[Verse 1]
Simplified love-sick, taking no prisoners
Sunny day, cold heart, listen up listeners
Dark side love affair out of time and in the rush
You can't hold it until the sun rise settin up
Let's levitate up over the horizon
I can see it in your eyes
Everything you're hiding
I can see the truth in you
Even when you're lying, even through the darkness
I can see you shining

[Hook]
When it's midnight and it's colder
Pull you closer I can see you through
When it's sunshine and it's solar
And it's over it's just me and you

[Post-Hook]
Blood, By, Sun, Light (Blood, By, Sun)

[Verse 2]
A played out love song playing in the background
Seems to describe every part of where were at now
Every feeling that we ever had for each other
Every karaoke love letter, lyrics undiscovered
Now your mother used to tell me you ain't nothin' but some trouble
Now some couple trouble makers making mayhem on the double
Tryna figure out the meaning and break apart the puzzles
Why they love you when I hate you when they hate the way I love you, solar

[Hook]
When it's midnight and it's colder
Pull you closer I can see you through
When it's sunshine and it's solar
And it's over it's just me and you
When it's midnight and it's colder
Pull you closer I can see you through
When it's sunshine and it's solar
And it's over it's just me and you

[Post-Hook]
Blood, By, Sun, Light
Blood, By, Sun, Light (Come on!)
Blood, By, Sun, Light

[Verse 3]
A complicated heartbreak losing its direction
Cold day, warm heart--object of affection
My dark side love affair come to my protection
Midnight's on the way I'm losing my connection
Levitate up over the horizon
I can see it in your eyes, I know that you?re hiding
I can see the truth in you even I know that you're lying
Throw away the darkness, I wanna see you shining

[Hook]
When it's midnight and it's colder
Pull you closer I can see you through
When it's sunshine and it's solar
And it's over it's just me and you
When it's midnight and it's colder
Pull you closer I can see you through
When it's sunshine and it's solar
And it's over it's just me and you
When it's midnight and it's colder (Blood, By)
Pull you closer I can see you through (Sun, Light)
When it's sunshine and it's solar
And it's over it's just me and you
When it's midnight and it's colder (Blood, By)
Pull you closer I can see you through (Sun, Light)
When it's sunshine and it's solar
And it's over it's just me and you

Lupe Fiasco

The Chicago born Wasalu Muhammad Jaco first tasted success when he featured on Kanye West’s hit “Touch the Sky”, a track that shortly preceded his real breakout, his 2006 debut album Lupe Fiasco’s Food & Liquor, and he never looked back. He has established himself as one of the greatest urban wordsmiths of all time, with Genius even dubbing him the ‘Proust of Rap’.

While he’s now regarded of one of the 21st Century’s Hip-Hop greats, he wasn’t always a fan of the genre, initially disliking it due to the prominence of vulgarity and misogyny within it. In his late teens, he aspired to make it as a lyricist. In his early twenty’s, he met Jay-Z, who helped him sign with Atlantic Records in 2005. The following year, he released his debut album (Lupe Fiasco’s Food & Liquor), which was met with acclaim from fans and critics alike, as did his sophomore effort, Lupe Fiasco’s The Cool.

The following eight years of his career saw far less output than many would’ve anticipated. This can be partly attributed to his struggles with Atlantic Records. The executives wanted him to sign a 360 deal; however, as he refused to do so they instead shelved his already completed 3rd album, Lasers, and wouldn’t promote him as they had previously. The overseers at the label also interfered with his music (as they had tried to do with his fan-favorite track “Dumb it Down”); subsequently effecting the quality and sound of his third and fourth albums.
