lyrics
So shine ya light it’s never Fadin’
Let’s live our life until it’s taken
Don’t hesitate the moves we Makin’
Let’s live our love until it’s Dangerous
Trent-Jean Verse:
I don't really know about you, but I know about me
How about I show you all things, that ya never really seen before
Somethings up, when you see me down
Black hair, Shades and I’ll break ya frown baby
Wanna be that number 1
Hit me up if you wanna run
Seat back and uh, lean back and uh
Puttin’ you down, while my CD’s on back
I don’t wanna be rude, I just wanna be real -
And Frankly I don’t just wanna see ya sweat!
So shine ya light it’s never Fadin’
Let’s live our life until it’s taken
Don’t hesitate the moves we Makin’
Let’s live our love until it’s Dangerous
Mimah Verse:
One by one as they fall to the waste side
All I hear is my name when I’m inside
My eyes are open, you’re talking
My legs wanna run but they just can’t stop walking
If you ever understand, do you ever come this way my love
I don’t have any other plans, but I don’t ever want to just give up
Babe are you gonna run away, or are you gonna sit and stay?
Shine your light, run a mile
Come and play
Middle 8:
Hit it down, hit me down - hit it down yeah
Black dress, silk + The Limousine Stares
Hit it up, hit me up - baby I’m there
Lickin’ on them lips
Cause you’re so damn rare
Burnin down the 6 cause ya so damn fire
Burnin down the 6 cause ya so damn fire
I don’t wanna be rude, I just wanna be real
And frankly,
I just wanna see you sweat!
So shine ya light it’s never Fadin’
Let’s live our life until it’s taken
Don’t hesitate the moves we Makin’
Let’s live our love until it’s Dangerous
Outro Vox:
Hit it down, hit me down - hit it down yeah
Black dress, silk + The Limousine Stares
Hit it up, hit me up - baby I’m there
Lickin’ on them lips
Cause ya so damn rare
Burnin down the 6 cause ya so damn fire
Burnin, burnin down the 6 cause ya so damn fire
Burnin down the 6 cause ya, Burnin down the 6 cause ya
Burnin down the 6 cause ya so damn fire
