In The Light Lyrics

I was spot off in that light

Light off in that spot

I was, I was, I, I was

I was spot off in that light

Light off in that spot

I was, I was, I, I was

I was walking through the valley of the shadow of death

I was told take the alley cuz the valley's a mess

Took ahold of the rock that made Goliath profess

I spent a, life as a child, I'm prepared for the test

And a series of pests, just getting buried in cess

No leaving the tracks or getting beaten by press

A pessimist yes, but an optimist, no

I was taught you're only living as far as artifacts go

I was headed for the light but saw the bugs from below

I had to turn of all the lights and survive on the glow

Some dudes be passing out the liquor and be dumping out blow

Just to get an inch of my stitch or a bitch and a hoe

I started building in the back and just letting it grow

I was letting them know as far as intelligence goes

I was letting them know as far as my penmanship shows

That a lion's unconcerned with the sheep and the clones

That my fire's undisturbed by the wind and the storm

And music's not a business, but an act to perform

So I'm running all my records til like 6 in the morn'

While these other cats jack with some lotion and porn, they're not

watching what's important because they don't know where they're going

While my own is like a poem with some xylem and phloem

Because my roots are fucking growing like I'm soaking up ocean

And Andre's got the hook cuz the light is the moment, Yeah!

I was spot off in that light

Light off in that spot,

I was, I was, I, I was
