*Lyrics below* 💙
[Intro]
I wanna turn those blue lights into strobe lights
Not blue flashing lights, maybe fairy lights
Those blue lights into strobe lights
Maybe even fairy lights, not blue flashing lights
[Verse 1]
Don't you run when you hear the sirens coming
When you hear the sirens coming
You better not run 'cause the sirens not coming for you
What have you done?
You went to school that day
Was a bit late but it was a Monday
Kept after class for answering back
You apologized any harm in that
[Chorus]
I wanna turn those blue lights
What have you done
Into strobe lights
There's no need to run
Not blue flashing lights
If you've done nothing wrong
Maybe fairy lights
Blue lights should just pass you by
[Verse 2]
Gun crime into your right ear
Drugs and violence into your left
Default white headphones flooding the auditory
Subconscious waves you accept
You're sitting on the 4 back home
"Where you at, G? Answer your phone!"
Pause the poison to answer his message
Your boy sounds rushed, fears for his adolescence
[Chorus]
I wanna turn those blue lights
What have you done
Into strobe lights
There's no need to run
Not blue flashing lights
If you've done nothing wrong
Maybe fairy lights
Blue lights should just pass you by
[Verse 3]
Tall black shadow as you're getting off the bus
Shadow shows no emotion so what's even the fuss?
But the face of your boy casts a darker picture
Of the red handed act, he's gonna whisper;
"Look blud I'm sorry 'cause I know you got my back
He was running, I couldn't think, I had to get out of that"
Not long ago you were miming to the "Shook Ones"
Now this really is part two 'cause you're the shook one
Hands you the tool as you question your friendship
How's man like you gonna make me a convict?
Level of a felon when I've done nothing wrong
Blood on my hands but I don't know where it's from, oh
You got blood on your hands but you don't know where it's from
[Bridge]
You better run when you hear the sirens coming
When you hear the sirens coming
Better run when you hear the sirens coming
'Cause they will be coming for you
Run when you hear the sirens coming
Better run when you hear the sirens coming
When you hear the sirens coming
The blue lights are coming for you
[Chorus]
I wanna turn those blue lights
What have you done
Into strobe lights
There's no need to run
Not blue flashing lights
If you've done nothing wrong
Maybe fairy lights
Blue lights should just pass you by
[Outro]
Blud, when you hear the sirens coming
Don't you run when you hear the sirens coming
Blud, when you hear the sirens coming
Don't you run when you hear the sirens coming
What have you d-d-d-done done
Don't you run
Don't you run
Don't you run when you hear the sirens coming
Subliminal! ... Thanks for doing this colors-team!
COLORS show a colors
Aprobed
Try to invite Chilla or Jazzy Bazz, they are great french artists and even Damso belgium singer
This was the song that I fell in love with her music to
😍💙✨
she is literally the most beautiful person in the world
Eve wouldn’t go that far
FACTS
Eve definitely! Gorgeous in every kind of way
Haha, no.
Calm down
All you lucky people hearing this for the first time.
Trust me is not the first time I've seen this song
Fax
me! :)
Still hits each time
@@imanormie4692 on point
This song was insanely well written
After listening for soem months, you're right.
This song is* insanely well written
@@DeaThiHDShut up
See now that's a tricky one. Present tense yes it 'Is' well written, but past tense when it 'was' well written (at the time). so there's no need to correct, especially since your comment both 'was' and 'is' written as well. @@DeaThiHD
if it was only written...
5 years on & i still get goosebumps listening to this ❤
You aint alone fam. That's what real messages coupled with real music do. It's powerful. It's str8 from another's depth and soul.
Same
so true ^^
A sonzeira é eterna, meu padrin
exatamente kkkkkkk@@diogogambardella9340
The COLORS show has exposed me to a whole new kind of music and musicians that my soul has been longing to find all these years but just didn't know how. Thanks for this.
I agree
THIS
Yes!! ✊🏾✊🏾
Facts mine too fam
I'm your 700 like
Everything on colors sounds 10x better than the original
IKR?!
not true the original is so good
true. but do you know Tiny Desk? You'll find it 10x better than COLORS!
@@paulal.3281 tiny desk is amazing too! I can agree
Not always but a lot of the time yeah
this probably my favorite song. Do you understand the anxiety of those blue lights? Her voice is so angelic!
In my opinion, Jorja cries her lyrics instead of singing them... one of the few able to pour feelings into words... love from Portugal, Ben.
speechless
EscapeTracks- You came to the right song!
yeah
aulas
Cringe
I think than after 3 years, it's gonna be ok but , no , this song is eternal
She sings so effortlessly, such a beautiful voice
@@freder1c why's that
@@freder1c Thought the same :/ it's sad colors was basically all lives befores
@@freder1c and you're very slow, clearly.
@@freder1c the only way you could think that is if you haven't heard the studio version. There are glaringly obvious differences.
@@freder1c oh so which version is this? Since you have inside knowledge on other versions.....and if you have ever seen her live (I have) she sings almost effortlessly. It looks like she barely opens her mouth, but that's how she is able to get the sounds she does.
Jorja Smith has such a hypnotising melody, her vocals are completely amazing. Its only people like her who actually deserve the title "Artist".
this is the first song i heard from Jorja, and fell in love with her craft! The visuals made it easier for me to get the lyrics.
Yeah, same for me. I feel like this song broke her into the mainstream. I heard this song on the radio and was hooked. Looked her up and was hooked on her album. So different from this song but such a talented woman!
I remember when one of my friends heard the original version of Wandering Romance and he said wow, this girl did a remix of the AJ Tracey song? And i was like nah, the AJ Tracey version is the remix bro!
Same here and I'm a huge fan now
She needs to run that skin care routine ASAP
Sage's Rain she did it once on her IG story, wonder if it’s available anywhere
Joanna R she also said in an interview that she is blessed from her mum with beautiful skin 😇💙🌹
Celebrities get paid to promote products, I doubt she will use those products
twitter.com/jorjadaily/status/882036804517548032?lang=en
probably drinks a lot of water.
She’s so attractive and her voice is killer. So unique.
way lets wavy
Wat does her looks have to do with anything
@@nah_may again, wat does that have to do with the song
Not unique. Look up Ms Dynamite
Killa in the hood
Who the hell just sounds so effortlessly beautiful like this? 😍😍😍
Jorja is literally flawless ❤️
I think Twylamb is bettr
Hindi zihara. Juanita enjoy the silence. Jolene dolly parton corn bread. Flowers smiley Miley.
This is Gold
This is Cold
No it's blue
This is God
No it’s blue
No it’s blue 🙄
she doesn't even look like she's trying and yet she's flawless
That's the secret 😉
exactly, that´s talent
can you imagine if she really made an effort
@@RokuroMusic I guarantee you she’s really making an effort. Lebron James makes basketball look effortless but to assume he’s not giving it his all is wrong.
video recorded separately. it is not live.
GOOSEBUMPS... no matter how long youve been listening to this, your body WILL manifest
She needs to keep doing this kind of music &vibes 🔥
Her voice gives me a warm feeling.
Like a warme Kuscheldecke
lol the comment on top of yours says that this song gives chills. interesting.
It's called love.
@@8ernd Love is nice
That’s just the shit running down your leg
What a powerful song. Jorja's Smith voice is incredible.
Lol
Il ne se passe plus un jour sans que je l’écoute ,c'est ma petite fée..car elle exerce un vrai pouvoir positif....sa voix est magnifique
pena que poucos entendem a mensagem
I have never heard a song that makes me feel the way this song does every-time. Any time I listen my body tingles and I get goosebumps as u would listening for the first time
jorja's voice is absolutely beautiful
This is perfection.
hey luke love your vids
Its a murder song but the beat dosend drop perfect on minute 2:07 .... for me the melody must brake down a lil bit earlier ( with the snare hit ). But dosend matter the song is killing !!!
Gracias Violeta H. por traerme a esta obra de arte
Podeis decir lo que sea de Violeta, pero ella sabe escoger temas para cantar ❤
No se pero la cancion es más WoW con la voz de violeta 💜
Violeta sacara musica increíble tiene buen gusto 💜💜💜
things this song reminds me of:
•sad 90s movie scenes
•leo dicaprio in the basketball diaries
•beautiful people becoming addicts
•foggy and rainy days
•feeling your face tighten after being dried of tears
•the feeling seeing minors in gangs
•missing a family member
AND IT REMINDS ME OF THESE THINGS IN SUCH A BEAUTIFUL WAY
Panda Otaku she’s from where I’m from. Number 8 small street my g. She reminds me of home. That’s not always a good thing.
Reminds me of the fugees
I love this comment. I thought I was the only one who thought about what songs remind me of 💕
No el debarge ? Lol sample came from him
reminds me of a mother talking to her son asking "what have you done?"
This girl is really talented! Her album is absolutely beautiful. I hope she'll go far because she deserves it.
Kelly I’m dead inside,music is the only thing that saves me...listen to my songs,you won’t regret I promise💔💔
Kelly fat agree
Kelly she was nominated for a Grammy!
@@brokensymmetry1874rlyy
The song is so powerful and her voice is amazing
Quelques notes, une voix et de l'émotion... rien de plus pour nous faire ressentir quelque chose...
the way that she sings just looks like she’s talking
Probably because she was lipsyncing.
S.M. Shoaib she isn’t you can hear slight imperfections in the tone and notes that aren’t quite as long. I suppose it should be a compliment if your voice is so good it sounds like your lip syncing
@goatstop She doesn't have lip filler lmao you clowns will come for anyone huh
goatstop no
most people exaggerate when they sing, Jorja doesn’t do that unnecessary stuff
One of the best musical artists of our generation, people will soon realise.
Just Good Music maybe not for the world but 100% if you are just talking about the UK
MCHawkJunior well King Krule is from uk too but I think that he is one of the best
Yeah she's dope she saying some real shit to
But SZA can't sing for shit
veenga chica. La frases lapidarias la llaman
I’ve never gone through anything the song is talking about, but I do have real bad paranoia.
This song is amazing, cause it calms down all those voices in my head telling me to keep stressed. It’s all right. Nothings happening right now.
Thank you.
The passion she puts into the music is what makes it all the more beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Can we talk about the fact that the COLORS version of this has more views than the official video?
It has 10 times the amount of the original video to be exact.
@@Katoothitramath.
also that's crazyyy if im being honest i like thise one better its just more natural idek like her voice is like more smooth.not saying the other isn't just PERFECT;jus my opinion
Ok what about it?
luna same as bury me alive my kelvyn colt I think the colours edit is way better than original
@@samrozari9316 ITS SO GOOOD HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE
Baffles me how she sounds exactly like the album version.
Harry Verolme lmao same thought. Kinda feel like she lipped sang
nah u can hear subtle artistic differences and she's changed up 2 words or so
Honestly she sounds better now than when the song was first released, which i didn't realize was even possible.
Harry Verolme yeah on these videos even tho these performances are acoustic and these are their pure voices the guys who run colors usually mix and master it making the quality sometimes better than the original
I don’t think Blue Lights was on any album. It’s her debut single.
i dont get tired of this song
Está sesión debería tener mucho más reconocimiento, cada vez que vuelvo acá quedo fascinado por la interpretación, no sé, pero es demasiado adictiva. ❤️
Me pasa igual me fascina demasiado
This video has 91 million views what more recognition do you want? Lol
This video has 100 million views recognition is here bro
Her outfit is so sickkkkkk
it's from bonne suits
is like a cool kitchen uniform
@@zefnath BLESS YOU!
Hell yeah
Don't like the shoes
This song has a relevant message.
the starbucks men case
Thats exactly what i thought when i first listened to it
Wendy A. Interesting that you bring this up because at the time that she wrote this song, she was working at Starbucks.
Horribly said
CHRISTI XX Tu
Such a unique talent with a beautiful voice. So proud of Jorja and all her success!!
What a music right here 💖 a u t h e n t I c v i e w s 💖dun took Jorja Smith oFf 2 da big leagues and for dat I will always be super grateful
She’s saying “don’t run if you’ve done nothing wrong”, Showing how it should be if you see the police, except that’s not the case because of the racial injustices the black community face, that’s when she switches to “you better run because the blue lights are coming for you” even if you’ve done nothing wrong.
this song hit me in my soul.
So dont give anyone the benefit of the doubt..just outrun the bullets....?
Millions of black people are arrested absolutely normally every year.
How can the prisons be full of black people if every time police see them.theyre killed.....who brought them to jail?
All cops arent bad all black people.arent criminals.
Dont run from the police, you will die, because a youtube star who never met you told you to run for it.....
Horrible advice
Great song though
@@SienaGrad I never said every time the police see black people they kill them. However, you just proved mine and jorja’s point by saying the prisons are full of black people, because they are incarcerated at a much higher rate than any other race. It is factual that the police have a common history of treating black people differently to other races, and it’s not just advice from a “youtube star”, it’s been a topic talked about for decades
I thought the song was about how young people are drawn into gun and knife crime
@@4cory thanks!! It was quite insightful and I enjoyed it
She makes singing look so effortless
because she wasnt actually singing, lip sync
The Bjorn Isn't colors a live show?
I thought it was live as well, BUT either way lip syncing or not if you watch live performance videos of Jorja she still makes singing look effortless imo so it doesn't really matter to me.
Shemaiah usually performances are not lip synced could be 2 reasons why she did this 1. to rest her voice or 2. they didnt have the money for a real live perfomance from her lol
The Bjorn she's singing live... people who have actual talent and singing voices make it look effortless.
Vengo aqui porque Violeta acaba de decir en el directo que seguramente cante está canción ❤️
i remember hearing this 4 years ago like sheeshhhh still bump it here and there such an amazing performance one my favorites!
1 year ago I was sitting in a coffeshop in amsterdam, while smoking and sketching on my bloc, Suddenly I hear the voice of hers, singing that song and those words, drawed all my attention to the point I was crying. You dont need to be black or living in the Us to know what the lyrics means. It is important, because it matters to know that this is still happening in the 21'st century. Thats sad, we must stop this.
Thank you for taking the time reading this. Stay healthy.
I live in Russia and I UNDERSTAND THIS. Do u think u are the only ones who faced police brutality? Here in Russia u can go to jail for COMMENT IN THE NETWORK or if you throw a coffee paper cup into a cop.
@@michaelistoma8356I understand your pain and anger too but with no word I doubted anything regarding russia or any anti liberal county nor did I claimed anything you said. You sir, just didnt read properly. Have a nice day.
@@walpurgina8366 oh, yes, i'm sorry
I really did not.
Love!
she aint even american
As a black man this hits the very core to the point where it almost hurts, but its nothing but the truth. Your damned if you run, your damned if you don’t run. I’m truly thankful to remain alive after several encounters with “law enforcement “ too many of us dying when we shouldn’t have🙍🏿♂️
Most of you "remain alive" tho
@@synertic7271 shut your mouth
@GrubDaddy no one said they don't but in predominantly white areas and countries blacks get killed the most by officers
@GrubDaddy I'm from a third world country. Surprise surprise, racism and police brutality are still a thing here
@GrubDaddy Hey buddy, I 'm pretty sure I know and have witnessed and studied what happens around here more then you but I don't think an internet discussion is gonna put sense in your head so... Have a nice day
Her lyrics are always unique and that's what I like about her
I literally Never got over this performance. This is pure art to me, Shes a goddess ❤️🔥
She looks like she's casually talking when she's actually singing like a beast!
holy crap she is absolutely gorgeous
4 years later, this still is a go-to song when looking back. Speaks of trauma with Police Officers.
Right in this moment is my first time discovering this gem... :D
Insane how it sounds virtually identical to the studio version. Angelic voice.
best colors live ever. I ended up taking a flight to overseas saw her gig and that was the best thing I've ever done this year.
thats fucking awesome, great you did that !
looooooooooool
This song gives me chills.
Lavonne Peterson same. Her voice is amazing
i feel the same way 4 sure ...
Lavonne Peterson that drop in the beat tho😨
yup, me too. It's amazing..
It's the beat
..so good beats , so good voice. .. feels like rain on my skin
Powerful rocks my soul every time!
So I accidentally clicked on this vid...I regret nothing
Me too man
Better not
KNIGHT MASTER Same!
She sounds like Zhavia
@@guillermo090986 More like Zhavia sounds like her.
she (her voice) is a mix version of nelly furtado, sia, amy winehouse and rihanna
dsir_ prc i hear sza as well
dsir_ prc precisely amy vibes are more.
Nope... Rihanna - Man down !!
dsir_ prc kinda Khelani

I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR JORJA SMITH TO BE ON THIS CHANNEL FOR SO LONG I AM SO HAPPY♥️♥️😫
Kel wuuut ? First vid here?

If you have been there you just have drop a tear, rage and pain and resentment, this is more rap than a lot of golden rappers.
How on earth can she have a voice like that AND be that beautiful !
Her lips were barely moving sometimes and she still had so much range omg ❤️
That’s how you are supposed to sing. She has amazing technique!
Lyla Faith 🤔🤔🤔
Lip synching
Lyla Faith, you're supposed to open your mouth wide when singing. 😂 I mean, if you can hit all your notes fucking perfectly while barely opening your mouth then fuck the rules. *(IF YOU CAN DO THAT)*
Jorja you absolute snack
A.prozac 😂😂😂😂
She’s a whole mean! 👏🏽👏🏽
so beautiful
The way she sings "What Have You Done" it sends shivers down my spine as ive had my mam say that to me during a bad time in my life.
What an incredible voice! Gives me goosebumps. *COLORS* always making my day.
YESS JORJA OMGLIFE UGHH
