Lyrics: Seen The Light (ft Rico Love)

[in the background]
I seen da light
I seen da love
Seen all da things I heard ‘bout
Seen all da things I read about
I seen da light

[Rico Love]
Yo uhh
This feel real good right here man it’s a good look
Shoulda been, its love, young Chris

[Chris Brown]
Guch whuddup

[RL]
From the streets of VA
Talk to da whole world man
Better America, talk to ‘em man

[Verse 1, CB]
It’s been a struggle for me wonderin’ why I can’t get by wit my life
But now I’m free and I done did some right and wrong but I still see the light
And I done been around sets and drugs hustlin’ but momma 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
Cuz I

[Chorus 1]
Seen a lotta bad things on my block
But I ain’t wanna be a victim of a gunshot
I can’t let nuttin’ hold me down
See all the things I heard ‘bout, woooh
See all the things I read about wooaa
I seen the light

[Verse 2]
It’s kinda hard for me to stay away from all these girls
And the haters they don’t like that I’m fulfillin’ my dreams
But I’m jus tryna do my thing my nigga can I live my life
I got da world on my shoulders (shoulders)
And I’m only getting’ older (older)
But it’s like it’s getting’ colder
I gon’ make it but I can’t take it sometimes

[Chorus 2]
I’ve came along way from my block
And I’ve prayed forth for everything I got
I didn’t let nuttin’ break me down
See all the things I heard bout ooh yeah
See all the things I read about
I seen the light

[Spoken, CB]
Wow uh man after all this
Who woulda thought lil’ boy from Tappahannock, Virginia
You know what I’m sayin’, would make it all the way to the top

[RL]
Life is vivid when seen through the eyes of a righteous spirit
They try to show us da light but we don’t like to hear it
Momma told me I was bright but despite her lyrics
A large hurt across my sight I had to fight to clear it
Like a runner a couple of summers I often wondered if it really was winning
And that’s when I heard da thunder
A current was occurring it was stirring up my hunger
But I couldn’t let the *shit* burry a *nigga* under (don’t let it)
Used to cry hopin’ all this would pass
And then I learned to use my tears to water up da grass
So part of my swag but apparently I won
Cuz I took my shades off and now I’m starin’ at the sun

See all the things I heard bout
I’m seein’ da light (i’m seein’ da light)
I’m realizing dat it’s me in da light
See all the things I read about
I read ‘bout it, I heard about it
I seen the light
And now I know

[Bridge, CB]
I coulda did wrong, I seen a lot a people hustle
But I left them things alone, I almost lost my friend to da struggle
But I guess dat made me strong (made me strong)
I seen a whole lotta drama and it taught me how to fight (taught me how to fight)
And I thank god for my momma she showed me what was right
I coulda been in da dark but thank god for da light
(I seen da light)

See all the things I heard bout
All da things I heard bout
See all the things I read about
I read about it, I read about it
I seen the light
I see the light, I see the light
