Jay Z - Light Up Lyrics

[Intro: Jamie Drastik & David Rush]
Uh-huh, yeah (light up)
Jamie Drastik, David Rush (light Up)
Oh, it's gonna move

[Verse 1: Jamie Drastik]
They tell me to not mention my wife or my kid in my interviews
It's image-driven and they wanna give a different view
I tell them go to hell, go and meet Satan
Something like that, I may be paraphrasing
They don't understand how much I am a soldier
Recording in the booth with my son up on my shoulder
Telling him to stay away from this money's older
Yeah, the war is cold, but the music biz is colder
I'm just trying to give them better hope
Fuck a chain, I'd rather see thеm with a stethoscope
The corniеst shit I did was start selling coke
Especially to my friends, what a fucking joke
I got glass on my knuckles for the bloodsport
You take a shortcut, you getting cut short
I'm in the baddest box, full count three and two
But I'ma hit it out the park, unretrieveable

[Verse 2: Jamie Drastik]
An opportunity comes once in a lifetime
I'm not a pussy so I don't rely on nine lives
I'ma claw to the top when I fly by
But the odds stacked against me, why lie?
They say that life's a ride, but I can't enjoy it
Mental rollercoaster, who got the stomach ford?
You should pay attention, how could you not afford it?
Life is my ghost writer, how could I not record it?
Success is up the road, I think I'm near it
I used my freedom of speech and charge people to hear it
This a sample of my talent, no charge to clear it
I'm on my own ride, no one's hear to steer it
Until they put me in the sky, respect me from the ground up
Regulator on a hater and tell my team to mount up
Let 'em talk crazy, I could care less
Cause you ain't run this shit, you a fake catch
[Chorus: Drake]
Who would've thought I'd be caught in this life?
Let's celebrate with a toast and get lost in tonight
And make it all light up
Wait until the sun goes down
We gon' make this bitch light up
Even when the sun goes down I'ma make it go

[Verse 3: David Rush]
Mama told me always, follow my dreams
I was too young to really know what that means
She told me when I be great not to walk by sight
Just to walk by faith, I learned my place
As I screamed into a microphone
Sweatin' in the booth feeling like I'm all alone
They always tell me I'ma make it soon
But there's so much I could do for my bedroom
Man, I might be dead soon, running out of time
Naming any rapper, we can go line from line
Rip his heart out in cold blood, valentine
Shout out back gorge jumping out the foul line
Success is so sweet from my little taste
So I guess it's on me to find my place
When I was stopping, everybody was on my shit
They want a rep back that be on my clique
Wanna record with me, be on my hits
And the hottest things in Jers came out my lips
Pause, what you know how this game is
Woman, you hot and next thing, you nameless
Putting my head down, never shameless
Real nigga, cause, I know what that pain is
Know what that change is, so I search it up
I lean back for a minute, double cup
Did tours, got money and doubled up
But sometimes, really feel like giving up
Yeah, but you know I ain't stopping
Although I'm living life about it, worth of Johnnie Cochran
My GPA good, so failing never an option
The haters that made me feel good, go ahead and knock 'em
Hit me with your best shot, you could never drop 'em
Eyes on me, cause I know that they watching
[Chorus: Drake]
Who would've thought I'd be caught in this life?
Let's celebrate with a toast and get lost in tonight
And make it all light up
Wait until the sun goes down
We gon' make this bitch light up
Even when the sun goes down I'ma make it go
