Lights on Me
Ivan B
[Intro: Ellie Goulding]
I had a way then losing it all on my own
I had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown
And I'm not sleeping now, the dark is too hard to beat
And I'm not keeping now the strength I need to push me

[Hook: Ellie Goulding]
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone

[Verse 1: Ivan B]
Yeah, I can hear it now, I can hear them loud
Lights on me for a better sound
Dropped the pursuit now we're heading for the loot
Need a dream to come true, so what now?
Look to the sun but the sun's down
But that doesn't mean the light's out
Made a fire in the heart and there might be a spark
Good luck tryna turn that light down
We the next on your ass, no mystery
Tido V and I authoring history
Write a hit song, yeah that's victory
Why you buying fake fans? That's trickery
When I'm gone don't saying you're missing me
'Cause you took your shots and you missed
Getting better than ever, remember this letter
This light is never gonna dim, damn
Stars are high for a reason
Not many are willing to reach
Looking for the lights beyond the stars
Why you settle for the lights on the streets?
Got my team, now we're heading for the peak
See the lights when I'm flying overseas
Living my life but it feels like a dream
I can see the lights pouring down on me
So here we go now, moving fast never slow down
Keep on dreaming 'til the lights out
This the year that I need now
This the time to strike, this is your life
Better get it right 'cause you don't get it twice
These are the moments your remember at night
So open your eyes and find your own light
[Hook: Ellie Goulding]
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone

[Verse 2: Ivan B]
Yeah, It's not about the hard life
But the hard work you put in from it
Dedication really pays off
See the rays coming down from the sunbeams
So you either breathe it, or you bleed it
Do you want it, or do you need it
Do you wish it, or do you see it
Is it a passion, do you feel it
This is my mind, body and soul
'Cause it's really all that I know
And I can't sit behind a desk, say I did my best
Not the story I want told
Said I was the worst rapper alive
Now they ask when I perform live
And a stage with beautiful lights
Or beautiful moment that I see insight
So you can tell me how it's supposed to be
Then I'll tell you how it is
'Cause a nine to five isn't a life
And being alive doesn't mean that you really live
Picked up a pen and a pad
Now I'm illustrating all that I have
Got my eyes up past the sky
Beyond the stars is where I'm at
So here we go, living the moment
Then watching it go
'Cause every second has gotta be gold
And every record has gotta be cold
'Cause in the end everybody gets old
This is your life, better get it right
'Cause you don't get it twice
Open your eyes and find your own light
The meaning of life is a meaningful life
[Hook: Ellie Goulding]
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
