Lyrics to Riot / Northern Lights by Dawn Richard

Passion is the mob of the man
That commits a riot
Upon his reasons

Lets start a war
If they build a wall
Well tear it down
Burn it to the floor
Cant lock us out
Or keep us away

The smoke is in the ai-ir
The flames start to appear
Like bright lights every wher-re
Lets show that love is here

Lets start a riot
Give love a fighting chance
Its all or nothing
Well never let em turn us back
Lets start a ri-i-i-iot-ot
Lets start a ri-i-i-iot-i-i-iot
Lets start a ri-i-i-iot-ot
Lets start a ri-i-i-iot-i-i-iot

We've come to far
We watched them try to break us apart
But its in our hearts
I wont stop pushing
Til I'm where you are

The smoke is in the ai-ir
The flames start to appear
Like bright lights every wher-re
Lets show that love is here

Lets start a riot
Give love a fighting chance
Its all or nothing
Well never let em turn us back
Well never let em turn us
Lets start a ri-i-i-iot-ot
Lets start a ri-i-i-iot-i-i-iot
Lets start a ri-i-i-iot-ot
Lets start a ri-i-i-iot-i-i-iot

And when the scars all start to fade

It will be the love that stills remains

And when the scars all start to fade
It will be the love that still remains
Raise your arms and celebrate
In the end they'll know your name

Lets start a riot (repeat)
Give love a fighting chance
(You gotta give uh)
Its all or nothing
Well never let em turn us back
Lets start a ri-i-i-iot-ot
Lets start a ri-i-i-iot-i-i-iot
Lets start a ri-i-i-iot-ot
Lets start a ri-i-i-iot-i-i-iot

Lets start a riot

[Northern Lights]

[Intro:]
I am a knight of the light
Light of my mind and of heart
Together we hold much might
We can never be broken apart

[Verse:]
So what are we doing?
What are we waiting for?
Get into the music
Let’s get into the temple
What you want is some no shit
Got me stuck in the symbol
Positions of movement
Less as your potential

[Bridge:]
Love is on our tongues, boy can’t you taste it?
Ride among the stars, don’t need a spaceship
Empty all your love, boy I’m all wasted
Smoke you right on up, let’s take a space strip

[Chorus:]
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you to the northern lights

[Verse:]
Enough with the small talk
Just turn it all off
Went down the spots between, we gon create our race oh oh
Placed into the nightfall
May come in a shadow
Tonight all the stars in heaven are waving a finger

[Bridge:]
Love is on our tongues, boy can’t you taste it?
Tonight up on the shines, don’t need to chase her
I want all your love, swear I’m all wasted
Smoke you right on up, let’s take a space strip

[Chorus:]
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you to the northern lights

[Interlude:]
I can take you, I can take you
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you, I can take you
I can take you to the northern lights

[Chorus:]
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you to the northern lights

I can take you, I can take you
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you, I can take you
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you, I can take you
I can take you to the northern lights
I can take you, I can take you
Let me take you to the northern lights
