Lyrics of 'Lighters (feat. Eminem & Royce da 5'9)' by Bruno Mars

This one's for you and me
Living out our dreams
We're all right where we should be
With my arms out wide
I open my eyes
And now
All I wanna see
Is a sky full of lighters
A sky full of lighters

By the time you hear this I will have already spiraled up
I would never do nothin' to let you cowards fuck my world up
If I was you I would duck or get struck like lighting
Fighters keep fighting, put your lighters up
Point 'em' skyward, uh!
Had a dream I was king
I woke up, still king
This rap game's nipple is mine for the milking
Till' nobody else even fucking feels me
Till' it kills me
I swear to God I'll be the fucking illest in the music
There is or there ever will be
Disagree? Feel free, but from now on I'm refusing to ever give up
Only thing I ever gave up's using
No more excuses
Excuse me if my head's too big for this building
And pardon me if I'm a cocky prick
But you cocks are slick
Poppin' shit on how you flipped ya life around, crock of shit
Who you dicks tryina kid?
Flipped dick, you did opposite
You stayed the same
'Cause cock backwards is still cock, you pricks
I love it when I tell'em shove it
Cause it wasn't that long ago when Marshall sat flustered
Lacked luster 'cause couldn't cut mustard
Muster up nothin', brain fuzzy
'Cause he's buzzin'
Woke up from that buzz, now you wonder
Why he does it? How he does it
Wasn't cause he had buzzards circlin' round his head
Waiting for him to drop dead, was it?
Or was it cause them bitches wrote him off?
Little hussy-ass suzzes
Fuck it
Guess it doesn't matter now, does it?
What difference it make?
What's it take
To get it through your thick skulls that this ain't some bullshit
People don't usually come back this way
From a place that was as dark as I was in
Just to get to this place
Now let these words be like a switch blade to a hater's rib cage
And let it be known that from this day forward
I wanna just say thanks
Cause your hate is what gave me the strength
So let 'em Bics raise
'Cause I came with 5'9''
But I feel like I'm 6'8''

This one's for you and me
Living out our dreams
We're all right where we should be
With my arms out wide
I open my eyes
And now
All I wanna see
Is a sky full of lighters
A sky full of lighters

By the time you hear this I prolly already be outtie
I advance like going from totin' iron to goin' and buying
Four or five of the homies the Iron Man Audi
My daddy told me, slow down boy you're going to blow it
And I ain't gotta stop to beat a minute to tell Shady I love him
The same way that he did Dr. Dre on the Chronic
Tell him how real he is
Or how high I am
Or how I would kill for him, for him to know it
I cried plenty tears
My daddy got a bad back
So it's only right that I write till he can march right
Into that post office and tell 'em to hang it up
Now his career's Lebron's jersey in twenty years
I'll stop when I'm at the very top
You shitted on me on your way up
It's 'bout to be a scary drop
Cause what goes up
Must come down
You goin' down
On somethin' you don't wanna see
Like a hairy box
Every hour
Happy hour now
Life is wacky now
Used to have to eat the cat to get the pussy
Now I'm just a cat's meow, ow
Outclass the count
Always down for the catchweight
Like Pacquiao
Y'all are doomed
I remember when T-Pain ain't wanna work with me
My car starts itself
Parks itself
And auto-tunes
Cause now I'm in the Aston
I went from having my city locked up
To getting treated like Kwame Kilpatrick
And now I'm fantastic
Compare it to a weed high
And y'all niggas just gossipin' like bitches
On a radio and TV
See me, we fly
Y'all buggin out like Wendy Williams
Starin' at a bee-hive
And how real is that?
I remember signing my first deal
Now I'm the second best
I can deal with that
Now Bruno can show his ass
Without the MTV awards gag

You and I know what it's like
To be kicked down
Forced to fight
But tonight
We're alright
So hold up your lights
Let it shine
'Cause-

This one's for you and me
Living out our dreams
We're all right where we should be
With my arms out wide
I open my eyes
And now
All I wanna see
Is a sky full of lighters
A sky full of lighters
