City Light
Jd Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I miss those City Lights waiting on you
Still got you on my mind everything I do
Yet still I try to hide, feelings oh so blue
Still got you on my mind everything I do
London town's been around my mind
Like a senile home while I'm on my grind
Trying to hit my prime like it's all good time
But my ego knows that I'll one day die
Feel my skin ripping of this bone
With a penile flow coming off your dome
Dick joke fine popping of this rhyme and I hope you'll be like
"What the fuck's he saying?"
Get that each time I drop this line
Like a prit-stick I'm staying in this time
Put in the work and it should pass me by
But I know she's hurt
And I still can't find
Reasons why the motherfucking love went blind
Maybe I shine and you're a different dime
Baby I know that if I want this life then love's a game I've got to sacrifice
I miss those City Lights waiting on you
Still got you on my mind, everything I do
Yet still I try to hide, feelings oh so blue
Still got you on my mind everything I do
I lied
It's true
I hate
That you
Would only ever be dreaming of on what Sunday we might do
I make
my mind
and change
it too
The difference there is between us, I won't go talking about it with you
If you try to stop me
I'm walking out
Of that door
Though I don't want to
I kind of thought that I'd hold you more
and we'd store up what we want too
Then one day maybe this wedding ring
could show you what you want to go through
See and that's why I'm leaving
We're both conceding what we want boo
Give me love and don't cry now
If it won't work with me by now
Why would I give all my time now
Darling you're sucking me dry now
I miss those City Lights waiting on you
Still got you on my mind, everything I do




Yet still I try to hide, feelings oh so blue
Still got you on my mind everything I do
