[Verse 1]
Give me a moment to think, give me a moment to blink, give me a moment to get it all together
Livin' in a brand new world with a brand new way that the people think
And I can't get it done, no, I can't get numb
Feel like Rudi on the run from the Destrehan
Don't test me, man
I'm blessed to have a fam
But still a man with problems
And I can't solve 'em
Some days it feels like I'm not evolvin'
More like all of 'em
Fuck that, I'ma take 'em to another planе of existence
Off in thе distance, bumpin' Jay Dee and Nujabes
And nothin' else, I make this shit for the homies and myself
Why you think I made Paradise? I'm there at night
Livin' in the world, my pen write
Now give me the light
Now give me the light
Now give me the light
Now give me the light
[Bridge]
Give me the light, give me the light, give me the light
Give me the light, give me the light, give me the light
Give me the light, give me the light, give me the light
Give me the light, give me the light, give me, give me the light
Give me the light, give me the light, give me the light
Give me the light, give me the light, give me the light
Give me the light, give me, give me, give me, give me the light
Give me the light, light, give me the light
Give me the light, light, light, give me, give me
Give me, give me the light now, now
Give me, give me the light now, ah
Give me, give me the light right now
Give me the light, give me the light
Give me, give me, give me, give me the light
Give me, give me the light
Give me, give me the light
[Verse 2]
And we back at it again
People mad at it again
I'ma make it shatter again
Bringin' it in, follow the pen to the end
This is a random thought you think I know, but I—
Do not get it started
This is a world that I departed
Didn't want anything I brought it
Didn't want anything I had
Didn't want anything I gave
Had me feelin' like a slave
Like I shouldn't be so brave
Shit don't matter anyway
Whether you back or center stage
Boys and girls still on the stage
Givin' everything they got
Comin' on down, they shootin' they shot
The whole audience gon' hope you rot
Hope you burn when you make it on top
'Cause everybody got, everybody got
Everybody got, everybody got problems
Why you think we end up in asylums?
Everybody love an underdog 'til the underdog on top
Then they wanna see him drop
Put him behind bars and never free him
Tee him up for destruction
Like Doc D at the function
I don't know where I'm headin' but I'm at the junction
Losin' my mind, I follow the signs, I'm out here tryin'
I really mean it, I'm not lyin'
I want 'em to love me (I want 'em to love me)
I want 'em to love me (I want 'em to love me)
I want 'em to love me (I want them to love me)
I want them to love me (I want 'em to love me)
I want them to love me (I want 'em to love me)
I just want 'em to love me (Want 'em to love me, yeah)
I want you to fucking lo—
[Outro]
I really wanna get it, I wanna get it, I need it, I gotta have it, I really want 'em all to love me
And I really wanna get it, I gotta get it, I really wanna get it, I gotta get it, I want em all to love me, yeah
Want 'em all to love me
Give me, give me the light to shine, to shine, to shine, to shine
Give me, give me the light to shine, to shine, to shine, to shine
Give me, give me the light to shine, to shine, to shine, to shine
Give me, give me the light to shine
