LIGHTS OUT Lyrics – BIA & JID



Soundtrack Album: Bad Boys: Ride Or Die
LIGHTS OUT Text
When the light's out
Still can see me shining, I'm a lighthouse
Lights out, Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
When it's dark out
I'll show you the way 'cause I'm a lighthouse
Lights out, Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?


Uh, I'm as ready as I'll ever be
Doing things that better me
How you supposed to make it out the block if you don't ever leave?
How you supposed to make it out the job if you don't ever see big?
Picture all those wolves out hеre made of sheep skin
Picture all my еnemis tryna be friends
Picture me tryna lead than follow these trends
Pen in hand, but the words from my soul
First rap b**ch you know that went back and forth with Cole
They abusing trust, almost through with love
Take my cue to go, I'm moving up
Wasn't due to luck, this was really owed
I know you from, elementary, really, no we don't
Lights was out in my mama house, but we used the stove
French tips to my toes, down to the cuticle
Life's hard, but its beautiful
I been letting go of people I done made excuses for
I'm just human though, I think I need more light than usual


When the light's out
Still can see me shining, I'm a lighthouse
Lights out, Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
When it's dark out
I'll show you the way 'cause I'm a lighthouse
Lights out, Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Lights out
Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm
Lights out

I got my top way back and my beat down low
We put so much in the grind 'cause we was on the ground floor
Got a foot inside the game, so now, we kicking down the door
Niggas be clowns, you can't come around no more
On this railroad smoking, but we ain't underground no more
Been tryna push the sound, you know, surround the whole globe
The dough was lost and found, you know, I figured out a way to dig it out
I seen the hate and I should slap the taste from out you niggas mouth

I've seen your light shine brighter than a pot of gold
But you gotta feel the rain to see the rainbows
Guided by guardian angels
Goblins, goons, Oh God, we in danger
Stars and the moon, I'm harvesting painful thoughts in my brain
I'm looking for a change, I need it right now
I dropped my anchor near a dock and found a lighthouse
I know it's dark, but you can see me


When the light's out
Still can see me shining, I'm a lighthouse
Lights out, Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
When it's dark out
I'll show you the way 'cause I'm a lighthouse
Lights out, Are you ready?
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Lights out


Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm
Lights out
Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm
Lights out

Artist Info:

American rapper, singer, and musician Bia is very charming and constantly full of energy on stage. Her participation in the reality TV program "Sisterhood of Hip Hop" brought her notoriety. Hip-hop and trap elements permeate most of BIA's songs, demonstrating how adaptable her voice and lyrics can be. Her self-assured and audacious demeanor in the music business has won her several collaborations with various musicians. American rapper and composer JID is under contract with Dreamville Records, owned by J. Cole. His deft wording and fast delivery are well-known. JID initially became well-known for his rapid flow and intricate lyrical topics on his first studio album, "The Never Story." Usually drawing from his own experiences, his songs address social concerns and his time in the rap industry.

Annotations and Meaning:

Strong vocal choruses by BIA, who compares herself as a "lighthouse," open the song. This represents direction, and visibility in the dark, which highlights leadership and perseverance. Are you ready? is a question asked several times while dangling in the air. It is an invitation to prepare for the experience by seeing oneself correctly, better than others can or do.
When the light's out / Still can see me shining, I'm a lighthouse
The opening lines set the tone for the song, emphasizing that even without external light, BIA's inner strength and presence will shine through. The lighthouse metaphor continues to represent stability and guidance. JID's verse delves into themes of ambition, growth, and overcoming obstacles. He reflects on the necessity of leaving one's comfort zone to achieve success, as highlighted by:
How you supposed to make it out the block if you don't ever leave?
He acknowledges the struggle of staying true to oneself amidst external pressures and deceptive appearances. JID's reference to collaborating with J. Cole underscores his credibility and achievements in the rap industry.
First rap bitch you know that went back and forth with Cole
BIA's second verse focuses on personal growth and resilience. She talks about letting go of toxic relationships and taking control of her life. The line:
Lights was out in my mama house, but we used the stove
JID's second verse continues with a blend of metaphorical and literal expressions. He talks about the journey and effort needed to succeed, along with dealing with fake friends and adversaries. The reference to a lighthouse near the end of his verse ties back to the central theme of guidance and hope.
I dropped my anchor near a dock and found a lighthouse
This speaks of finding stability and direction amid chaos, therefore reinforcing the song's message as one of resilience and leadership.
