SPOTLIGHTS is the intro to DC The Don’s debut album, REBIRTH. The song does an excellent job of setting up a lot of the themes throughout the album, including DC’s relationships, anxiety, being a “low life”, and chasing fame.
DC has stated that this is his favorite intro to any of his projects
[Intro]
Woke up on the floor today, how did last night go wrong?
She said, "Welcome to the low life, you're already on"
I'm washed up from the weekend, I need a second on my own
Like, what'd you put in my cup, love? It was already strong (Yeah)
And I'm already gone
[Refrain]
I was already gone when I left
In the moment, lost myself, gettin' no rest
You got me just fallin', it took all the wind from my chest
So gone, I lost all control of what's next
[Verse 1]
Caught us slippin' in both angles, catchin' our worst angles
Speedin' all through the hills to go party with more strangers
All them demons around when we switch up the location
Paintin' pictures too blurry to make out, we not angels
Movin' fast with no pace, just trippin' over my laces
Hate it when they surroundin' me
She wanna be on the stage, but afraid of them backstages
Rather be recognized, I won't need to die nameless, let me know (Oh)
[Chorus]
The spotlight make you nervous? You make me nervous too
You're outside of the ordinary, don't never let 'em get a hold of you
The spotlight make you nervous?
All them lights keep you blinded, them shades block me out
[Verse 2]
My love I carry for you bring more stress
And I'm sorry, love, I'm so busy usin' my phone less (Woah-oh)
It's powered off, and now it's just only a black mirror
Reflectin' back all of them feelings that I regret
I'm tryna move on, I keep swallowin' my anger (Woah-oh-oh-oh)
Tongue tied, I wrote it down in some more pages (Ooh)
You promised me, baby, it wouldn't change you
Now all of a sudden, we close strangers (Yeah)
[Refrain]
I was already gone when I left (Ladies and gentlemen)
In the moment, lost myself, gettin' no rest
You got me just fallin', it took all the wind from my chest
So gone, I lost all control of what's next (Oh)
[Chorus]
The spotlight make you nervous? You make me nervous too
You're outside of the ordinary, don't never let 'em get a hold of you (Woah-oh-oh)
The spotlight make you nervous?
All them lights keep you blinded, them shades block me out
(They still block me out)
The spotlight make you nervous? You make me nervous too (Yeah)
You're outside of the ordinary, don't never let 'em get a hold of you
The spotlight make you nervous?
All them lights keep you blinded, them shades block me out (Yeah)
[Outro]
Spotlight, oh-oh
Ladies and gentlemen
Spotlight, oh-oh
Please welcome
Spotlight, oh-oh
