The Light Lyrics

    Yeah..
    Doo-doo-doo, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm..
    Doo-doo-d-doo, diggy-doo YO..

    I never knew a luh, luh-luh, a love like this
    Gotta be somethin for me to write this
    Queen, I ain't seen you in a minute
    Wrote this letter, and finally decide to send it
    Signed sealed delivered for us to grow together
    Love has no limit, let's spend it slow forever
    I know your heart is weathered by what studs did to you
    I ain't gon' assault em cause I probably did it too
    Because of you, feelings I handle with care
    Some niggaz recognize the light but they can't handle the glare
    You know I ain't the type to walk around with matchin shirts
    If relationship is effort I will match your work
    I wanna be the one to make you happiest, it hurts you the most
    They say the end is near, it's important that we close..
    .. to the most, high
    Regardless of what happen on him let's rely

    There are times.. when you'll need someone..
    I will be by your side..
    There is a light, that shines,
    special for you, and me..

    Yo, yo, check it
    It's important, we communicate
    and tune the fate of this union, to the right pitch
    I never call you my bitch or even my boo
    There's so much in a name and so much more in you
    Few understand the union of woman and man
    And sex and a tingle is where they assume that it land
    But that's fly by night for you and the sky I write
    For in these cold Chi night's moon, you my light
    If heaven had a height, you would be that tall
    Ghetto to coffee shop, through you I see that all
    Let's stick to understandin and we won't fall
    For better or worse times, I hope to me you call
    So I pray everyday more than anything
    friends will stay as we begin to lay
    this foundation for a family - love ain't simple
    Why can't it be anything worth having you work at annually
    Granted we known each other for some time
    It don't take a whole day to recognize sunshine

    There are times.. when you'll need someone..
    I will be by your side, oh darling
    There is a light, that shines,
    special for you, and me..

    Yeah.. yo, yo, check it
    It's kinda fresh you listen to more than hip-hop
    and I can catch you in the mix from beauty to thrift shop
    Plus you ship hop when it's time to, thinkin you fresh
    Suggestin beats I should rhyme to
    At times when I'm lost I try to find you
    You know to give me space when it's time to
    My heart's dictionary defines you, it's love and happiness
    Truthfully it's hard tryin to practice abstinence
    The time we committed love it was real good
    Had to be for me to arrive and it still feel good
    I know the sex ain't gon' keep you, but as my equal
    it's how I must treat you
    As my reflection in light I'ma lead you
    And whatever's right, I'ma feed you
    Digga-da, digga-da, digga-da, digga-digga-da-da
    Yo I tell you the rest when I see you, peace

    There are times.. when you'll need someone..
    I will be by your side..
    There is a light, that shines,
    special for you, and me..

    (I'll) take my chances.. before they pass..
    .. pass me by, oh darling..
    You need to look at the other side..
    You'll agree..
