Jill Scott - The Light [Piano Mix] lyrics

I was rollin' down the way, and I saw this girl About twelve years old, in a grown up world She liked fancy cars, fancy rings She wanted the life that only money could bring I could tell that she, by the look in her eyes Would do anything, to get that life Didn't talk down to her, didn't make her cry But I said a few words that could change her life (When it comes) I say, I say (The light, the light) (Don't front on it) Don't front on it (The light, the light) (When it comes) When it comes, when it comes (The light, the light, don't run from it The light, the light) Hey I was sittin' here trippin', 'bout half of the night 'Cause the song that I was working on was bringing me strife Don't wanna give up, 'cause it's just that nice Let me stop tryna force the issue I been getting all the right lines But I ain't been paying attention Must be trippin' off of what them Records executives mention Want me to be what they want me to be But that ain't really my vision I'm scorching hot like fire So let me stop all this trippin' Forgin' to my own funky fantastic dimension Let me do what a sister like me do And put some funk in the kitchen Let me stop all this trippin' and listen [Repeat: x2] When it comes the light, the light Don't front on it the light, the light When it comes the light, the light, don't run from it The light, the light
