Song lyrics
Uh-huh, is it time?
[Verse 1: Big Sean]
Look, I spent my whole life tryna improvise,
I'm not sayin' that shit for you to sympathize,
Spent my whole life tryna find the light that's at the end of the tunnel,
I should have realized it was inside.
So lately I been tryna get what's inside outside,
So many people wanna see my insides outside,
I'm from that city four hours east of Southside,
Where everyone outside, but don't fuck with no outsiders.
Goin' up with the ones I hold it down with,
Whole city got my back on some photobomb shit,
Whole city blowin' up on some old Saddam shit,
Before this I was the one hoes tried to go to prom with.
You know, take the fame, take the crib,
Take our cars, now we gotta take the train,
Hood niggas takin' chains, slave master take our names,
5-0 take the shot, and young souls take the blame,
Man, but they can't take away the light.
[Chorus: Jeremih & Big Sean]
No matter how much they gon' shade you,
No, man they can't fuck with the light,
They can't stop the shine,
They can't fuck with the light, hell nah, the boy's that bright.
Even if you take away my life, you can't take the light,
No matter how much they gon' shade you.
[Verse 2: Big Sean]
Got the whole city on fire,
Boy, this the flow that got Steph Curry inspired,
This the flow that got Lebron James finna rewire,
This the flow that got my whole family finna retire.
Flows on flows, I might drown in this bitch,
Ye found a pro, I guess I'm profound in this bitch.
My dad from Louisiana, man, the smallest town,
Where if they know you brown, they might hold you down,
And even hose you down, man!
Since I'm a son, I feel like I gotta stunt hard,
I took the hand that they gave me and played the Donald Trump card,
And realized countin' money never feel as good as countin' blessings
And a loaded mind is more dangerous than a loaded weapon.
So when they take the fame, take the crib,
Take our cars, now we gotta take the train,
Hood niggas takin' chains, slave master take our names,
5-0 take the shot and young souls take the blame,
Man, but they can't take away the light.
[Chorus: Jeremih & Big Sean]
No matter how much they gon' shade you,
No, man they can't fuck with the light,
They can't stop the shine,
They can't fuck with the light, hell nah, the boy's that bright.
Even if you take away my life, you can't take the light,
No matter how much they gon' shade you.
[Outro: Jeremih]
Don't let them take away your soul,
No, no!
Don't let them take away what makes you whole.
