Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear Louder, louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can't raise your voice to say I'll sing it one last time for you

Closing the eyes (bear witness to me) Freedom is all I have to say in defense Of what the world's becoming A nation hell bent on choosing what's right And how we all should live our lives Fuck their ways it is time to break free Fuck their hate

(Hands yeah yeah yeah) You say you're better with Come on lay your hands, your hands on me In the dark silence so loud You only gotta lay your hands on me We don't have to talk 'cause talk is cheap I've been thinking about it I've been thinking all night

I got a man that's always late Any time we have a date But I love him Yes I love him I'm gonna walk up to his gate See if we can't get this thing straight 'Cause I want him And I'm gonna have him Say is you is, or is you ain't my baby

Say it loud, say it clear You can listen as well as you hear It's too late when we die To admit we don't see eye to eye I just wish I could have told him in the living years Every generation Blames the one before And all of their frustrations Come

And have you back by tonight Well hey baby I was hoping Maybe you'd feel like taking a drive 'Cause I can take you on a trip to Heaven There's a place that they call Heaven Just south of town way up on a hill They say you can see for miles When the sun

I used to have so many friends Me and them went different ways Some man wanna drink and party Me and them got different aims And as soon as you cut man out People say that you changed Nothing changed here Same player, different game I've had people try

But it still kills me like it did before I've seen the end of the day come too soon It's nothing that I haven't seen before No it's nothing that I haven't seen before Not a lot to say, not a lot to do You played the game, you owe nothing to yourself Rest

The rhymes he say have no particular order Go 'head bite his rhymes if you think that you oughtta Hold your breath, MC's, my rhyme's underwater. We'd like to ask now that all passengers please hold Their breath, as we take you through an underwater hip

My love, she speaks like silence Without ideals or violence She doesn't have to say she's faithful Yet she's true like fire, like ice People carry roses Make promises by the hour My love she laughs like the flowers Valentines can't buy her In the dime
