Glow In The Dark
Diggy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can you see me glow in the dark
I'm one with the stars, and never too far
Yeah

Anything worth living is worth dying
Anything is worth giving is worth trying
I put myself in the shoes of a giant
I cover two socks, two knots and I'm tying
I was frightened, I was tired
But I knew that one day I would triumph
Heard of making noise
All it took was one guess
Now I'm blowing like the wind
Underneath the sun dress
Ah yes, I can smell the victory
They used to pick at me
Now they picking me
To be the one to hold the torch of liberty
I'll tell you every deed till I see that vividly
I tried to warn y'all into air born
I'm cold like I left the air on
I'm dope, I'm dope hair on
The world's gonna know from now on

Can you see me glow in the dark
I'm one with the stars, and never too far
Yeah
I can see you closing your eyes
So don't be surprised
All it takes is a spark
Till I glow in the dark

I imitate, I shine
Let this happen
From all the town
In time, in time, in time I glow in the dark

I imitate, I shine
Let this happen
From all the town
In time, in time, in time I glow in the dark

I never let them tell me what I can't do
God won't give me anything I can't handle
One candle can light all the rest
I'll live forever like I got a bite on my neck
Through my music, through my songs
This is your amusement, this is my songs
My God, forgive then for adultery
Diggy underscore simmons do yo follow me
Do you dig me, through your history
This didn't happen over night, quite the contrary
I've been working all my life
You hear what you hear
I work hard to get it right
They can measure light, they can't measure darkness
I ain't on my strikes, that's preposterous
First I couldn't care but now look at how I handle this
Who would've thought that your thought it couldn't happen

Can you see me glow in the dark
I'm one with the stars, and never too far
Yeah
I can see you closing your eyes
So don't be surprised
All it takes is a spark
Till I glow in the dark

I imitate, I shine
Let this happen
From all the town
In time, in time, in time I glow in the dark

I imitate, I shine
Let this happen
From all the town
In time, in time, in time I glow in the dark

Who is more foolish?
The child who is scared of the dark
Or the man afraid of the light
Glow in the dark
For everything around you is within you
Glow in the dark




Glow in the dark
