Lyrics:
Where I come from I’ve seen things that you wouldn’t believe But once your heart is there, you can never leave I wrote this here for everyone to see It was calling me, kept calling me
Even in darkness Me and my fam from the dungeon found that light And even in darkness Despite what was wrong, everything’s gonna be alright
Said whoa, when it gets real cold We got fire and that’s music to my soul Said whoa, when the lights get low We burn brighter and that’s music to my soul Even in darkness
Well look at me now, I’m everything that I wanted to be But once your heart is there, you can never leave A star in the sky for everyone to see You can follow me, follow me
Even in darkness Me and my fam from the dungeon found that light And even in darkness Despite what was wrong, everything turned out alright
Said whoa, when it gets real cold We got fire and that’s music to my soul Said whoa, when the lights get low We burn brighter and that’s music to my soul
Well we got Jo and Mo and Gipp and ‘Lo And yes Big Rube, and Backbone, Organ No is Pat, Rico and Ray And we’ve got the Witchdoctor and yes Cool Breeze And all the young homies from the dungeon east I can’t forget my brothers, Big and Dre
Even in darkness Me and my fam from the dungeon found that light And even in darkness Despite what was wrong, everything turned out alright
Said whoa, when it gets real cold We got fire and that’s music to my soul Said whoa, when the lights get low We burn brighter and that’s music to my soul Said whoa, when it gets real cold We got fire and that’s music to my soul Said whoa, when the lights get low We burn brighter and that’s music to my soul Said whoa
