Seen the Light

Lyrics

[Intro: Rico Love] Yo, uh, just feel real good right here, man (I see the light) It's a good look, sugar bear, it's love (I see what's wrong) Young Chris, Gucci, what up? (See all the things I've heard about) From the streets of VA Talk to the whole world, man (See all the things I've read about) Ghetto America, uh (Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh) Talk to 'em, man (I see the light) [Verse 1: Chris Brown] It's been a struggle for me Wondering why I can't get by with my life But now I'm free And I done did some right and wrong, but still I see the light And I done been around the sex and drugs Hustling, but mama ain't raise no thug And it took a little to see How real it could get and how this life wasn't meant for me 'Cause I [Pre-Chorus: Chris Brown] Seen a lot of bad things on my block But I ain't wanna be a victim of a gunshot I can't let nothing hold me down [Chorus: Chris Brown] See all the things I've heard about (Woo) See all the things I've read about (Woah) I see the light (Huh, yeah) [Verse 2: Chris Brown] It's kinda hard for me To stay away from all these girls, and the haters, they don't like That I'm fulfilling my dream But I'm just tryna do my thing, my nigga, can't I live my life? I got the world on my shoulders (Shoulders) And I'm only gettin' older (Older) But it's like it's gettin' colder I'm gon' make it, but I can't take it sometimes [Pre-Chorus: Chris Brown] I came a long way from my block And I'm grateful for everything I got I didn't let nothing bring me down [Chorus: Chris Brown] See all the things I've heard about (Ooh, yeah) See all the things I've read about I see the light [Interlude: Chris Brown] Wow, oh, man, after all this Who woulda thought? (Yeah) Lil' boy from Tappahannock, Virginia, you know what I'm saying? Would make it all the way to the top [Verse 3: Rico Love] Life is vivid, but seen through the eyes of a righteous spirit They try to show us the light, but we don't like to hear it (We don't like to hear it) Mama told me I was bright, but despite her lyrics A large herd across my sight, I had to fight to clear it (Uh, uh) Like a runner, a couple of summers, I often wondered if it Really was winter and that's when I heard the thunder A current was occurrin', it was stirrin' up my hunger But I couldn't let the **** bury a **** under (Don't let it) Used to cry hopin' all of this would pass And then I learned to use my tears to water up the grass, so Pardon my swag, but apparently I've won 'Cause I took my shades off and now I'm starin' at the sun (See all the things I've heard about) I'm seein' the light, I'm seein' the light, uh I'm realizin' that it's me in the light (See all the things I've read about) I read about it (Read about it) I heard about it (I heard about it) And now I know (I've seen the light, uh, woo) [Verse 4: Chris Brown] I coulda did wrong I seen a lot of people hustle, but I left them things alone I almost lost my friend to the struggle, but I guess that made me strong (Made me strong) I seen a whole lot of drama and it taught me how to fight (Taught me how to fight) And I thank God for my mama, she showed me what was right I coulda been in the dark, but thank God for the light (I see the light) I seen the light [Chorus: Chris Brown] See all the things I've heard about (All the things I've heard about) See all the things I've read about (I've read about it, I've read about it, oh) I see the light (I see the light, I see the light)
