Lyrics

Lit Match by Thaahum copyright 12.03.04


I don?t need lots of respect and praise,
Need lots of money, dollars, checks, a raise,
Of income so I can fest for days.
If I can?t do more to invest a wage-
That?s worse than a slow death, a waste.
Get all of what?s left to taste.
When you rich, the effect is great.
Your kids don?t worry about they next plate,
They mothers scurry out what?s left of that hate,
They had when you wasn?t doing shit for they sake.
By my girls I do right, they spark the light.
I?m the guide that a lead ?em out the dark of night.
Ignite the wrong and make it right.
Take ballin? to a brand new height.
Success after I?ve had the trials.
That?s what makes me crack a smile!!



CHORUS

They don?t understand words you speak.
Put your light on bright!
You failed, but hell at least you tried.
Put your light on bright!
Don?t be afraid to be unique.
Put your light on bright!
Stay vibin? on that good high!
Put your light on bright!



VERSE 2

Seek to find the 3rd eye once more,
Instead of seeking ass of women or man whores.
For sensation: quick, fast, what a bore!
We got wings, very few want to soar.
Everyone thinks they got tough problems,
Same story, switched characters involved in.
My kids? moms acted like I didn?t exist.
Made me pissed. I thought, why persist.
To see my children if it takes all this?
But I told my girls I?d climb all cliffs.
To give then bliss. Bestow them gifts.
So nothing in the world they?d ever miss.
No matter who tries to stop of fight me,
I?m the world?s greatest, not another father like me.
I practice this, to get past the shit.
We all got a match, my match is lit!!!


CHORUS
Your baby daddy actin? up.
Put your light on bright!
The masses want to judge your ways.
Put your light on bright!
Your baby mom don?t give a fuck.
Put your light on bright!
Don?t budge, stand ground for better days.
Put your light on bright!



VERSE 3
I shine bright don?t want to cool off.
Folks too soft wanna throw dude off.
That?s a lesson I don?t? need to go through.
Old news-I act like I don?t know you.
Full of yourself, something I outgrew.
Ego trippin? like everything all about you.
Back up don?t say ?hi? or ?bye? to me.
Give a motha fucka his privacy.
My light too bright for your eyes to see.
Stop trying to comprehend the vibe of me.
Want to jump coattails, down for the ride,
But you and I?s lives don?t coincide.
I?m fine! Get out my brain by the scoopful,
Time to patch it up with something useful.
I?m not trying to front like I?m the shit,
Jus? you and I are like latches, but mine is lit!



CHORUS


People always in your face.
Put your light on bright!
Folks always putting you down.
Put your light on bright!
People won?t give you your space.
Put your light on bright!
Keep your inner color loud.
Put your light on bright!



(REPEAT 1st CHORUS & END)
