Lyrics Eddie Murphy

Eddie Murphy

Red Light

Oh yeah!

Redlight

Stop right there where you are

Redlight

Stop right there where you are

(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

Gone is the breeze that used to be so sweet

Poison is the wind that blows

It can’t be long till the military come

With a knock, knock, knock on your door

Alright

Redlight

Stop right there where you are

This is a redlight

Stop right there where you are

(Stop there where you are)

(Gone) Emancipation

(Gone) Race relation

(Gone) Most of the rebels are gone

(Gone) The trust in nation

(Gone) The time we’re wastin’

(Gone) The people’s patience is gone

Broken economy, the streets are dire

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

Redlight. Stop right there where you are

This is a redlight. Stop right there where you are

(Stop there where you are)

Redlight. Stop right there where you are

Redlight. 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 Hailie (high) Selassie (high)

(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

Redlight

Redlight

Redlight

We can ride, we can roll, we can breathe

We can talk, we can walk, we can stop

At the redlight

We can smoke, we can do what we want

And be real with the blunt, we just stop

At the redlight

We’ll stay true, and be you

And be up way above with no pushin’ or shovin’

We can ride, we can roll, we can breathe

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

At the redlight

We can smoke, we can do what we want

And be real with the blunt, we just stop

At the redlight

We’ll stay true, and be you

And be up way above with no pushin’ or shovin’

Redlight
