A remix of Lil' Kim's track 'Lighters Up' by Canadian Hip-Hop artist Daybreak.

lyrics

Welcome to East Van where the fiends are slanging
Not the type of place you want to be hanging
Unless you got cash in hand and be clear about what you demanding
Is it rock, powder, bumps or grams man?
Bitch state your purpose and don’t look nervous
Otherwise your cash money is worthless, this ain’t customer service
You looking like a pig on the surface and cops don’t protect and serve us
They here to observe us, so keep it on the low now
Show me cash in hand, take it slow now
Or it’s gonna go down, ain’t nobody to trust in Old Town
Moving jib by the pound and sold out
Stay dirty and lowdown with a fist of iron
But split when we hear them sirens
You can find me on the corner with these blocks of yay
Fuck around your body found three blocks away (Vancouver)

Now put your lighters up
Eastside
Put your lighters up
Yo west end
Put your lighters up
And all my people
Keep putting your lighters up
Seoul city
Put your lighters up
In Berlin
Put your lighters up
Barcelona
Keep putting the lighters up
Around the world
Put your lighters up

Lighters up now spark that spliff
I’m the reason that the seasons exist
I’m coming in through the mist, convert the masses as I smash and resist
And till the day I cash out I’ma stay lit and it’s a hell of a trip
It’s Van city and we steering the ship
Cops ask, we ain’t telling em shit, we grab the baggie and split
Then hit the corner cause it has to be flipped
We stay heavy handed and tight-lipped
It’s time to ignite this deadly melody for the righteous
They can try, there’s no way to fight this
It’s the will of Osiris, we spreading like a terminal virus
In your last breath regret you tried us
Master flow riders with an ounce in hand
Blazing Js as we trounce your band so y’all can bounce just scram
Day the man with the master plan so y’all can bounce to this master jam
Like this (Van city)

Put your lighters up
Montreal
Put your lighters up
In T-Dot
Put your lighters up
Yo everybody
Keep putting your lighters up
In Ethiopia
Put your lighters up
Yo New York
Put your lighters up
Las Vegas
Keep putting the lighters up
Around the world
Put your lighters up

We stay lifted, Daybreak awake I’m God’s gifted
Last leader of the resistance
Always sipping on liquids full of alcohol to stay twisted
Take the gin, tonic and mix it
This is sheer persistence Erase MCs from existence
They built for sprints, I run the distance
And in case you missed it, I’m the best there is
Ain’t nobody wanna test this kid
So y’all can place your bids on who the last man standing
Others follow while I’m commanding
Flow beyond understanding spit wisdom as my mind expanding
In my kingdom all the minions keep chanting
“Daybreak the chosen” master of the mic I’m holding
Beats, rhymes, verses that are exploding
You get curses from Odin and all my false idols are golden
All in while the others keep folding, They can only keep hoping (yeah)

Put your lighters up
Quebec city
Put your lighters up
Yo Mumbai
Put your lighters up
L.A
Keep putting your lighters up
On Van Island
Put your lighters up
Beijing
Put your lighters up
If you with me
Keep putting the lighters up
Around the world
Put your lighters up
