Eddie Murphy - Red Light lyrics

rate me

Oh yo!

Red light, stop right, there where you are

Red light, stop right, there where you are

Right there where you are

Out of the frying pan into the fire

Burning down the people’s souls

My high anxiety is getting higher

Feels like I’m gonna blow yeah

Gone is the breeze that used to be so sweet

Poison is the wind that blows

It can’t be long the military come

With a knock, knock, knock on your door, alright

Red light, stop right, there where you are

This is a red light, stop right, there where you are

Stop there where you are

Gone, emancipation

Gone, race relation

Gone, most of you rebels are gone

Gone, the trust in nation

Gone, the time we’re wasting

Gone, the people’s patience is gone

Oh Lord!

Broken economy

The streets are dying even more than before

I need some betterness to take me higher

Feels like I’m gonna blow

Gone are the days

When people used to say everything is alright

No place to run, now here you come a come

With a knock, knock, knock on your door

Red light, stop right, there where you are

This is a red light, stop right, there where you are

Stop there where you are

Red light, stop right, there where you are

This is a red light, stop right, there where you are

Stop there where you are

Pick up the pieces,

Let it begin,

Cause this is the way that we flow

Higher and higher and higher we go

Through dedication,

Self-preservation...

Gone, Marcus Garvey, Montgomery, Martin

Gone, all the rebels are gone

Gone, we’ve lost our way

Gone, darkness is the day

Gone, most of the rebels are gone

Red light, red light uuuu, red light uuuu

We can ride, we can roll, we can breathe

We can talk, we can walk, we can stop

At the red light

We can smoke, we can do what we want

To be real with the blunt, we just stop

At the red light

We’ll stay true and be you

And be up way above

With no pushing or shoving

We can ride, we can roll, we can breathe

We can talk, we can walk, we’ll just stop

At the red light

We can smoke, we can do what we want

And be real with the blunt, we just stop

At the red light

We’ll stay true, and be you

And be up way above with no pushing or shoving

At the red light
