Green Lights Are Gold by J. September Lyrics
Take me back, take me back to the place
Take me back, revamp, rewind, replace
Chase a number I guess, wait for the finale
Climb up the hill from out of the valley
Hit that Cali and wait for the day to come
When we will get out of this slum
Until then, flow wicked on the track
Sit back and pack dope into ziplock sacks
Crack a 40 of AP - take a sip and chill
I don’t need a nickelbag to get ill
And I don’t need no minute maid to get nice
Just whisky, grab the bottle, forget the ice
Alberta Premium is my medium
Self-medicate regulate intake for the tedium
Ruling the scene again, cerulean dream
Try to test me, nobody fooling my team
Back to school and it’s crystal clean hypeness
Back to rule, rocking mics with preciseness
Light this series of firework flashes
Our names in the sky surrounded by ashes
My master plan’s not completed
Until this bottle is depleted, call me conceited
But when I was needed to shed the light
Sped right through red lights to get ya fed tonight
Cause green lights are gold - Old Soul
Basking in the glow of a street light
Cold night - Green light go
Green lights are gold
Nothing but cold coffee and warm soda
She gave me her heart I tried to warn her
So when she hopped in the back of the black Jetta
Handed me white pages with black letters
I thought I’d rap better if I took a chance
This romance is like dance, a glance at the circumstance
The coincidence of meeting her insensibly
Yet certainly forms uncertainty from the intensity
Ostensibly we were an item back then
Density of emotion - Are we an item again?
Just friends, pretend that’s what I tell myself
As I take a swig, begin to spin, and try to sell myself
I’ve been performing, work the government
Sell liquor to those who wonder where their lovers went
Never finished school but now I got a union gig
Gunna run Freddy beach real soon you dig?
Plus, I got all these side occupations
Won’t stop ‘til I’m on top. ‘til I rock the nations
And she’s there and me guided by desire
To prove my value so I can be back inside her
Invite her back, I make a move
It’s too smooth, like a needle I’m in the groove
I’m in her veins and she can’t let go
It’s not hard to explain - green lights are gold
Green lights are gold - Old Soul
Basking in the glow of a street light
Cold night - Green light go
Green lights are gold
Take me back, revamp, rewind, replace
Chase a number I guess, wait for the finale
Climb up the hill from out of the valley
Hit that Cali and wait for the day to come
When we will get out of this slum
Until then, flow wicked on the track
Sit back and pack dope into ziplock sacks
Crack a 40 of AP - take a sip and chill
I don’t need a nickelbag to get ill
And I don’t need no minute maid to get nice
Just whisky, grab the bottle, forget the ice
Alberta Premium is my medium
Self-medicate regulate intake for the tedium
Ruling the scene again, cerulean dream
Try to test me, nobody fooling my team
Back to school and it’s crystal clean hypeness
Back to rule, rocking mics with preciseness

Our names in the sky surrounded by ashes

Until this bottle is depleted, call me conceited
