Lasik - City of Light lyrics

[Verse 1] On a train catch me, writing to perfection All sounds right, when I start to hear neglection Stumbling blocks, you might call them Even though I walk, I fall, I'm never stalling Wanna talk to God about just all my problems Then I second guess myself, I wanna solve 'em All them, lies I told I'm so sorry Maybe it's the fact I'm bad because you caught 'em Baby, that's the past so look onward Fraid my time is up, you moved forward All those times I thought about calling Lost myself and now I'm straight balling Correcting myself, has become a new obsession All of my truths, and the rest of my confessions Train of mind got me hanging by the damn throat Devote, so I guess I'm writing down my last note [Hook] We in a city of light, still nothing ain't bright We fight to get out, surrounded by the night What's right we know, try with all our might In fright still we know in the line of sight [Verse 2] Look I seen good girls turn to dope, B Boys turn to crack Mothers turn the corner to the sh** and ain't no turning back And I been knee deep in it Had my partner get the feds on him, we keep sinning Keep spinning, keep cooking I don't mean based Free based, pre laced blunts to a fiends face But we straight cuz I won't ever sniff it Couldn't say the same for him, I couldn't take how he was living Couple weeks up in a clinic, that can't even rid it Put it on his plate he'd take a sniff and he was itching' You probably think you'll be a millionaire from pitching Risked it while his cousin spent decade in a prison, that ain't living So it's never going back now Don't wonder why I walk around with my hat down Cuz I won't never let it take my life So for now it's just me beneath the city lights [Hook] [Verse 3] Lack of visual empathy might just be the end of me Sending me back to the back, with my biggest enemy Is in front of me, or is it behind me At this point I'm so lost maybe it's inside of me Laying asleep, so dormant, feeling so cancerous Lie there till it rise and it starts to hit Gotta figure it out, what's about to come out Tryna break out, living in doubt And a shadow looking washed out Sitting at the side of the ring, I'm getting boxed out Getting locked out, no keys in a rap drought Tried to sneak in, got caught so I'm back out Black out, darker than a thousand midnights Cry out but it's only me in the dead night Wishing I could see the fame in the line of sight Wish that I was living in a place in the city of light
