Okay, lovelies, it’s #MusicMonday and I’m excited to bring you this song that I heard on the trailer for Bright, coming to Netflix this Friday, December 22nd. I am so excited to see it (watch the trailer here) because I love all of the magical / paranormal and this looks like such a creative take on it. And this song captured me as I watched the preview, and it apparently captured a lot of other people too as they posted asking about it! Enjoy!!
Lyrics
[Kiiara:]
Some days I can’t get out of my head,
that’s just the dark side of me.
Some nights, it’s hard for me to fall asleep,
that’s just the dark side of me.
If you ever ever call my name, name,
you will find out that we’re both the same.
When the lights go out, I need to know,
are you afraid of the dark?
I’m not afraid of the dark.
[Ty Dolla $ign:]
I am not afraid, I am not afraid (‘fraid).
Sick of the oppression and all the hate (hate).
Money and the power, social rank (rank).
Lot of pride now, not enough loyalty (ooh, yeah).
Had to change my life for the better things (yeah).
Had to boss up and overcome adversity (yeah).
I put my brother in position (in position),
I know some didn’t see the vision (see the vision),
I’m just livin’ by tradition.
And I’d die for my respect (respect…),
and I’d die for my Patek (‘tek, ‘tek…),
you might die for disrespect.
And I’m not afraid (‘fraid),
last time I checked, I ain’t ever been scared of nobody.
I wanna know when it get real (real),
who gon’ be out on the front line in the field (field)?
Who gon’ be there for the good times and the bad?
I’m already knowin’ ain’t nobody got my back.
[Kiiara & Ty Dolla $ign:]
Some days I close my eyes and fade away, (and I fade away…)
That’s just the dark side of me.
Some nights all the colors turn to grey, (some nights all the colors turn to grey)
Just like the dark side of me.
I’m not afraid of the dark!
[Future:]
I went way beyond anyone’s expectations.
Got the ‘Rarri turned on just in case we’re racin’,
I was already in the third gear by the time niggas hatin’,
who gon’ be in the field for me when I make it?
Started off in the trenches, how I’ma ever go pop?
Already on the moon, already with the goons,
already on shrooms (already on shrooms…).
I’m already on Easter, I’m already as a teacher.
Watch for the throne, I’m like Yeezus,
they tryna clone me, thinkin’ I don’t see ’em.
They take subliminal shots, thinkin’ we don’t hear ’em,
I’m one-of-a-kind, that’s how I’m gon’ kill ’em.
[Kiiara & Ty Dolla $ign:]
I’ve got a human heart, I’ve got a human heart,
are you afraid of the dark?
The dark, (the dark), the dark, (the dark), the dark?
I’ve got a human heart, I’ve got a human heart,
are you afraid of the dark?
The dark, (the dark), the dark, (the dark), the dark, (the dark)?
Some days I close my eyes and fade away, (and I fade away…)
That’s just the dark side of me.
Some nights all the colors turn to grey, (some nights all the colors turn to grey)
Just like the dark side of me.
I’m not afraid of the dark!
(The dark, the dark, the dark…)
I’m not afraid of the dark!
(The dark, the dark, the dark…)
I’m not afraid of the dark.
