Monty C. Benjamin - Lights Flicker [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: Monty C. Benjamin]
Down For The Cause
Down For The Cause what they told me
But i feel like it was compromising my art

Uh
Down for the cause
Down for a cause i ain't understand
Begin with because it tends to evolve

As i recall
I was just a student that's learning
Turned to this kid that made sure
They problems solved

And often i talk to
People that's listening saying benjamin
How do you stay benjamin through
It all

Well i realized
That time
Is gone behold
Some artist that no one knows
Or an entity to the globe

Uh last year we gave em lyrics
They turned they nose up
This year when we get booked
It ain't for exposure

Just making my mark
Off pen and
A pad ain't enough
So i gotta ask can i carve these words in your heart

With all of my thoughts
And
With Understanding this
Similar to a candle lit leading you
Through the dark like


[Hook: Monty C. Benjamin & FEVAH]

When night time takes over
I see the sun
Gotta keep going on

Even when i'm fading
I'm never gone
Gotta keep
Holding on to the light


[Verse 2: Monty C. Benjamin]

I feel
Above It All
Putting me
On this pedestal
Only that i fear is i won't hear your applause

Then nothing at all
Now I'm used to the silence
With no one else to confide in
My only move is to fall

But before can we talk
Take a moment i tell you
The thoughts of a
Up-and-comer that's soon
To be superstar

Cause this moment get's lost
By the time that you hear it
They done blew up off they lyrics
And now got multiple cars

First and foremost it's hard
Knowing you put your all into something
One misconception
And they dictate who you are

And when greatness the bar
Last thing on this earth
That i want to hear from a verse
Is ok you did a good job

It's me and y'all
My beliefs & listener
Writing to lift ya spirits up
If you ever feel lost

I been leading you all
Foward and Understanding this
Similar to a candle lit leading you
Through the dark

[Hook: Monty C. Benjamin & FEVAH]

When night time takes over
I see the sun
Gotta keep going
On

Even when i'm fading
I'm never gone
Gotta keep
Holding on to the light

[Bridge]
Now Are you
Now are you down for the cause?
Are you
Now are you
Now are you down for the cause?
Are you
Now are you
Now are you down for the cause?
Are you
Now are you

(Fuck that man I'm above it all)

[Verse 3: Monty C. Benjamin]
No longer
Will i
Depend
On the ground support
I'm gone
No turning back

Recall
Everytime
I hit the ground
I had to learn from that

Searching for
That paradise
Through poison
That they made for me

Gone break
Through the locks
For anybody else that
Ain't believe

Gotta make it count
Because
They counted me out
From the jump

Shown me love
Then switched it up
Prolly did that more that once

In a higher place
Then when i started
I ain't giving up
Say it twice
Ain't giving up
The pressure can't get thick
Enough

Coming from a place
They say you can't escape
I bet i can
Even if took the rest of my life
To find a better land

I'm gonna find forever
Swear it from the bottom of my heart
Finding brighter days
From moments i been through
When in the dark



[Hook: Monty C. Benjamin & FEVAH]

When night time takes over
I see the sun
Gotta keep going
On

Even when i'm fading
I'm never gone
Gotta keep
Holding on to the light
