Colin Munroe - I Want Those Flashing Lights [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
You got your name in lights and they can't seem to spell mine right
You sold a mil today, today I'm lucky if I get paid
If I could get paid, I'd survive another day
Maybe if I could get played, they'd know my name
Your girls are fine it seems, a dime or two in every dozen
I only wanted one but I'm no one so I get nothing
But all this nothing I've got is all that's keeping me tough
Maybe this nothing I've got, is enough

[Hook]
When I'm alone and the lights go off
I'm never sure if I can make it that far
All that I know is
I want those (I want those)
I want those flashing lights
I want those (I want those)
I want those flashing lights

[Verse 2]
You dropped the class, re-wrote the books and I'm still tryna pass
I'm at the back professor, a question
What is the, secret to the (flashing lights)
Is it just make believe
It's not easy, wish it was ABC
You did your time, you broke your wire and now you got your shine
I'm in the line lost in the crowd still tryna figure it out
Still tryna do it right, still tryna find the light
Maybe not tonight

[Hook]
When I'm alone and the lights go off
I'm never sure if I can make it that far
All that I know is
I want those (I want those)
I want those flashing lights
I want those (I want those)
I want those flashing lights

When you're alone and the lights go off
Did you always know that you would make it this far
All that I know is
I want those (I want those)
I want those flashing lights
I want those (I want those)
I want those flashing lights
