Lit Me Up

[Intro]
Thought I had too much on my plate (too much)
Every little problem felt great, in the worst way
Kept saying, "this must be a mistake"
Talking like that pain was my name tag
[Verse 1]
I was drowning in lies
Scroll glow in my eyes
Telling everybody "I'm fine"
When I barely survived
Wouldn’t put down my pride
Sharp tongue, cold replies
Heart heavy like it’s zip-tied
To the mess in my mind (yah)
Running from the mirror, couldn’t face that
Blamed the whole world, wrote the same track
Dark in my chest like a flashback
Tried to drink it down, but it came back
[Chorus]
That's when He lit me up
Right there in the crash, in the cut
Pulled me from the mud, from the flood
I was lost in the smoke, in the buzz
That's when He lit me up
Hit my shadow with a holy touch
Turned my "never" to "enough"
Turned my "maybe" into trust
That's when He lit me up
[Verse 2]
Yeah, pockets light but the soul rich (soul rich)
Used to chase every short fix, long list
Of the times that I folded, I broke quick
Told Him, "if You real, then show it" (show it)
Then peace dropped heavy in the chaos
Like a seatbelt lock in a spinout
He ain’t change the storm, brought a way out
Had to let my fake crown fall, that’s a trade-off
Now I’m cutting off the lies at the root, huh (snip)
Friends still stuck in the loop, huh
They say, "bro, what changed you?"
I just point up, say, "Truth, bruh" (BANZ)
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
My brother was taken from at ah Yung age wish he would have stayed... free my brother Cecil is what I'm asking God for now he paid with most of his life I'm hoping that you free him we miss and love him 

rap, Moody trap-rap with airy pads and a bell lead over a swung, head-nodding beat; verses ride a tight, conversational flow with ad-libs tucked in the sides, chorus opens up with layered, melodic rap vocals and a wider stereo field. 808s hit deep but leave space for fast hi-hats and occasional reverse effects; final hook adds extra harmonies and drops some drums for a lift.
