"Illuminate" lyrics
(feat. Phil Adè)
[Wale:]
Blue moon, blue moon
There's a goddess living in you
Had to travel 'round the whole world
Got so many crews
Blue moon, blue moon
Will you illuminate and make moves
Will you illuminate for the world
Faith is in you
[Phil Adè:]
Say that movement moving music oozing out my pores
Was the poorest, now suicide doors on the phantom
But that Porsche in my future
Future bottles of rosé, now I'm juiced up
Cruised up New York Avenue, me and Ralph in the sprinter
We do festivals for lunchtime, club hoes for dinner
Bread winners, now we eating
Long way from sleeping at bus stops out Wheaton
Long way from carrying that work on the China bus
Why the fuck you lying to us?
The shit you niggas talking is eons from the obvious
Beyonds want a bite of 'yas
But what's in this glove can turn this car to an army truck
Y'all don't want no part of us
Part of me feel like now I'm loosing myself
Ain't been sober in a week, I been abusing my health
Been wealthy, a heart born, a pocket like sand bred
EBM I finally made it, what you niggas made for?
[Wale:]
Blue moon, blue moon
There's a goddess living in you
Had to travel 'round the whole world
Got so many crews
Blue moon, blue moon
Will you illuminate and make moves
Will you illuminate for the world
Faith is in you
And they saw how I came up, girl
And they I saw how I change up, no
And they know they can't touch me
And they know they can't fuck with me
And they saw how I came up, girl
And they I saw how I change up, no
And you know they can't touch me
No, no, you can't fuck with me
Wale
How can I say to 'ya
She keep you at bay, you made her bae nigga
And Dr. Miami sure did his thing with 'ya
Because you got a perky set with a pain killer
And a flip a hyperbole
Burn this shit to a third degree
Everything thing here, 'woo'!
I'm sipping, murdering everything, every girl that's in Maryland
Love me hate me, want to marry me
Man this shit change quick
Haters on my dick
Quit your bitching, the bicker bicker, fuck all opinions on
Call my hitters 'brrruh-rut-tut-tut', and leave them missing, yeah
Beat the message, won't kick my feet up ‘till we is winning
All my people down, I should probably feed them anti-depressants
From a capo to a boss, yeah
I'm a moon, you is just a star, oh
I won't lose what I work hard for
But it do weigh on my heart though
I was modest and ignored
So I called up, Mr. Flawless to filled the void
Now, I got these diamonds on me dancing
I guess that will remind him who the man is
Everything fine when your chain glow
But you can't build no dynasty, unless your rings show, ya
Cole world, word to Jermaine
Rest in Peace to Bo, ya we both knew Carrolton trained
He was a boxer, me I talk with a lot of moxie
And when he passed, I put his passion in my body
Catch a body, anybody in my arm reach
That be Ardmore, Glenarden, right beside me
Salute
Big moves because they'll come through
So I do this shit for my fam and also my crew
Who the fuck is you
Blue moon, blue moon
There's a goddess living in you
Had to travel 'round the whole world
Got so many crews
Blue moon, blue moon
Will you illuminate and make moves
Will you illuminate for the world
Faith is in you
Blue moon, blue moon
There's a goddess living in you
Had to travel 'round the whole world
Got so many crews
Blue moon, blue moon
Will you illuminate and make moves
Will you illuminate for the world
Faith is in you
