nightlightr – the burn lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
(can you imagine kissing some man)
my friend said with a laugh, in the back of the cl-ss
i was just doing math, adding up all the time
i was tested in english, but sh-t i had to p-ss

(can you imagine kissing some man)
the pastor said on the stage, and the feeling was strange
i know i couldn’t engage, i just had to behave
with my front row rage, i didn’t think i could change

(can you imagine kissing some man)
my mom said on the phone, i’m thinking how can she know
she wasn’t trying to disown, but she not bout to condone
breaking a cornerstone, so i just had to postpone

(can you imagine kissing some man)
i asked myself one day, it wasn’t going away
i didn’t mean to betray, i was feeling afraid
so heavily it would weigh, the word that i couldn’t say

(can you imagine kissing some man)
the price of eternity was heavily burning me
with the fire to the fifth degree, foolishly thought i was free
because i couldn’t see, the thing i couldn’t be

[verse 2]
i’ve been losing myself since the day i was born
i was forced to conform, just to fit with the norm
i had to practice every day in the uniform
while they were just pretending to be transformed and reformed

so i ain’t going back since i closed the church door
and hit the ignore on offers to mentor
i don’t need to hear your voice no more
i spent a lot of time sitting and i know what y’all stand for

love is not a thing that you get to define for others
and my ident-ty is not only confined to the covers
so stop dividing your brothers, when you know that we suffer
the suicide so high our mothers trying to recover

but you don’t want to hear it, you think its gods design
and the holy spirit will shine when they f-ck-and-die
oh thats the other church right right that ain’t y’all
had to turn the other cheek with our love against the law

the kiss of death we discovered in the bathroom stall
then police bust in, now get against the wall
you get one phone call, and a cell too small
this the history before we knew ru paul

and i know we got the marriage and divorce in the court
but they still pulling christian carts before the horse
and we don’t need the source of your support
a tour de force is par for the community course

and i won’t stop fighting and writing
for the ones who remain in hiding
biding time until they leave defying
families and churches that keep them crying

cause i was that kid never saying a word
when i heard the slurs over who i might prefer
so the mic is to enlighten the pain transferred
and return the burn they thought that we deserved
