NEW SINGLE "Blacklight" (+ lyrics)

I hope you all enjoyed Catch My Flight. I can now show you the second single from the upcoming album. Consider it my halloween present to all of you.

So, here's "Blacklight."
Blacklight by Chris Black

LYRICS
Uh, what if all we're seeing is a dream?
And everything you believe in aint what it seems?
Almost as if it was all backwards
And when you say 'goodbye,' those are your last words.
So when you die there aint another chapter
And science is our master but, more so, our pastor.
See I believe that when we leave our soul goes somewhere after,
I aint a monkey, I'm what God made to be a rapper.
A white kid musically inclined to meet the standards
Of the industry 'till the day that they call him history
Or so it seems; spittin poetry, knowing me
I'd plead 'I'm so far ahead, at least get to my shoulder please.'
Maybe I just wanna be able to say that I made it
But if there's a reason to say you hate it, this aint it, so save it.
Anything that comes into my mind-I'ma say it
In fact, I'm tired of this waiting taking my patience, so wake me.

I just can't see nothing at all.
I talk to walls.
But they don't talk back. It's all black. Where's the light?
No, they don't talk back. It's all black. Where's the light?
I live in a blacklight.
I live in a blacklight.

Girl, we really had it all.
But you left me among the stars.
And I don't know where you are.
Oh, and the earth seems so far away.
I need a bright new day, oh,
To help me stay away from the dark. I embark
On a dream, but it seems like it's haunted,
It's a nightmare, and you flaunt it. Where'd you go?
I was flyin' high a moment ago.
Oh, you left me blind and I

I just can't see nothing at all.

I talk to walls.
But they don't talk back. It's all black. Where's the light?
No, they don't talk back. It's all black. Where's the light?
I live in a blacklight.
I live in a blacklight.

It's dark. And I can't see.
I start to lose belief
In myself.
But LORD, I know you're here.
And now I see you clear.
And now I'm free.
