Blackout Lyrics by Wretch 32

2013

[Hook - Shakka]
When the lights hurt my brain
Sometimes I pray for a blackout
With the candles ablaze
Nothing more I crave than a blackout
Let there be no light
Let there be no light, ’til the sunrise
Let there be no light
Only then will I open my eyes
Let there be no light

[Verse 1 - Wretch 32]
This little light of mine
It’s like my peace of mind
Even when I’m in the dark
Still gotta let me shine
Let me fly, my mind’s got wings on it
Got a blue, got a brown, got a pink on it
My little bro’s got a sixth on it
I splash cash and I drink solid
I don’t wanna act bad, don’t wanna see a pap’ flash
I just wanna black out without backlash
Don’t wanna hear snap snap snap, that shit gets annoying
Wanna be alive, not just employed
There, follow my heart
Even the light’s got faith in the dark, amen

[Hook - Shakka]
When the lights hurt my brain
Sometimes I pray for a blackout
With the candles ablaze
Nothing more I crave than a blackout
Let there be no light
Let there be no light, ’til the sunrise
Let there be no light
Only then will I open my eyes
Let there be no light

[Verse 2 - Wretch 32]
Is it that way you move your hips, or that piercing on your lips
Or that Disaronno flowing like it’s serving through a drip
I am no longer a person, I’m a star up in the bitch
So I talk with body language, my vocabulary is shit
Got a feeling that you’re feeling how I’m feeling
Would waking up with me tomorrow morning make your evening
If so, let’s find a corner in the place that I can breathe in
My ego’s claustrophobic, you should know we’ve had a threesome
Leave it

[Hook - Shakka]
When the lights hurt my brain
Sometimes I pray for a blackout
With the candles ablaze
Nothing more I crave than a blackout
Let there be no light
Let there be no light, ’til the sunrise
Let there be no light
Only then will I open my eyes
Let there be no light

[Bridge - Wretch 32]
Take away my light
Take away my shine
Take away my eyesight
Give me a beat and let me rhyme
Take away my light
Take away my shine
Take away my eyesight
Give me a beat and let me rhyme
Take away my light
Take away my shine
Take away my eyesight
Give me a beat and let me rhyme
Take away my light
Take away my shine
Take away my eyesight
Give me a beat and let me rhyme

[Hook]
When the lights hurt my brain
Sometimes I pray for a blackout
With the candles ablaze
[Nothing more I crave than a blackout
Let there be no light
Let there be no light, ’til the sunrise
Let there be no light
Only then will I open my eyes
Let there be no light
