Turn On The Lights
Future Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her (yeah)
Is that her in the V.I.P. line
With the Vuitton and Yves Saint Laurent?
Used to drive the Nissan, now she in a Beamer
I don't want her 'cause she from the corner
And I heard that Beamer was a loner
Her old man the owner
And don't even drink Corona's
What type of drink you want, bruh?
Know it's champagne forever
I'm dirty Sprite forever
You can come sit with me
If you'd like to change the weather
If you wanna live better
We can buy a crib, wherever
Don't get too thirsty, get used to this cheddar
I wanna tell the world about you just so they can get jealous
And if you see her 'fore I do tell her I wish that I met her
Turn on the lights
I'm lookin' for her too
I heard she keep her promises and never turn on you
I heard she ain't gon' cheat and she gon' never make no move
I heard she be there anytime you need her, she come through
Turn on the lights
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
Turn on the lights
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
Send her my way
Tell her I've been lookin' for her in the broad day
Hangin' with the dope boys in the hallways
And I know to keep her, yeah, you gotta get that pay
Turn on the lights
I'm lookin' for her too
I heard she got a pretty face and stand up like a stallion
I heard that she a precious jewel, you'll treat her to medallions
I wanna be the one to find out if I go to prowlin'
And if I get her number, you know I can't wait to dial it
And if we get together, girl, you know we gon' be wildin'
And when we get together we make magic and it's ours
Whenever you up here, ain't nothin' nobody can do about it
Turn on the lights
I'm lookin' for her too
I heard she keep her promises and never turn on you
I heard she ain't gon' cheat and she gon' never make no move
I heard she be there anytime you need her, she come through
Turn on the lights
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
Turn on the lights
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
She a hood girl
But she a good girl
She been misled
Now she ready for the world
I want your energy
To take control of me
I tried to go to sleep
And seen her in my dreams
Just in case I run across her today, I'ma stay clean
Just in case you recognize her face, send her to me
And tell her I've been lookin' for her with a flashlight
You can't tell a nigga nothin' 'cause I got my cash right
And tell her if she honest I promise to stay true
Make sure when you tell her, tell her we goin' past the moon
Turn on the lights
I'm lookin' for her too
I heard she keep her promises and never turn on you
I heard she ain't gon' cheat and she gon' never make no move
I heard she be there anytime you need her, she come through
Turn on the lights
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
Turn on the lights
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
I'm lookin' for her
(I'm lookin' for her)
