von Lin‐Manuel Miranda

A Light Or Somethin' Songtext

Hey, the cops are gone
You got a light or something?
No
Why you being so quiet in the subway tunnel?
What do you think, I bite or something?
Let′s just keep moving until Union Square
Where?
Off the street, underground, where it's safe

Can you make me a warrior?
I don′t think you'd like initiation
Inituate me, I'm a fuckin′ warrior
Gotta get to Union Square before the cops reach the station
So what you wanna do?
Jump me into the crew?
Well, you′re split from the Orphans
Are you loyal?
I'm loyal to you


What′s wrong? Kiss me
You know, from the moment we came uptown, everything's gone wrong
Let′s just keep walking

If I'm everything wrong, why′d you keep me along?
Tell me
Why stick up for a stranger, in spite of the danger?
Tell me
I followed the night just to be in your corner
So where we goin'?
I'd fight by your side
I would stay in your corner
And you know it

Look at me
What in the hell are you looking for?
Look at me
I′m by your side, what you looking for?
We got life, just this one life
And I want to live, not just live to survive
Look at me
God, let me know what you′re looking for


Don't know what you want from me
Don′t know what you think you see in me
Don't know why you hauntin′ me
Do you want some different scenery?
Don't tell me you believe in me
You don′t even know me
You're lonely
You'll be just as lonely in Coney, look

I′ve been in and out of juvie
Livin′ in a kind of horror movie
She gets killed if she sits still
But her sixth skill keeps moving
Gotta keep moving
I was sleeping under the boardwalk
When the Warriors came and claimed me
Cleon took me in and named me Swan
Now Cleon's gone
And tonight can′t be undone
Nothing done can be undone

Look at me
Be careful
I'm broken
So don′t put your hope in me
What are you looking for?

Look at me
I'm beat up
I′m busted
Do not put your trust in me
Look at me

Mercy, what do you want me to say that you're beautiful?
'Cause I think we both know that you′re beautiful
You′re more than beautiful
You're more than your body
You′re more than these lips or this face
And if we ever somehow get out of this place

Then you'll go
Then we′ll go
Find something new
It's all new
Mercy, the light at the end of this tunnel′s got nothing on you

Keep walkin'
I think I see the light of somethin'
