Blue Lights - Jorja Smith

I wanna turn those blue lights into strobe lights

Not blue flashing lights, maybe fairy lights

Those blue lights into strobe lights

Maybe even fairy lights, not blue flashing lights

Don’t you run when you hear the sirens coming

When you hear the sirens coming

You better not run 'cause the sirens not coming for you

What have you done?

You went to school that day

Was a bit late but it was a Monday

Kept after class for answering back

You apologized, ain’t no harm in that

I wanna turn those blue lights

What have you done

Into strobe lights

There’s no need to run

Not blue flashing lights

If you’ve done nothing wrong

Maybe fairy lights

Blue lights should just pass you by

Gun crime into your right ear

Drugs and violence into your left

Default white headphones flooding the auditory

Subconscious waves you accept

You’re sitting on the 4 back home

«Where you at, G?

Answer your phone!»

Pause the poison to answer his message

Your boy sounds rushed, fears for his adolescence

I wanna turn those blue lights

What have you done

Into strobe lights

There’s no need to run

Not blue flashing lights

If you’ve done nothing wrong

Maybe fairy lights

Blue lights should just pass you by

Tall black shadow as you’re getting off the bus

Shadow shows no emotion so what’s even the fuss?

But the face of your boy casts a darker picture

Of the red handed act, he’s gonna whisper;

«Look blud I’m sorry 'cause I know you got my back

He was running, I couldn’t think, I had to get out of that»

Not long ago you were miming to the «Shook Ones»

Now this really is part two 'cause you’re the shook one

Hands you the tool as you question your friendship

How’s man like you gonna make me a convict?

Level of a felon when I’ve done nothing wrong

Blood on my hands but I don’t know where it’s from, oh

You got blood on your hands but you don’t know where it’s from

You better run when you hear the sirens coming

When you hear the sirens coming

Better run when you hear the sirens coming

'Cause they will be coming for you

Run when you hear the sirens coming

Better run when you hear the sirens coming

When you hear the sirens coming

The blue lights are coming for you

I wanna turn those blue lights

What have you done

Into strobe lights

There’s no need to run

Not blue flashing lights

If you’ve done nothing wrong

Maybe fairy lights

Blue lights should just pass you by

«Blud, when you hear the sirens coming»

Don’t you run when you hear the sirens coming

«Blud, when you hear the sirens coming»

Don’t you run when you hear the sirens coming

What have you d-d-d-done done

Don’t you run

Don’t you run

Don’t you run when you hear the sirens coming
