Lights (feat. Ellie Goulding)

Ellie Goulding:

And I'm not sleeping now, the dark is too hard to beat

And I'm not keeping now, the strength I need to push me

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone

You shine it when I'm alone

And so I tell myself that I'll be strong

And dreaming when they're gone

Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home

Calling, calling, calling home

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone

You shine it when I'm alone

Yonas:

Yo, yo this my life, this my life

Ain't no cameras, ain't no mics

And I'm coming from the dark side

But still my mind extremely bright

Call me Edison the way I'm illuminating what I write

Through my audio I help all my audiences see the light

I’m that bridge, I’m that bridge

If you think there’s still a gap

Between that hardcore EDM

And this hip-hop thing called rap

I'm just trying to live my dream

They try to give me nightmares

I'm ahead of my time, hmm I would say about light-years

Try to measure my volts

Try to measure my watts

Try to measure my plan

But you'll never mess with my plot

And the courtesy's all mine, 45s and red wine

Put your chair back and recline

And unwind, it's time

Lights

Yonas:

Uh, yeah I shine, yeah I shine

Cause I got God in my life

But I'm feeling like a target sniper's got me right in their sight

And I lost my girlfriend, now my life is in a whirlwind

So I'm humble on the outside but I'm crumbling within

I've been feeling like these lights

Are symbolizing my fate

If I'm supposed to meet my Maker then just tell him I'm a be late

Cause I got things I wanna do on Earth

Money-wise I wanna prove my worth

Did you get the news alert?

I'm the executioner, I'm new to the Universe

Try to measure my volts

Try to measure my watts

Try to measure my plan

But you'll never mess with my plot

And the courtesy's all mine, 45s and red wine

Put your chair back and recline

And unwind, it's time
