Seen the light

(Talking)

talk to me man

its been a struggle for me
wonderin y I cant get by wit my life
but now im free
and I done did some right nd wrong
but still I see the light
and done been around the sex and drugs
hustlin my mama aint raise no thug
and it took a lil see how real it could get
and how this life wasnt made for me cuz i
seen alotta bad things on my block
but I ain't wanna b a victim of a gun shot
I cant let nothin hold me down

see all the things ive heard bout
see all the things ive read about
I seen the light

its kinda hard for me
to stay away from all these girls
and the haters they dont like
that im fulfillin my dream
but im juss tryna do my thing
my nigga can I live my life
I got the world on my shoulders(shoulders)
nd im only gettin older (older)
but its like its gettin colder
I'm gon make it but
I cant take it sometime

I came a long way from my block
nd im grateful for everything I got
I didnt let nothing bring me down

see all the things I heard bout (ooh yea)
see all the things I read about
I seen the light

(rap)
Life is vivid but seen through the eyes of
a rightous spirit,
they try to show us the light but we don't
like to hear it,
mama told me I was bright but despite her lyrics,
a large heard across my sight I had to fight to clear it,
like a runner a couple of summers I often wondered if it
really was winter and that's when I heard the thunder,
a current was occurin it was stirrin up my hunger,
but I couldn't let the shit burry a nigga under,
use to cry hopin all of this would pass,
and then I learned to use my tears to water up the grass,
a part of my swagga but apparently I won,
I took my shades off and now I'm starin at the sun,
I'm seein the light I'm seein the light,
realizin that it's me in the light,
I read about it read about it now I know it
(after rap)

see all the things I heard bout
see all the things I read about
I seen the light

I coulda did wrong
I seen alotta people hustle
but I left them things alone
I almost lost my friend to the struggle
but I guess that made me strong(made me strong)
I seen a whole lotta drama
and it taught me how to fight
and I thank god for my mama
she showed me wat was right
I coulda been in the dark
but thank God for the light

I seen the light

see all the things I heard bout (all the things I heard about)
see all the things I read about (I read about it, I read about it)
I seen the light (I seen the light)
