The Light Lyrics
Yeah.. 
Doo-doo-doo, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm.. 
Doo-doo-d-doo, diggy-doo YO.. 
I never knew a luh, luh-luh, a love like this 
Gotta be somethin for me to write this 
Queen, I ain't seen you in a minute 
Wrote this letter, and finally decide to send it 
Signed sealed delivered for us to grow together 
Love has no limit, let's spend it slow forever 
I know your heart is weathered by what studs did to you 
I ain't gon' assault em cause I probably did it too 
Because of you, feelings I handle with care 
Some niggaz recognize the light but they can't handle the glare 
You know I ain't the type to walk around with matchin shirts 
If relationship is effort I will match your work 
I wanna be the one to make you happiest, it hurts you the most 
They say the end is near, it's important that we close.. 
.. to the most, high 
Regardless of what happen on him let's rely 
There are times.. when you'll need someone.. 
I will be by your side.. 
There is a light, that shines, 
special for you, and me.. 
Yo, yo, check it 
It's important, we communicate 
and tune the fate of this union, to the right pitch 
I never call you my bitch or even my boo 
There's so much in a name and so much more in you 
Few understand the union of woman and man 
And sex and a tingle is where they assume that it land 
But that's fly by night for you and the sky I write 
For in these cold Chi night's moon, you my light 
If heaven had a height, you would be that tall 
Ghetto to coffee shop, through you I see that all 
Let's stick to understandin and we won't fall 
For better or worse times, I hope to me you call 
So I pray everyday more than anything 
friends will stay as we begin to lay 
this foundation for a family - love ain't simple 
Why can't it be anything worth having you work at annually 
Granted we known each other for some time 
It don't take a whole day to recognize sunshine 
There are times.. when you'll need someone.. 
I will be by your side, oh darling 
There is a light, that shines, 
special for you, and me.. 
Yeah.. yo, yo, check it 
It's kinda fresh you listen to more than hip-hop 
and I can catch you in the mix from beauty to thrift shop 
Plus you ship hop when it's time to, thinkin you fresh 
Suggestin beats I should rhyme to 
At times when I'm lost I try to find you 
You know to give me space when it's time to 
My heart's dictionary defines you, it's love and happiness 
Truthfully it's hard tryin to practice abstinence 
The time we committed love it was real good 
Had to be for me to arrive and it still feel good 
I know the sex ain't gon' keep you, but as my equal 
it's how I must treat you 
As my reflection in light I'ma lead you 
And whatever's right, I'ma feed you 
Digga-da, digga-da, digga-da, digga-digga-da-da 
Yo I tell you the rest when I see you, peace 
There are times.. when you'll need someone.. 
I will be by your side.. 
There is a light, that shines, 
special for you, and me.. 
(I'll) take my chances.. before they pass.. 
.. pass me by, oh darling.. 
You need to look at the other side.. 
You'll agree..
