Light Up The Dark

Verse 1: Substantial
I'm from a place bed riddled with crime
Lucky to be alive as I start to enter my prime
Love and hate through battle the universal design
Will reduce the cattle don't let em enter your mind
Think for yourself let your rain be free
Get your third eye blind can't believe what you see
All in your ear tell you what you observe
Everything you see and hear make you part of the herd
Damn where hope go?
Battery in the red running so low
No army, everyone singing solo
Try to see the world through my eyes without GoPro
I'm just your local real that think global
Turn me up in the mix so I can be more vocal
Might give a spark to your soul
And my goal is to light up the dark, let's go

Hook: Substantial & Precious Jobert
Light up the dark
Shine on, like you open up the blinds for em
Tryna open up the mind's on em (light up the dark)
Shed light on em, I ain't strong enough to fight for em
I've been waiting for the right moment
To light it up
Light it up (light up the dark)

Verse 2: Substantial
Here to light up the dark
Whether or not we head right up the charts
Make every single word hit you right in the heart
When we come together for this night and embark
On a quest for growth and prosperity
Till it's all wavy like I'm part Cherokee
Difficult for all you know it's barbarity
Feeling like that's all you see when ya'll stare at me
We all got a choice when we fall terribly
Lift myself up and let the pallbearers carry me
Let em know they can't put a price on our clarity
No cost for this advice it's all charity
So put it right in your car
Check out the way we finish right where we start
On the darkest night of your light heal the star
And you can shine brighter than all

Hook: Substantial & Precious Jobert
Light up the dark
Shine on, like you open up the blinds for em
Tryna open up the mind's on em (light up the dark)
Shed light on em, I ain't strong enough to fight for em
I've been waiting for the right moment (light up the dark)
To light it up
Light it up (light up the dark)

Verse 3: Substantial
Here to spark the soul, till I light up the whole wide world
And they feeling it across the globe
I'd like to know that I'm not alone in this world
But I still can stand on my own
I've got to go even though I don't know where to start
Just shine baby light up the dark
Light up the dark
Light up the dark

Hook: Substantial & Precious Jobert
Light up the dark
Shine on, like you open up the blinds for em
Tryna open up the mind's on em (light up the dark)
Shed light on em, I ain't strong enough to fight for em (light up the dark)
I've been waiting for the right moment (light up the dark)
To light it up
Light it up (light up the dark)

Bridge: Precious Jobert
I know it gets hard but there's a silver spark
It's never the end until we depart
A moment of hope, a break in the mold
So light up the dark, light up the dark
