Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(Oh-oh, the light)
(Oh-oh, the light)
(Oh-oh, the light)
(Oh-oh, the light)
[Verse 2]
(Oh-oh, the light)
(Oh-oh, the light)
We don't know where we going
We don't know where we going
(Oh-oh, the light)
(Oh-oh, the light)
[Verse 3]
Aye, look around, it's all dark
All black everything
Like the Million Man March
And I'm talking 'bout everything
Dark heart, dark souls
Dark minds writing dark flow
Can I get a little light though?
Is there something I can fight for?
[Verse 4]
Aye, we so blind, we don't know
On that highway we go
Go full speed ahead
Flying but we low
But we don't know just what He got in store
No more valley floor, that okie-doe
No peeking, give us sight for things we never saw before
[Verse 5]
Till that light get to glowing
We don't know where we going
But there ain't no Google Map for life
And it's like our headlights are broken
Proof
We flashing, passing on some treasure that's golden
For some nickel and copper, tryna get glory that's stolen
[Verse 6]
And reaping what we sowing
Aye, we all got dreams, this is mine
I'm praying that he'll flip that switch and shine
Kids are blind
We know You got it
Lord, we know You got it
Only You can take us higher
You the pilot
Lights please
[Verse 7]
(Oh, the light)
(Oh, the light)
(Oh, the light)
(Oh, the light)
Lights please
[Verse 8]
We don't know where we going
We so far from my home
We don't know where we going
Blackout, no powers on
We don't know where we going
My home is gone
They need You to show 'em
So turn them lights on
[Verse 9]
We don't know where we going
We so far from my home
We don't know where we going
Blackout, no powers on
We don't know where we going
Until we go where living water is flowing
So turn them lights on
[Verse 10]
I was walking alone
Down the dark alley, wish I coulda known
I was locked in a box
With blinders blocking my sight of the throne
Was plotting on others
Instead of relying on God, I was gone
But my mind, it was blown
When He shined that light in my home
[Verse 11]
Taking off my sleep mask
Full speed with the seats back
Now I can drive, headlights on
That steep cliff, I seen that
Detour, gotta turn around
Young lady, gotta turn her down
One-eighty, ain't perfect now
But I press on and I get stronger
[Verse 12]
Dear Lord, our people lost, you see the shooting, killing
Who let Lucifer loose?
We all are duped and willing
And he ain't through concealing
Glory from humans
We doomed to be in that tomb
And walk into our execution, man
[Verse 13]
Man, thank You for dragging me out that dark room
Your truth pierced through my heart
Like harpoons, no cartoon
It's a blackout
No light, just blackout
Please, give 'em grace
I know You got more light to pass out, aye
[Verse 14]
(Oh, the light)
(Oh, the light)
(Oh, the light)
(Oh, the light)
Lights please
[Verse 15]
We don't know where we going
We so far from my home
We don't know where we going
Blackout, no powers on
We don't know where we going
My home is gone
They need You to show 'em
So turn them lights on
[Verse 16]
We don't know where we going
We so far from my home
We don't know where we going
Blackout, no powers on
We don't know where we going
Until we go where living water is flowing
So turn them lights on
[Verse 17]
(So can you turn the lights on?)
(Can you turn the lights on for me?)
