Lights Out
C. Ray Lyrics

Been working my days away
I have been working tirelessly for a long time.

Y'all better give me a break
I deserve some time off or rest from my work.

About to go back to the house
I am going home soon.

Ima crash on the couch
I am going to collapse and rest on the couch.

Face down yeah, it's lights out
I am going to sleep with my face down, indicating complete exhaustion.

Tell me what more I got to say
I have said enough, but what else do you want to hear?

It's about half past I need a raise
It is around halfway through the day, and I desperately need a salary increase.

I don't play that
I do not tolerate or engage in such behavior.

Time to lay back
It is time for me to relax and take it easy.

And you know I don't slack
You are aware that I do not waste time or work less.

But I got to relax
However, I need to unwind and de-stress.

No sleep, bodies weak, got to eat, yeah
I have not slept, my body is exhausted, and I need to eat.

Sipping on my drink
I am slowly savoring my beverage.

Wide awake on my feet
Despite being physically tired, I am mentally alert and fully awake.

Bones achin, Breath stankin
My bones are in pain, and my breath is unpleasant due to fatigue.

Been a long week
The week has been incredibly exhausting and challenging.

Need some time for me
I require some personal time and relaxation.

Ventilation got to breath
I need fresh air and space to breathe freely.

Need a dose
I need something to uplift and rejuvenate me.

Medicate my soul
I am seeking a remedy or activity that soothes and nourishes my inner self.

I don't need the liquor, vape or the weed smoke
I do not rely on alcohol, vaping, or marijuana to relax or find solace.

No daddy in my sight
I do not have a father figure in my life.

Tell me son its gon' be alright
Someone reassures me, a young person, that everything will be fine.

I was bitter
I used to harbor resentment or anger.

But I learned to grow
However, I have learned and matured from my experiences.

Many lessons
I have gained numerous valuable insights.

It kept me guessin
These lessons have consistently challenged and surprised me.

All this wrestlin
Throughout all the struggles and obstacles.

Kept me flexin
They have made me resilient and adaptable.

Here I am
Now, I am in this position.

Counting up these blessings
I am recognizing and acknowledging the positive things in my life.

Ready for the weekend
I am anticipating and prepared for the upcoming weekend.

Relieve all this tension
I need the weekend to release and alleviate the built-up stress.

Time is money
Every moment is valuable and should not be wasted.

Chase it down
I am actively pursuing and working towards my goals.

Feeling like I'm running
I have a sense of urgency and the need to keep moving forward.

Aint it funny
Isn't it ironic or curious?

I don't got a lot
I do not have a substantial amount or abundance.

But its better then nothing
However, having something is still preferable to having nothing at all.

Grateful to have a little something
I appreciate and feel thankful for having even a small amount.

Work hard, play later
I believe in putting in effort and dedicating time to work before enjoying leisure activities.

Keep it one hundred
I always remain honest and true to myself and others.

Lagging on a bad day
On a difficult day, I feel behind and lack energy or motivation.

Flirting with my flesh
I am tempted or enticed by physical desires or impulsive actions.

Bad mood, feeling rude
I am in a negative emotional state and may come across as impolite or unpleasant.

Sweat dripping down my neck
I am perspiring heavily, which is causing discomfort and irritability.

Wanna quit, about to flip
I am tempted to give up and become overwhelmed or agitated.

Kill my pride
I need to set aside my ego and let go of arrogance.

At the end of the day
Ultimately, when all is said and done.

I got to pay this rent, yeah
I have the responsibility to fulfill my financial obligations, specifically paying rent.

On my daily routine
Following my regular schedule and tasks.

Hit the ground
I start my day with determination and energy.

Spinnin like gold d's
I am moving quickly and smoothly, like spinning gold rims on a car.

Living life like tomorrows not guaranteed
I am embracing and savoring the present moment, as the future is uncertain.

Ready for the weekend
I am eagerly looking forward to and prepared for the upcoming weekend.

It all fades away
All the stress and worries gradually disappear or diminish.

Like dem dark blue jeans
Similar to how the color fades from dark blue jeans over time.
