"Lighthouse"
(feat. Dice Raw)

[Intro: Dice Raw]
If you can't swizzim then ya
bound to drizzown
Passing out life jackets bout to
go didown
Get down with the captain or go
down with the ship
Before the dark abyss I'm gon'
hit you wit' dis
[repeat]
[Hook: Dice Raw]
And no one's in the lighthouse
You're face down in the ocean
And no one's in the lighthouse
And it seems like you just
screamed
It's no one there to hear the
sound
And it may feel like there's no
one there
That cares if you drown
Face down in the ocean
[Verse 1: Dice Raw]
Smoking cheap weed sipping on
cheap vodka
You pick your poison down
Davey Jones' locker
It's rum we be wanting
By the tons my consumption
Take a look at my lungs and my
liver
It's disgusting
Take a look at the man in the
mirror
We start fussing
Only one person gets hurt when
throwing the punches - me
And the man behind the glass
just laughs
The waves come over my head
and just crash
My hand start bleeding water
starts receding
A feeling comes into my heart I
start believing that
I actually might survive through
the evening
Survive on my own thoughts of
suicide that's competing
With thoughts of tryna stay alive
which been weakened
By the feeling of putting on a
smile while being beaten
The fear of drowning still diving
in the deep end
The waters carried me so far you
can't reach 'em
And it feels like there's no one
[Hook: Dice Raw]
No one's in the lighthouse
You're face down in the ocean
And no one's in the lighthouse
And it seems like you just
screamed
It's no one there to hear the
sound
And it may feel like there's no
one there
That cares if you drown
Face down in the ocean
[Verse 2: Black Thought]
After the love is lost
Friendship dissolves
And even blood is lost
Where did it begin
The way we did each other
wrong
Troubled water neither one of us
could swim across
I stopped holding my breath
Now I am better off
There without a trace
And you in my head
All the halted motion of a rebel
without a pause
What it do is done till you dead
and gone
The grim reaper telling me to
swim deeper
Where the people go to lo and
behold the soul keeper
I'm not even breaking out in a
sweat
Or cold fever but
I'm never paying up on my debt
or tolls either
I'll leave the memories here I
won't need them
If I stop thinking and lie, now
that's freedom
Your body's part of the Maritime
museum
Face down in the past is where
I'm being
[Hook: Dice Raw]
And no one's in the lighthouse
You're face down in the ocean
And no one's in the lighthouse
And it seems like you just
screamed
It's no one there to hear the
sound
And it may feel like there's no
one there
That cares if you drown
Face down in the ocean
[Outro: Dice Raw]
If you can't swizzim then ya
bound to drizzown
Passing out life jackets bout to
go didown
Get down with the captain or go
down with the ship
Before the dark abyss I'm gon'
hit you wit' dis
[repeat]
