Light Day - T.I.

Hey, check me

I ain’t-I ain’t gon' go back and forth

Yeah

Went insane in the Nineties and then I bounced back

Could of this year, lookin' like I lost my mind again

Now, did I find it (No?)

Life is all about timin' (It is)

Gotta know the devil’s in the details

That why when you doin' deals, I would wanna read the fine print

I’m the king, nigga, no denyin' that (Uh uh)

But nevermind that, just a solid nigga tryna find solutions to the generation

problem

Make a couple hundred million dollars in the process (What wrong wit' dat?)

And my mind set, it fluctuate from gettin' a bunch of paper to the revolution

to a six shooter

Fuck the President and fuck politics (Fuck 'em, yeah)

I’m just a family man, former dope boy

So you know I ain’t goin' for no bullshit, no

They stay cappin' I make happen, shit

Muh’fucka think can’t happen

They shit talkin', I’m face slappin'

No convo, I’m talkin' straight action like the old days

Met the forty cal, spin 'em 'round like the O-Jays

Hit 'em four time with the four-four bumpin' Jay shit, yeah

Never tolerated disrespect, I ain’t the one to play with (Nah)

Way a minute, now

Cross that line;

he wouldn’t dare

In shark water, way deep out there, yeah

I ain’t never lived in the moment

Busy tryna find another way to feel that rush

Man, fuck the celebration, concentrate on gettin' bigger

I’m tryna find a way to feed all these niggas

Can you carry that load?

Wanna live that life?

The shit you doin', homie, I done all that twice

That’s a light day

The shit you doin', homie, I done all that twice

That’s a light day

Okay

Death before dishonor amongst us thieves is honor, okay

With y’all it’s me and mine, with us it’s we and ours

Okay, okay, with us we hit a lick and bust it up

You hear the lick, kill your homie, and keep from splittin' it

See, treachery will never be cool

Whatever we do, we straight up

Tuck no tail, take no shit

Consider your decisions, the consequences and benefit

'Fore you just go out, gettin' into shit

Gone be some real when the sentence hit

Then a cold penitentiary, said you gon' be gone a quarter century

Say, when they mention your name, nigga go to forgettin' shit

Your co-defendant singin', was on some Boyz 2 Men shit

Fundamentals, move work and rental

Hustlin', business to attend to

Broke shit, I wasn’t into, couldn’t do it

Operation by any means make it outta the hood

Love to see my momma doin' good, uh

Love to see my niggas stackin' money, gettin' to it, shit

But when the light don’t shine and the ice don’t glow 'cause your window closed,

you know

I ain’t never lived in the moment

Busy tryna find another way to feel that rush

Man, fuck the celebration, concentrate on gettin' bigger

I’m tryna find a way to feed all these niggas

Can you carry that load?

Wanna live that life?

The shit you doin', homie, I done all that twice

That’s a light day

The shit you doin', homie, I done all that twice

That’s a light day

That’s a light day, oooooh

That’s a light day

That’s a light day

Oooooooh, that’s a light day
