:Craig:

Dee and I are back in Cali to hear the full song of In The City. He actually invited me to hear the songs before it's official release. Being back with Chris is like a Kodak moment. You had to be there to capture it. There were a few other other people in the room with him besides me, him, and Dee. Oh, and I put on a couple of my songs yesterday. I was nervous but people seem to fuck with it.

"Yo wassup, Craig," he greeted.

"Hey! Good to be back!"

"Always my pleasure. Once again I wanna thank you for being apart of this project. You are a true talent and I appreciate you," he thanked.

"Thank you so much,"

"No problem. Let's get this thang started!"

I sat down on the recliner and Dee sat on my lap. He played the song and someone dimmed the lights.

Ooh-ooh)
(Ah, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
(Ah, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
(Ah, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
(Ah, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
(Ah, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
(Ah, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
(Ah, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
(Ah, ooh-ooh)

If it was any more clearer than it is right now, prolly be see-through
Wouldn't be lethal, we would still be cool, hand over heart
If we could change the way that it all plays out, make the score equal
This would be a sequel, but it ain't in the cards (No way)

I can't even tell you when it changed
But I'm a stranger to this place (Oh)

And this used to be our town, our town
But look at it now
It ain't no love when the lights go out in the city (Yeah, yeah)
It's like we're burnin' it down, it down
Wish that I found
I guess it ain't no love when thе lights go out in the city

Damn, got me like
Oh-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, oh-oh
Ain't no, ain't no lights in thе city (Oh)
I swear I'm like
Oh-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, oh-oh
Ain't no, ain't no lights in the city, damn

Funny what you remember when it all goes down, quickly reminded
Remember you smilin', damn, I ain't seen that smile in a while
I miss that, baby, no lie
Wish we could go back, baby, one time
One time, but I, I know we'd never let go, ooh

I can't even tell you when it changed
But I'm a stranger to this place, yeah (Woah)

And this used to be our town, our town (Our town)
But look at it now (No love)
It ain't no love when the lights go out in the city (Ain't no, oh, yeah, yeah)
It's like we're burnin' it down, it down
Wish that I found (I guess)
I guess it ain't no love when the lights go out in the city

Damn, got me like
Oh-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, oh-oh
Ain't no, ain't no lights in the city (No lights, woah)
I swear I'm like
Oh-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, oh-oh (No, no, no, no)
Oh-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, oh-oh (No, woah-woah)
Ain't no, ain't no lights in the city, damn

Swear I've tried, I've tried
Tryin' to find my way to you, back to us
And I've tried (Oh), I've tried
Tryin' to find my way to you, right back to us
'Cause this used to be

And this used to be our town, our town (Damn)
But look at it now
It ain't no love when the lights go out in the city (Yeah, yeah)
It's like we're burnin' it down, it down
Wish that I found
I guess it ain't no love when the lights go out in the city
