Lighters (feat. Bruno Mars & Royce Da 5'9)

This one's for you and me

Living out our dreams

We're all right where we should be

With my arms out wide

I open my eyes

And now

All I wanna see

Is a sky full of lighters

A sky full of lighters

By the time you hear this I will have already spiraled up

I would never do nothin' to let you cowards fuck my world up

If I was you I would duck or get struck like lighting

Fighters keep fighting, put your lighters up

Point 'em' skyward, uh!

Had a dream I was king

I woke up, still king

This rap game's nipple is mine for the milking

Till' nobody else even fucking feels me

Till' it kills me

I swear to God I'll be the fucking illest in the music

There is or there ever will be

Disagree? Feel free, but from now on I'm refusing to ever give up

Only thing I ever gave up's using

No more excuses

Excuse me if my head's too big for this building

And pardon me if I'm a cocky prick

But you cocks are slick

Poppin' shit on how you flipped ya life around, crock of shit

Who you dicks tryina kid?

Flipped dick, you did opposite

You stayed the same

'Cause cock backwards is still cock, you pricks

I love it when I tell'em shove it

Cause it wasn't that long ago when Marshall sat flustered

Lacked luster 'cause couldn't cut mustard

Muster up nothin', brain fuzzy

'Cause he's buzzin'

Woke up from that buzz, now you wonder

Why he does it? How he does it

Wasn't cause he had buzzards circlin' round his head

Waiting for him to drop dead, was it?

Or was it cause them bitches wrote him off

Little hussy-ass suzzes

Fuck it

Guess it doesn't matter now, does it?

What difference it make?

What's it take?

To get it through your thick skulls that this ain't some bullshit

People don't usually come back this way

From a place that was as dark as I was in

Just to get to this place

Now let these words be like a switch blade to a hater's rib cage

And let it be known that from this day forward

I wanna just say thanks

Cause your hate is what gave me the strength

So let 'em Bics raise

'Cause I came with 5'9''

But I feel like I'm 6'8''

This one's for you and me

Living out our dreams

We're all right where we should be

With my arms out wide

I open my eyes

And now

All I wanna see

Is a sky full of lighters

A sky full of lighters

By the time you hear this I prolly already be outtie

I advance like going from totin' iron to goin' and buying

Four or five of the homies the Iron Man Audi

My daddy told me, slow down boy you're going to blow it

And I ain't gotta stop to beat a minute to tell Shady I love him

The same way that he did Dr. Dre on the Chronic

Tell him how real he is

Or how high I am

Or how I would kill for him, for him to know it

I cried plenty tears

My daddy got a bad back

So it's only right that I write till he can march right

Into that post office and tell 'em to hang it up

Now his career's Lebron's jersey in twenty years

I'll stop when I'm at the very top

You shitted on me on your way up

It's 'bout to be a scary drop

Cause what goes up

Must come down

You goin' down

On somethin' you don't wanna see

Like a hairy box

Every hour

Happy hour now

Life is wacky now

Used to have to eat the cat to get the pussy

Now I'm just a cat's meow, ow

Outclass the count

Always down for the catchweight

Like Pacquiao

Y'all are doomed

I remember when T-Pain ain't wanna work with me

My car starts itself

Parks itself

And auto-tunes

Cause now I'm in the Aston

I went from having my city locked up

To getting treated like Kwame Kilpatrick

And now I'm fantastic

Compared to a weed high

And y'all niggas just gossipin' like bitches

On a radio and TV

See me, we fly

Y'all buggin out like Wendy Williams

Starin' at a bee-hive

And how real is that?

I remember signing my first deal

Now I'm the second best

I can deal with that

Now Bruno can show his ass

Without the MTV awards gag

You and I know what it's like

To be kicked down

Forced to fight

But tonight

We're alright

So hold up your lights

Let it shine

'Cause-

This one's for you and me

Living out our dreams

We're all right where we should be

With my arms out wide

I open my eyes

And now

All I wanna see

Is a sky full of lighters

A sky full of lighters
