Paul White - Street Lights lyrics

[Hook] I’m livin’ where I know it ain’t right In the city of no streetlights And when you can’t see but to fight Lost in the city of no street lights So dim up ahead, blind in the city of no streetlights That’s why we trapped in the dark Spark in a city of no streetlights [Verse 1] .5 rolled up in the Swisher How many b**hes wanna f** this n***a? Danny Brown the Hybrid, old toothless-a** n***a But the b**hes f**in’ with him ‘cause they know he got charisma Ride down Glenwood, brights on the headlights Can’t see sh** ‘cause there ain’t no f**in’ street lights Hook, roll, pa** – but they can’t flick, though So f**in’ dark, scary, might have pistols Dump on ‘em, disappear, nowhere to be found On the news, cops k**ed on the Westside of town It’s a war going on when the sun goes down So in the battlefield keep your hard hat on ‘Cause out there are savages, aiming at your cabbages Dunk in the wheelchairs, be considered radishes Mama told me be home ‘fore the streetlights on But nowadays they don’t work, so the kid’s never home And I’m gone… [Hook] [Verse 2] Like the sign that say beer and wine Gas station n***as get slumped pumping on 9 I’m trapped in the dark, how the f** am I supposed to shine? But it’s got to come to light, so I’m for sure gon’ get mine Got a heart full of grind, mind full of hustle They tried to keep the secret, but now it’s out in the public These other rappers jealous, don’t respond to BBMs I’m too busy doing d**, shining harder than them They wanna throw shade, stupid sh** played Smart n***a answer questions, there ain’t no nick, make the grade My younger days, used to be a rascal, arcade Caught the bus downtown before night was today ‘Cause I knew a n***a might try to try me for my Jordans No holdin’ nothin’, n***a, just focus on importance Mama told me be home ‘fore the streetlights on But nowadays they don’t work, so the kid’s never home And I’m gone… [Hook]
