The lights start going out

The street lights

Along the streets start going out

One at a time like

In a.

In a, in a row

Poof, poof, poof

We just looked at each other

Wow did we do this?

I mean because we were jacked up to a street lamp

You know what I mean

I was home, sitting here

Watching television

Bingo

All the lights go off

The television goes off

I go up to the roof

Look out

DARKNESS!

I’m twelve years old

I’m watching, Bewitched on television

And 'boom' the lights go out

I thought it was just us

Cause that’s a common occurrence

I looked outside, and

Everything was black

Everything is black now

In the streets these people ain’t know how to act now (nope)

Politicians just puppeteers in the background

Messin' with my mental while I’m stuck up in this trap house (darkness)

That’s what I’m looking through

Try to resist it’s impossible not to give into

The system failed me, I guess I failed the system too

Cause now I’m forced to sell dope cause I ain’t got creations dude

It’s Fucked right?

Up nice

Wondering what it’s once like

Stuck fighting with them same demons that I got tucked tight

Right behind my earlobe

Gun under my pillow

Cause I got all these dream that I’d either die or that I’d kill for

Demons and angles

Making me feel unstable

I prey though, my sons will never have to sling that yay-yo

Like they father did, put a couple whips up in their momma’s crib

Make a couple mil and blow the game up like apollo did

Honestly, we did it to ourselves that ain’t that hard to see

Take a step back and you can see it with some clarity

It’s obvious, these politicians complicate the populist

And now I’m feeling haunted like I just brought home the oculus

Compassions really just a myth, darkness got us all confused

Now the smallest sliver of light is all we got in view

Compassions really just a myth, darkness got us all confused

And now the smallest sliver of light is all we got in view

Hold up

I say hold up

Don’t let this thing control us

Open up your eyes, it’s more to life than what they show us

I say hold up

I say hold up

Don’t let this thing control us

Open up your eyes, it’s more to life than what they show us

Who turned out the light

Whats left that is right

Who’s making the game so damn hard for us

Who’s making the game so

Who turned out the light

Whats left that is right

Who’s making the game so damn hard for us

Who’s making the game so

Who turned out the light

Whats left that is right

Who’s making the game so damn hard for us

Who’s making the game so

Who turned out the light

Whats left that is right

Who’s making the game so damn hard for us

Who’s making the game so

Darkness

Everything was black
