Headie One The Light

Though several full-lengths deep into his career, Headie One finally released his highly anticipated debut album, EDNA on Friday. Stacked with 20 tracks, EDNA cements Headie One as a leading voice in the UK’s drill scene. He lands collaborations with heavy-hitters such as Drake, Future, and Stormzy while unifying with other defining voices of the UK’s drill scene like Young Adz and M Huncho.

Many of his high points on the album are on his own, though. Following a tumultuous journey to the top, Headie One details the wins and the losses on “The Light.” Produced by 169, an eerily diving vocal sample rings off throughout the track as Headie One details defeat and triumphs on his road to the top and the principles of the streets.

Lyrics

[Intro]
Ooh-ooh
Yo

[Chorus]
My past and the bujj is dark
But I guess, now I can see the light (Turn, turn)
My ex on my back
Is it only cah I’m in Off-White? (Chale)
Double R got neon lights
I can’t forget them Seat Leon times (Turn)
I’m doin’ one-twenty on the M, I’m about to reach Yorke Dwight (Turn, turn, turn, told me turn, ayy)
My past and the bujj is dark
But I guess, now I can see the light (Told me turn)
My ex on my back
Is it only cah I’m in Off-White? (Chale)
Double R got neon lights
I can’t forget them Seat Leon times
I’m doin’ one-twenty on the M, I’m about to reach Yorke Dwight (Suh-suh-suh, s-s-suh)
Yo, yo (Turn)

[Verse 1]
All my life, I’ve flipped caucasian (Turn, turn)
Buy fast dingers and I go horse racin’ (Turn, turn)
Opps dem can’t celebrate occasions
Gang dem pullin’ up, all guns blazin’ (Brrrp, brrrp)
Came face-to-face with Satan
Still now everything amazin’ (Told me turn)
In jail, I caught chicken in a laundry basin
Now I’m just shellin’ in Copenhagen (Turn)
Opps don’t drill, they just want our reputation tainted (Ah, ah)
When I spoke to that bitty and she called me Headie
I swear down, I nearly fainted (One)
So I put all workers on rotation
How was I famous and on probation? (Turn, turn, turn, turn)
Ah, I was in jail when it was ounto nation
Put the key in ignition, ignite (Ignite, ignite)
If we ain’t go there, do it in a four-door truck, we just do it on bike (Turn, turn, turn turn)
Bro dabbed me in for the re, I just done the wrist work, I didn’t even dry (Nope)
Ask the bitty if she got triple A for the digis, no, so I did it with the eye

[Chorus]
My past and the bujj is dark
But I guess, now I can see the light (Turn, turn)
My ex on my back
Is it only cah I’m in Off-White? (Chale)
Double R got neon lights
I can’t forget them Seat Leon times (Turn)
I’m doin’ one-twenty on the M, I’m about to reach Yorke Dwight (Turn, turn, turn, told me turn, ayy)
My past and the bujj is dark
But I guess, now I can see the light (Told me turn)
My ex on my back
Is it only cah I’m in Off-White? (Chale)
Double R got neon lights
I can’t forget them Seat Leon times
I’m doin’ one-twenty on the M, I’m about to reach Yorke Dwight (Suh-suh-suh, s-s-suh)

[Verse 2]
I told little bro, “When you go around the fiends, still be polite” (You have to)
Up north, the bando’s letterbox settings, I didn’t even need the line (No)
How much times did I nearly conk out at the scales and sleep the night? (Ah)
Then next mornin’, I hear drug squads at the door, oh, it’s just about leavin’ time (Turn, turn, turn, turn, ayy)
Stars in roofs, sky’s the limit, they didn’t lie (Told me turn)
Star on a opp block, he heard that corn and he didn’t die
Trap so hard, couldn’t leave the line, them man, they live a lie (One)
Was really in the field at night, headlights off, complete that glide (Turn, turn, turn, turn)
Done it like Ian Wright
Same time trap out of me and mine (Told me turn)
I got on my knees and I prayed for a box, not one from Dillian Whyte(Turn, turn, turn, turn, ayy)
Next thing, I’m right on the wing like Willian
And feds on my prince like William
Life was a challenge way before cinnamon (One)
I think I just run through a million (S-S-S-Suh)

[Chorus]
My past and the bujj is dark
But I guess, now I can see the light (Turn, turn)
My ex on my back
Is it only cah I’m in Off-White? (Chale)
Double R got neon lights
I can’t forget them Seat Leon times (Turn)
I’m doin’ one-twenty on the M, I’m about to reach Yorke Dwight (Turn, turn, turn, told me turn, ayy)
My past and the bujj is dark
But I guess, now I can see the light (Told me turn)
My ex on my back
Is it only cah I’m in Off-White? (Chale)
Double R got neon lights
I can’t forget them Seat Leon times
I’m doin’ one-twenty on the M, I’m about to reach Yorke Dwight (Suh-suh-suh, s-s-suh)
