Blue Lights Lyrics

von Jorja Smith

I wanna turn those blue lights
Into strobe lights
Not blue flashing lights
Maybe fairy lights

Those blue lights (Blue lights)
Into strobe lights (Strobe lights)
Maybe even fairy lights (Fairy lights)
Not blue flashing lights

Don't you run when you hear the sirens coming
When you hear the sirens coming
You better not run 'cause the siren's not coming for you
What have you done?
You went to school that day
Was a bit late but it was a Monday
Kept after class for answering back
You apologized, any harm in that?

(I wanna turn those blue lights)
What have you done?
(Into strobe lights) There's no need to run
(Not blue flashing lights)
If you've done nothing wrong (Maybe fairy lights)
Blue lights should just pass you by

Gun crime into your right ear
Drugs and violence into your left
Default white headphones flooding the auditory
Subconscious waves you accept
You're sitting on the 4 back home
Where you at G? Answer your phone
Pause the poison to answer his message
Your boy sounds rushed fears for his adolescence

(I wanna turn those blue lights)
What have you done? (Into strobe lights)
There's no need to run (Not blue flashing lights)
If you've done nothing wrong (Maybe fairy lights)
Blue lights should just pass you by

Tall black shadow as you're getting off the bus
Shadow shows no emotion so what's even the fuss?
But the face of your boy casts a darker picture
Of the red handed act he's gonna whisper
Look blud I'm sorry 'cause I know you got my back
He was running I couldn't think I had to get out of that
Not long ago you were miming to the Shook Ones
Now this really is part two 'cause you're the shook one

Hands you the tool as you question your friendship
How's man like you gonna make me a convict?
Level of a felon when I've done nothing wrong
Blood on my hands but I don't know where it's from, oh
Oh, you got blood on your hands
But you don't know where it's from

You better run when you hear the sirens coming
When you hear the sirens coming
Better run when you hear the sirens coming
'Cause they will be coming for you
Run when you hear the sirens coming
Better run when you hear the sirens coming
When you hear the sirens coming
The blue lights are coming for you

(I wanna turn those blue lights)
What have you done? (Into strobe lights)
There's no need to run (Not blue flashing lights)
If you've done nothing wrong (Maybe fairy lights)
Blue lights should just pass you by

Blud, when you hear the sirens coming
Don't you run when you hear the sirens coming
Blud, when you hear the sirens coming
Don't you run when you hear the sirens coming
What have you d-d-d-done?
Don't you run
Don't you run
Don't you run when you hear the sirens coming
