I feel this song is about the consequences of being in the lights and how people really dont know what really is goin on with celebrities
Rihanna Hook/Verse
"Turn up the lights in here, baby
Extra bright, I want y'all to see this
Turn up the lights in here, baby
You know what I need
Want you to see everything
Want you to see all of the lights
Fast cars, shooting stars
Until it’s Vegas everywhere we are
If you want it you can get it for the rest of your life
If you want it you can get it for the rest of your life"
I take this as meaning that she wants you to see everything not just what is portrayed on TV…And the second part I feel is sayin that if you want it you can have the fame for the rest of your life…but is it something good?
Kanyes verse blatenly is about things that we as the public wouldnt know or think was going on, Exposing us to ALL OF THE LIGHTS. When Kanye explains the different LIGHTS and different LIFES. The lights I feel are representing ones that bring into the vision to be seen (cop lights, flash lights, strobe light, street light {also these lights can be seen as different shades of life you can be seen in criminal, paparazzi, party, drug…which all someway somehow creat attention}) The lifes are styles that rappers portray and people imitate.
Clearly Kanye doesn't really have a daughter, but instead it represents music. When he "slapped his girldfriend" i can see that having to do with what he did to Taylor Swift and how everyone react negatively towards him afterwards. He "did his time" is when he was gone away from the public for awhile after his public relation fiasco. Now he's back and willing to be more "supportive" of his music and learned from his mistakes.
Cudi’s part I feel plays into the imitation point I just made “You should go and get your own” I feel means that you should be yourself because he is getting his
Fergie plays into the theme of the song by tellin you the struggles that you dont know. Thus I feel making her say “We goin' all the way this time” meaning im goin to expose ALL OF THE LIGHTS if thats what you want
Let's remember that before Fergie was with the BEP's, she had a very serious drug addiction problem and she talks about that in her short verse.
