Explicit version of "Dark Days, Bright Nights" lyrics
Okay
If you shed blood with me to this point
For all the hell that you've endured
And this effort to bless the nation
But I've always showed you heart
Man
To think I would just despise the folks
Because I'm broke and white it's absurd
I'm told be tight
Yeah
'Coz these bright nights could lead to dark days and vice versa
Even if Greg Street don't play
Frankly
I'm making love to the truth
I won't even talk about stare from angry illogic rappers
'Coz every time they get confronted
This one don't really need a hook
So I devote this to my life
Dark days
For that outside in the night
Bright nights
For them broads that truly love me and hate to see me live this way
Dark days
For when they say you can't live
Bright nights
For every person without a voice that got something they need to say
See it's apparent that you know
Not cause of any rap I wrote
Though
It's my vision
Love comes in a form of a various drug
So me and my folks get f***** up like six nights out of seven
That's the bright light in our lives
Like God's shinning light right out of Heaven
But at the conclusion of every session
I wish that dark day to expose the plight of my situation
No blow
But still they see we this close from seeing the promise land
So that leads to another bright night
Being loved by the moms and dads
Which some of us wasn't blessed with
You think we all born with two lovin' parents and a treasure chest
S***
And I'm gonna make their son a winner
Even if I was to ruin it
We developed too strong of a bond
Dark days
For that outside in the night
Bright nights
For them broads that truly love me and hate to see me live this way
Dark days
For when they say you can't live
Bright nights
For every person without a voice that got something they need to say
Yeah
You know
When they intentionally hide the blacks
Ain't got no reply to that
I tried like hell to sooth your soul by planting the facts inside your brain
I never once lied to the game
It's just Bubba that country f***** smoking swages
And eating snack foods
Now every time they ask you
Say 'coz Bubba set you right
That leaves you with no excuse to settle with what they offer
He try to pay you the slave wagers
I'll probably won't even falter if you dismiss me as the demon
'Coz it is true
But if we fight this evening
And it'll take your whole slum and all their guns to leave me dead
Plus all that blood we shed what do nothin' but server their purpose
So let's unite these dark days and bright nights
Dark days
For that outside in the night
Bright nights
For them broads that truly love me and hate to see me live this way
