[MattyBRaps, Maddi Jane - Turned Out The Lights lyrics]
Give me a reason for leaving
The reason your heart turned to stone
Now it's so cold
You saw me standing with tears in my eyes
And then you turned out the lights
Dear Matt
I know we've never really met each other
But, you've helped me out so much
I felt I had to write this letter
You might not know it when
Your making your beats
But every lyric and syllable's like
You're speaking to me
Cause where I'm from they don't encourage
A kid with a dream and every time I have an
Idea that I believe in
It gets stomped or squashed and
Then I feel lost
Like it wanna go dig a hole, feeling so low
Don't get me wrong
I believe but get real Matt
Sometimes it's difficult to achieve when
People don't believe back
I'm not complaining but it's hard
To go after my goals
Cause the people I need most just leave
They're cold my teacher told me that I'll
Never amount to anything
But, I wrote a chorus for you to sing
I know it's probably not good enough
Not even close
But, it's how I feel most so it goes
Where are you now? And why did you go?
Give me a reason for leaving
The reason your heart turned to stone
Now it's so cold
You saw me standing with tears in my eyes
And then you turned out the lights
Lights, you turned out the lights
Lights, why'd you turn out the lights?
Everyday is a new struggle
In every situation is a moment where
A choice can bring new trouble
Sometimes I feel like I'm gonna
Burst like a bubble
Here's what I've been through
Now let me inspire you
I hope you never have to feel what it's like
To feel lost
The cost of not a friend in site
Despite your best efforts you
Can't fight back
When you love someone but they
Don't love you back
Matt, remember us in your lyrics
When you write that
The kids that don't have it
All within an arms grasp
Can we dream too? Or is it fantasy?
I need to place where I fit in, in the family
So I'ma choose to believe despite all
Of these words that sting
All of these hurtful things
With these few words I sing
Just keep it real on the mic B
And you've got a friend for life
Where are you now and why did you go?
Give me a reason for leaving
A reason your heart turned to stone
Now it's so cold
You saw me standing with tears in my eyes
And then you turned out the lights
Lights, you turned out the lights
Lights, why'd you turn out the lights?
We at the point of no return
There ain't no coming back
When it comes to love you
Never know how to react
Gotta keep your head up
You can't live in the past
I know you feel bad but it goes in a flash
We at the point of no return
There ain't no coming back
When it comes to love you
Never know how to react
Gotta keep your head up
You can't live in the past
I know you feel bad but it goes in a flash
Where are you now and why did you go?
Give me a reason for leaving
The reason your heart turned to stone
Now it's so cold
You saw me standing with tears in my eyes
And then you turned out the lights
(The lights, the lights, the lights
The lights)
