only him He feels it, lives for it, spent half a life pushing it forward What he wouldn't give for it Saw naysayers put in their places Feels like he's scaling foothills to greatness Holding all four aces, he braced for the next few years being some for the ages No time to heed, pride comes before the fall For now he shines. all rose, no thorn Full bloom like his plans fool proof High noon, sun beaming, spoke too soon The dark clouds scream towards his door And a house of cards can't stand in a storm Wind picked up, sunshine stopped The world came down with the very first drop [Hook: Hue Blanes] So light me up like a cigarette and just let me burn Catch fire and burn, catch fire and burn Light a spark and ignite it In the dark, so when I'm no more They'll know I was here, so let me just burn [Verse 2: Illy] He still gunning, beaten but refused to be broken What some call delusional What others call focus man He's focused, came back for the re up Now's not the time to kick back with his feet up Stands in the rain with his face to the heavens and his arms outstretched from the pain that he let in World keep kickin' hard, ain't gonna get him He's willin to fight and die for the path that he heads in And that's a bittersweet faith Knowin' highs and lows will come boy but them's the breaks It's pride it's madness, it's seein' what others can only imagine and then reachin' out to grab it And sayin "I can say whatever comes hapens But I follow my heart goddamn it" Exposing reality to magic It's hope, that's all it is He walked through fire, Its all he came back with, saying [Hook: Hue Blanes] So light me up like a cigarette and just let me burn Catch fire and burn, catch fire and burn Light a spark and ignite it In the dark, so when I'm no more They'll know I was here, so let me just burn [Verse 3: Illy] Come what may some memories fade But some stay as vivid as the moment they were made Dreams of the days where he stood like a mountain It's been a while since then but who's countin'? He lies awake, lies in wait For the light of the mornin' to bless him and shine again Summon the rise of the fallen Laces tied, comeback trail still walkin' Lives for it, lifetime on a mish for it man There ain't thing he didn't give for it Make a bet til' his last sun sets He'll be pushin' for the light mate he ain't done yet Head held high slow danced through his hell Still a point there gotta prove to himself And, the beat drops same songs on next So he sparks up a cigarette takes a deep breath and says [Hook: Hue Blanes] So light me up like a cigarette and just let me burn Catch fire and burn, catch fire and burn Light a spark and ignite it In the dark, so when I'm no more They'll know I was here, so let me just burn So light me up like a cigarette and just let me burn Catch fire and burn, catch fire and burn Strike a spark and ignite it In the dark, so when I'm no more They'll know I was here, so let me just burn Let me burn Let me burn
