LIGHTS OUT Lyrics by BIA & JID
[Chorus: BIA]
When the light's out
Still can see me shining, I'm a lighthouse
Lights out, Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
When it's dark out
I'll show you the way 'cause I'm a lighthouse
Lights out, Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
[Verse 1: BIA]
Uh, I'm as ready as I'll ever be
Doing things that better me
How you supposed to make it out the block if you don't ever leave?
How you supposed to make it out the job if you don't ever see big?
Picture all those wolves out hеre made of sheep skin
Picture all my еnemies tryna be friends
Picture me tryna lead than follow these trends
Pen in hand, but the words from my soul
First rap bitch you know that went back and forth with Cole
They abusing trust, almost through with love
Take my cue to go, I'm moving up
Wasn't due to luck, this was really owed
I know you from, elementary, really, no we don't
Lights was out in my mama house, but we used the stove
French tips to my toes, down to the cuticle
Life's hard, but its beautiful
I been letting go of people I done made excuses for
I'm just human though, I think I need more light than usual
[Chorus: BIA]
When the light's out
Still can see me shining, I'm a lighthouse
Lights out, Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
When it's dark out
I'll show you the way 'cause I'm a lighthouse
Lights out, Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Lights out
[Post-Chorus: BIA]
Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm
Lights out
[Verse 2: JID]
I got my top way back and my beat down low
We put so much in the grind 'cause we was on the ground floor
Got a foot inside the game, so now, we kicking down the door
Niggas be clowns, you can't come around no more
On this railroad smoking, but we ain't underground no more
Been tryna push the sound, you know, surround the whole globe
The dough was lost and found, you know, I figured out a way to dig it out
I seen the hate and I should slap the taste from out you niggas mouth
[Bridge: JID w/ BIA]
I've seen your light shine brighter than a pot of gold
But you gotta feel the rain to see the rainbows
Guided by guardian angels
Goblins, goons, Oh God, we in danger
Stars and the moon, I'm harvesting painful thoughts in my brain
I'm looking for a change, I need it right now
I dropped my anchor near a dock and found a lighthouse
I know it's dark, but you can see me
[Chorus: BIA]
When the light's out
Still can see me shining, I'm a lighthouse
Lights out, Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
When it's dark out
I'll show you the way 'cause I'm a lighthouse
Lights out, Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Lights out
[Post-Chorus: BIA]
Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm
Lights out
Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm
Lights out
