I'm from a place bed riddled with crime

Lucky to be alive as I start to enter my  prime

Love and hate through battle the universal design

Will reduce the cattle don't let em enter your mind

Think for yourself let your rain be free

Get your third eye blind can't believe what you see

All in your ear tell you what you observe

Everything you see and hear make you part of the herd

Damn where hope go?

Battery in the red running so low

No army, everyone singing solo

Try to see the world through my eyes without GoPro

I'm just your local real that think global

Turn me up in the mix so I can be more vocal

Might give a spark to your soul

And my goal is to light up the dark, let's go

Light up the dark

Shine on, like you open up the blinds for em

Tryna open up the mind's on em (light up the dark)

Shed light on em, I ain't strong enough to fight for em

I've been waiting for the right moment

To light it up

Light it up (light up the dark)

Here to light up the dark

Whether or not we head right up the charts

Make every single word hit you right in the heart

When we come together for this night and embark

On a quest for growth and prosperity

Till it's all wavy like I'm part Cherokee

Difficult for all you know it's barbarity

Feeling like that's all you see when ya'll stare at me

We all got a choice when we fall terribly

Lift myself up and let the pallbearers carry me

Let em know they can't put a price on our clarity

No cost for this advice it's all charity

So put it right in your car

Check out the way we finish right where we start

On the darkest night of your light heal the star

And you can shine brighter than all

Light up the dark

Shine on, like you open up the blinds for em

Tryna open up the mind's on em (light up the dark)

Shed light on em, I ain't strong enough to fight for em

I've been waiting for the right moment (light up the dark)

To light it up

Light it up (light up the dark)

Here to spark the soul, till I light up the whole wide world

And they feeling it across the globe

I'd like to know that I'm not alone in this world

But I still can stand on my own

I've got to go even though I don't know where to start

Just shine baby light up the dark

Light up the dark

Light up the dark

Light up the dark

Shine on, like you open up the blinds for em

Tryna open up the mind's on em (light up the dark)

Shed light on em, I ain't strong enough to fight for em (light up the dark)

I've been waiting for the right moment (light up the dark)

To light it up

Light it up (light up the dark)

I know it gets hard but there's a silver spark

It's never the end until we depart

A moment of hope, a break in the mold

So light up the dark, light up the dark

I know it gets hard but there's a silver spark

It's never the end until we depart

A moment of hope, a break in the mold

So light up the dark, light up the dark
