lirik lagu akintoye - light show
[verse 1]
potential perspectives shifting
half of it predetermined
the rest of it left to pigment
heaving these hooks in the ocean
hope the intent of fishing
reeling in realism cut the lights where potential missing
sneaking to see the homies
let evil agenda slip in
they wanna go catch em slipping
before they get shipped to prison
i try to be level headed
cool when the drama set in
the search for belonging could be my ending if imma let it
stuck in the middle seat
big homies belittled me
know they need me for purpose
and so they play me like middle c
provoke em on purpose
push every visible b~tton
until he pressurized
we pr~ne to pettiness
it ain’t no differences to set aside
a brief exchange of fated collisions before they let it fly
when you escape from death too many times
you think you’ll never die
if god was really watching all his work
and sees impurities through better eyes
he wrong for leaving black boys weaponized
[hook]
vision activated when the sun down
dancing with the demons to the night glow
beating on the window like a drum line
faces congregating when my eyes close
i been out here waiting for the right time
ain’t no gpsing where we might go
king of diamonds waiting for the light shine
i been getting ready for the light show
[verse 2]
potential perspectives shifting
half of it predetermined
the rest of it left to pigment
choking the truer me
suit and tie never suited me
did my schooling in private
and publicly they abusing me
we wear uniformity to display opportunity
but the truth is we foolishly idolize who we fooling
see
i sit and reminisce on all the places i used to be
tryna see if my youth could be
enough for a eulogy
i search for ~n~logies
to covey commonality
put my pain into metaphors
with the hope they gon get me more
i search for understanding
open handed
my shoulders sore
tryna play the game
be hard as f~ck when you know the score
according to normal
i’m down and out
and the clock is ending
they struggle with comprehending
the premise of not pretending
perpetuate propaganda
presumptions of people who falling victim to systems that take away
and they never can see the difference
they incentivize
stir the hate to energize
praise for those who memorize
and squeeze enough to televise
feed your fear of falling
so you never rise
degrees of separation
can’t maintain in education
then you ill advised
f~ck a politician
b~tch they only serve to minimize
feed the people silly lies
to keep the peace in city lines
i see inside
if god was really watching all his work
and sees impurities through better eyes
he wrong for leaving black boys weaponized
[hook]
vision activated when the sun down
dancing with the demons to the night glow
beating on the window like a drum line
faces congregating when my eyes close
i been out here waiting for the right time
ain’t no gpsing where we might go
king of diamonds waiting for the light shine
i been getting ready for the light show
