Stay Lit Songtext
von Mike Teezy

Stay lit! (lights on, lights on, light on)

Why you tryna burn me out
Why you tryna turn me down
Why you tryna block my light
They don′t wanna see me shine
But I gotta stay lit
I gotta stay lit
Why you tryna burn me out
Why you tryna turn me down
Why you tryna block my light
They don't wanna see me shine
But I gotta stay lit
I gotta stay lit
Gotta stay lit
I gotta stay lit
Gotta stay lit
I gotta stay lit


This, little light mine I′ma let it shine
Way too bright I might hurt your eyes
Yeah I know you wanna block me cause I'm on my grind
But you can't touch this like it′s hammer time
Back back you don′t really want none
Light bright got me looking like the suns son
Christ died on the cross for my sins
And the sins that I did in the end, they were undone
Bounced back in three days, like where'd He come from
They looking at me crazy like I′m on something
They tried to block me, they never will stop me
I hope that you copy, I'm promising this...
I gotta stay lit

Why you tryna burn me out
Why you tryna turn me down
Why you tryna block my light
They don′t wanna see me shine
But I gotta stay lit
I gotta stay lit
Why you tryna burn me out
Why you tryna turn me down
Why you tryna block my light
They don't wanna see me shine
But I gotta stay lit
I gotta stay lit
Gotta stay lit
I gotta stay lit
Gotta stay lit
I gotta stay lit


Don′t you... let your... light... burn out
All around is darkness
Continue... to stand out
We are the light of the world
We gotta light up the world
I think I might say it again... we gotta light up the world
Ah yeah yeah yeah, We are the light of the world
If we are the light of the world
We gotta light up the world
If we are the light of the world
We gotta light up the world
We are the light of the world
We hold the light in us
Walk up in a dark room, bet I'm making it bright
Got the Billie Jean walk, where I step you see light
Gotta keep my armor on, cause I'm ready to fight
Never been one to worry, I′m not the panicking type
Yeah yeah, I know they wanna dim my light
Yeah yeah, but I gotta keep it bright
Don′t know about you, or what you gone do
But I got stay lit

Movie quote from 'Coach Carter′
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure
It is our light not our darkness, that most frightens us
Your playing small does not serve the world
There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so
That other people won't feel insecure around you
We were all meant to shine as children do
And as we let our own light shine
We unconsciously give other people permission to do the same
As we are liberated by our own fear;
Our presence automatically liberates others..."
So stay lit.
