The Blinding Lyrics

[Verse 2: Jay Electronica & JAY-Z]
The gift that keeps givin' like Babushka
Kush crushed up in the studio, rollin' Kate Bush up

Extra, extra, it's Mr. Headlines
Who signed every contract and missed the deadlines

40 days, 40 nights, tryna live up to the hype
It's the road less traveled, it's the one who missed the flights
Hov hit me up like, "What, you scared of heights?
Know your sister tired of workin', gotta do her something nice"

I'm like, "Don't he know I stay up for Falon late nights?"
She need bread, she need rice, she need threads, she need ice
Either tell it to my bank account or say it to the dice
When I lay down in my bed it's like my head in the vice
When I look inside the mirror all I see is flaws
When I look inside the mirror all I see is Mars
In the wee hours of night, tryna squeeze out bars
Bismillah, just so y'all could pick me apart?

[Chorus: Travis Scott]
Blinding
Blinded by the light
See the stars and our sun

[Outro]
(Hit-Boy)
(G. Ry got me)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
