StreetLIGHTS

Verse 1:
Look, I could have been a dealer
A stripper, then the white and the dark
Only failing for the void in my life
Could’ve danced with the devil in the moonlight
Formed into a serial killer living the spoon life
Cheerio, I ain’t milking the idea
Of waking up boxed near knowing I’ma die here
Food for thought, could have chose a different route
Gangbanging on the corner, bust straps for the clout
But love’s what I’m about, know I said it before
I’m SkyBlew to the bone, Skeletor and some more
Could’ve been a whore, sleeping with every girl that I meet
But committed to my dreams, honeymoon in my sleep
Could’ve been discreet but a psycho on the low
Addicted to mannequins, taking pics at the sto’, I know
I could’ve been like all of the above but nah
I’d rather spread love, duh

Refrain:
(If I can have one wish come true…)
Streetlights, streetlights
(If I can have one wish come true, that wish would be)
Streetlights, streetlights

Verse 2:
Could have been a stereotype
Ratchet and following what followers of radio like
Igniting them, armor condemn the karma
For lines to the princess vow not to let nobody harm her
I coulda been a deadbeat dad with a lost son in the world
Heart full of wrath forced on the path that he didn’t choose
Nobody to guide him, chance is minuscule
Or been what he could have been, a lawyer a doctor
Pilot helicopters, all he need was a father
Coulda been him nah that coulda been you you
Coulda been a ish wha-what would you do do
If you didn’t have a place to call home yo
Coulda been lost in the cold tryna regain ya soul I know
I could’ve been like all of the above but nah
I’d rather spread love, duh

Refrain:
(If I can have one wish come true…)
Streetlights, streetlights
(If I can have one wish come true, that wish would be)
Streetlights, streetlights

Verse 3:
I’m none of the above, I’m a dreamer
You can see it in my demeanor
They say the grass greener on the other side
You can have that, rather not be a coulda-been
Should went to the Nasdaq stock-broking
But never stop hoping
Why fix what’s not broken, I got my token
For the train ride, mentally I know I can’t hide
From who I’m meant to be, the truth ain’t lies
I’ma live for tonight while the streetlight guides me
Playing my path it don’t surprise me
All I see is my destiny in front of me
Not a coulda been, all I know is who I wanna be
Not a wannabe but original
Only one me separate from the fictional
Love prevails and my tales the embodiment
Take your time, you’ll see what I probably meant

Refrain:
(If I can have one wish come true…)
Streetlights, streetlights
(If I can have one wish come true, that wish would be)
Streetlights, streetlights

(If I can have one wish come true…)
Streetlights, streetlights
(If I can have one wish come true, that wish would be)
Streetlights, streetlights
