Dontae Amare - Light in Me

I hope that you still see the light in me
If I'm not perfect then you never had to be
All my life I've done all that you've asked of me
My only was purpose was to be or not to be
That's probably why I speak on things so passionately
And if I act aggressive it's not passively
I've been changing not too fast but rather gradually
I'm just tryna prevent a loss or a casualty

In actuality I've been feeling amazing
Spreading love like it's contagious
I had to learn that being a man is more than being courageous
It's knowing your weakness and limitations
Then from that point on choosing a new destination
And reconciliation after devastation
Once you learn to turn your failures into motivations
Then you can replace your aspirations with manifestations
I no longer feel the degradation
My higher self and lower self got tired of all the separations
Would you leave without causation or a explanation
Is this more or did I fall short of your expectations
You know I'm built and stand on action over conversations
Also another thing I learned was that a man handles the complications
Not for a reward or any reparations
But due to this fact his lungs are undergoing respiration
I wear these pin badges on my chest like decorations
I told you who I what's my reputation
We would openly carry guns before the registrations
Old burners long over due in need of restoration
She remember lonely nights and morning lacking adoration
I remember niggas dying trying find some information
I'm irregular I don't do well with rules and regulations
As a people we lacking love for more than generations
Either than or we're lacking organization.
Court appointees lost my niggas and cases
For a bad representation
Of our ancestral communications
The stone that the builder refused
Is now the very foundation
Knowing truth the helps you decide without the hesitations
If I've said it in private then this is my proclamation
A life can never die it's in your DNA and constellation
Just look for the light within to find a conformation so

I hope that you still see the light in me
If I'm not perfect then you never had to be
All my life I've done all that you've asked of me
My only was purpose was to be or not to be
That's probably why I speak on things so passionately
And if I act aggressive it's not passively
I've been changing not too fast but rather gradually
I'm still tryna prevent a loss or a casualty
