• City Lights (feat. Pase Rock & Substantial)

(Pase Rock)
Always in trouble
Need love on the double
Spent cake and a lifetime
Climbing to the level
Contract with the devil
Loopholed expiration date
On the side of good people
Always set the record straight

Round and round the piano keys meditate
Felt it in the music
Need it now, can’t let it wait
It’s not a secret, everything’s all out and exposed
It’s going down like the water in the river flows

That’s how it goes
Another day another story told
Stuck inside the puzzle searching
Still trying to get a hold

Forgotten souls, got lost in the cold
Trying to get to freedom
Now they need’em walking down to hope road

They said they hope so
But it was a no-go
Front row stage show
Well-placed logo
Fancy lights and the cameras are on
But no pay he’s just there to sing another sad love song

(Chorus:)
Fade to black
The soundtrack to another night
It’s the music of the rain and the city lights
Feel no pain
It makes the whole city bright
Without the sparkle or hype
It’s just another night

(Chorus repeat)

And they all knew what it was from the first glance
No excuses, should’ve planned in advance man

(Substantial)
Documented on ProTools or Tascam
Struggle and hustles of an ordinary black man

(Pase Rock)
Spin a record with a two week life span
Can’t find a good girl so he hugs the mic stand

(Substantial)
Not a lot of paper left in his right hand
Making enemies of folks he treated like fam

(Pase Rock)
Stone cold, solid rock at the point stop
What you lean on soon as the pressure drops

(Substantial)
Ghetto hot
Know the ledge for you get a shot
But he’ll never stop
Till his name is known on every block

(Pase Rock)
Spread my wings, fly away to the night beat
He’s wide awake while the rest of the city sleeps

(Substantial)
In these gritty streets, dudes creep with plenty heat
Pay it no mind and we grind losing plenty sleep

Yo, yo

Some play for keeps while you laid asleep
In the dark your worst nightmare waists with heat
And it ain’t the sun
Though dawn is near
Air’s crisp and calm
I think a storm is near

And I’m watching the lighting dance across the skyline
Usually miss it, rarely find time
To bask in blackness
Hint of lime shine
We’re in a jazz pub chillin’, sitting with fine wine
Hypnotized by the strum of the upright
Feel like lost souls got their eyes on me some nights
So keep my eyes wide and move cautious
Slip and find yourself in a brand new coffin by the morning

Now you’re one with the night breed
You should’ve known better if you’re anything like me
But the city lights will seduce you
Day-walkers beware if it’s not what you’re used to
