Lights Down - 1982

Lights Down Lyrics

Statik Selektah & Termanology
Ima turn the bass up, you can turn the lights down
If you aint had enough, you gonn get it right
Get it right now, get it, get it right now
Ima turn the bass up, you can turn the lights down
If you aint had enough, you gonn get it right
If you aint had enough, you gonn get it right
Damn right Im from a city you aint never heard about
Wasnt making noise then but Im making noise now
Making dope shit, what Im all about
Im 93, fans like my shit loud
And I made my mama proud, turn the tv on wow
She just clicking through the channels while shes sitting on the couch
is, its time to celebrate now
You can tell the bartender we gonn need another round, its going down
In and out of labels all the time, had to change all my ideas,
Had to switch on my designs
Went from being major to the independent grind

When you come to think about it, man Im just fine
Cause Im that youtube and Im on that iPod
And that girl up in the front row screaming my god
my fans and all of my squad
You can call me what you want, call me an icon
Ima turn the bass up, you can turn the lights down
If you aint had enough, you gonn get it rightIf you aint had enough, you gonn get it right
If you aint had enough, you gonn get it right
Took a ride to NY, had a lot of time to think
5 people got stabbed, 2 murdered this week
In my hood, in my city, only 6 miles wide
Hurricane full of tears, filling buckets outside
Mama going in the shop, while she watch her son die
Police say another unsolved homicide
Damn kid, what a shame, when I think about the youth
Used to think about a play
Now I think about the booth
Just had another daughter, so now that makes 2
Gotta teach them be smart, do it thugs point of view
Gotta teach them bout respect, gotta teach them bout the rules
I aint talking on the neck but I gotta give them jewels
Looking back on my life, half way
I could say I was a leader, had a lot of shit to say
my inner demons, tryna make my plan straight
I just hold another jay and let the thoughts fade away
Ima turn the bass up, you can turn the lights down
If you aint had enough, you gonn get it right
Get it right now, get it, get it right now
Ima turn the bass up, you can turn the lights down
If you aint had enough, you gonn get it right
If you aint had enough, you gonn get it right.
