Purple is a range of hues of color occurring between red and blue. In additive light combinations it occurs by mixing the primary colors red and blue in varying proportions. It is a secondary color because two colors (blue and red) make up this color. In subtractive pigments it can be equal to the primary color magenta or be formed by mixing magenta with the colors red or blue, or by mixing just the latter two, in which case a color of low saturation will result. Low saturation will also be caused by adding a certain quantity of the third primary color (green for light or yellow for pigment).
In color theory, a "purple" is defined as any non-spectral color between violet and red (excluding violet and red themselves). The spectral colors violet and indigo are not purples according to color theory but they are purples according to common English usage since they are between red and blue.
In art, purple is the color on the color wheel between magenta and violet and its tints and shades. This color, electric purple, is shown below.

A year later an older brother was killed near his apartment, which inspired him to take rapping seriously. Mayers had started rapping at age 8, grew up admiring Harlem-based rap group The Diplomats, and also lists among his influences Three 6 Mafia, Mobb Deep, Wu-Tang Clan, UGK, Run DMC and Bone Thugs-n-Harmony.

Light it, uhh
Light it up, uhh
[Nas]
The whole, city is mine, prettiest Don
I don't like the way P. Diddy did Shyne with different lawyers
Why it's mentioned in my rhymes? Fuck it, it's just an intro
Hate it or love it, like it bump it or dump it
Writing, across the stomach spell GOD son
Life is like a jungle black it's like the habitat of Tarzan
Matter of fact, it's harder than most can imagine
Most of my niggaz packed in correctional facilities
Half of them passed on, mack strong, couple of shots
May the ghost leave a body, now they hauntin the block
Where they used to stand at, somebody's takin they place
A younger man perhaps, hand slaps, can't understand that
Same walk, same talk, I wonder can that be possible
A thug dies, another step inside his shoes
And they will hurt you, layin low with a bottle
I'm blowin circles, my state of mind purple
Light it, light it, uhh
Yeah.. light it up, light it up, uhh
Y'all just wanna deal with drama
Talk about niggaz who got things, y'all ready to kill his momma
Everything you went to is underworld related
You sell your man out, not even your girl is sacred
You don't trust a soul, hold up, you moldin soldiers
to pull guns quick and always look behind the shoulder
Think of how many dudes died tryin to be down with you
Everybody's under six feet of ground but you
Still standin, still roamin through the streets, that's real
You a survivor, knowin all the beef is ill
You got a bunch of thugs witchu even now that's ready
Trustin your judgment, quick to put it down, they deadly
The hood love you but behind your back they pray for the day
A bullet hit your heart and ambulances take you away
That ain't love it's hate, think of all the mothers at wakes
whose sons you killed, and you ain't got a cut on your face?
Unmarked police cars roam the streets hard, the heat is God
Somebody tell these shorties reach for the stars
Instead they tell 'em how to reach through the bars, holdin a mirror
Lookin down a tear in jail, makin weapons to kill ya
We smoke three tokes nigga pour more Henny
He sighs with eyes that seen a war too many
Cold-blooded murderers, universal
Hood to hood, blowin smoke, state of mind is purple
Light it up, light it up light it up, uhh
Light it up.. light it up, light it up, uhh
Uhh.. uhh, uhh, light it, light it, uhh
These hot-headed youngsters, always get into trouble
Reactin before thinkin, they easily irritated
And murder's premeditated, it's a fact that we sinkin
when we should be climbin, in a nutshell, it's just jail
Drug sales, liquor and diamonds, niggaz rewindin
instead of movin forward, to blow up so what's the science?
People shoutin, police pushin the crowd
And on the ground's a young soldier, with meat hangin out him
Am I hallucinatin off the hazin?
Or did I just see a nigga shoot another nigga's face in
It's a ugly nation, cops circle the block with mug shots
Photograph pictures of, suspect faces
It's usually, two or three niggaz who innocent
But if they lock the wrong ones up, then someone'll snitch
A divide and fall strategy, they aren't fair
I dig in my bag of weed that's covered with orange hair
This Color Purple'll make Whoopi give me the pussy
A Ceily, Oprah and Danny Glover gots to feel me
This is how I escape the madness, too much of anything'll hurt you
I think I'm coming round
Coming round to a way of thinking now
Trying to find the ground
Somewhere new to stop us slipping
Always, always straight back down
Kicking out the fool
There's no sense in us going under now
Holding on to you
Trying to swim but we're treading water
Always, always straight back down
I think that you're the one
The color never runs
A hand that heals me over, over today
You take away the grey
Bring the color as it fades
A hand that heals me over, over
Comfort in the sound
Lift the world from off your shoulders now
Lying on the ground
Staring up at a face that haunts you
Always, always straight back down
Reaching out a hand
Course there's no life without the purple
Always, always straight back down
I think that you're the one
The color never runs
A hand that heals me over, over today
You take away the grey
Bring the color as it fades
A hand that heals me over, over
Always, always straight back down
I think I'm coming rround
Coming round to a way of thinking
Always, always straight back down
I think that you're the one
The color never runs
A hand that heals me over, over today
You take away the grey
Bring the color as it fades
A hand that heals me over, over again
I think that you're the one
The color never runs
A hand that heals me over, over today
You take away the grey
Bring the color as it fades
Looking in the corner of magic round room trying to find
the bottom of the top from the inbetweenal plane.
Ultraviolet craniums glowing with seductive scent
The circus now surrounds me, attractive but obese
I do not understand me!
Could you repeat me please?
A strange and distant melody
Provoking an absurdity
Opaque, my existence from the end to the start
Numbering creation but creatively inspired
I do not understand me!
Could you repeat me please?
Particles of edis saloc
Taste the thought provoking breeze.
An interpretation of creation
Feel the uncontrolled is oscillation
But a vision alienation
Enter into a labyrinth
A new direction to uphold
New inputs accepted
Then as entering the world still turns
and mother nature will never grow old!
PURPLE
Angels found is symmetrical visions - impossibilities come to life
Edis saloc stripped from nature
Severely severed
When we praise heaven responds with open arms
When we praise heaven abides within your heart
Praise unlocks the door it breaks every chain
Praise releases dreams it's all in his name
Just praise through your struggles and through your
pain
Just praise through the storm, yes through the rain
Beyond every dark cloud, Beyond all fear and doubt
There's a blessing, a promise awaiting in your praise
When we praise God will do the impossible
Just have faith he can do the improvable
Tell of his awesome works, Speak well of his name
Jesus, oh Lamb of God forever shall reign
Just praise through your struggles and through your
pain
Just praise through the storm, yes through the rain
Beyond every dark cloud, Beyond all fear and doubt
There's a blessing, a promise awaiting in your praise
We lift our voices in one accord
Sing these praises to you oh lord
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
There is no one, No one like Thee, Holy, Holy
Praise him, Worship Him, Gonna Clap,
Gonna Dance, Gonna Shout, Gonna just lift my voice
and Praise Him, Worship Him, Gonna Clap, Gonna Dance,
Gonna Shout
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (2x)
Just praise, Just Praise, Just Praise (2x)
Just praise through your struggles and through your
pain
Just praise through the storm, yes through the rain
Beyond every dark cloud, Beyond all fear and doubt
Beyond every dark cloud, Beyond all fear and doubt
Beyond every dark cloud, Beyond all fear and doubt
There's a blessing, a promise awaiting in your praise
Sweet sweet pain- like a thundercloud but tears are rain full fists slapping thudding BANGING RAGING wanting not to be weak with woe empty hands-she's on the floor on the floor she SLAMS her empty hands like thunder it rings in her ears slapping thunder splashing in the puddles of her tears lungs heaving from the crashing dying dreaming that was ripped from her heart while BEATING and dropped all red and sloppy here, on this clean tile floor. Now there is a hole inside, where the ghosts and demons hide, whispering white wilting words of woe, hungry ugly crunchy things, HORRIBLE NASTY PERVERTED THINGS. in her head her mother whispers "spreading like a whore". weeping wilted pile heaving. weak with tears and dead with dreaming, wanting to be wanted and wanting nothing more.
PURPLE
Try to close your eyes
Baby let me feel your love inside
Come to me
I'll make sure my arms are open wide
It feels so good
That I have you on my other side
Seeing purple
Doesn't mean I'm color blind
Bring it on
I'm penetrating through your bone
I'll inject my desire inside your chromosome
All alone, I think about you night and day
The sex, the skin, yeah yeah
You make me wanna stay
All day don't walk away I'm inside you
We'll be makin' love like the house is on fire
My desire, it's so good it gets you higher
Hey seniorita give love to my maria
+pre-chorus+
So would you come with me
Would you talk to me and fly with me
It's a rollercoaster ride
So sit back, relax, meet me on the other side
+chorus+
If you want my love, if you want my name
I'll be the one to feel your pain
Don't you ever leave, coz I'm the one you need
Baby I'm the one that will be here
(2x) For you
So here I am getting wasted just to see you smile
Don't be afraid coz everythin' will be worthwhile
No one knows I just can't breathe, I can't let go
I'm not your cancer, I just want to let you know
It's like Romeo and Juliet, check on the set
Neverending love then try to reinvent
Coz I feel the thrill for real your looks can kill
Like a devil possessed by your spirit's will
I'll steal your passion, your pain and your emotion
Start the motion, my destination's your obsession
So hold me tight everythin' is gonna be all right
The light so bright oh my god
Let's get down tonight
(+pre-chorus+)
(+chorus+)
Let me go now
You come to shine now
I come now
If you leave
I'll try to die now
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
Can you feel
Can you?
On the way of your life and love
A final stop is dark oblivion
Lay it on me
I could try to show you out
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
On the way of your life and love
Where you lost your soul
I know a direction in which we can go
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
I enjoy
I enjoy
Leading you like a blind man
I enjoy
I enjoy
I enjoy
Giving my thoughts to you
I enjoy
You're like a toy in my hands
Purple washes over me
Seeping through my open seams
I'm stained all over
You pretend we started again
Waiting for me to say when
But i say purple
She won't go
Where i
I would go for you
I'd curse my heart
For you
Silence makes a girl talk fast
Speeding but i'm gonna crash
And burn for love's sake
Duty keeps a lover loyal
But is it really worth the spoils
When i dream purple
She won't go
Where i
I would go for you
I'd curse my heart
She won't go
Where i
I would go for you
I'd curse my heart
For you
She won't go
Where i
I would go for you
I curse my heart
She won't go
Where i
I would go for you
I curse my heart
For you
For you
[Instrumental]
Such a beautiful color
You wear upon your skin
And the perfect shade of purple
On a flower permanent
And I'm constantly reminded
Of a past that never bloomed
As I sit behind these bars
Only silence fills the room
I've never been down this road before
As the days go by, I only miss you more
I thought one day we would touch the sky
Never grow up, never gonna die
I never realized what you meant to me
'Til I tried drowning out your memory
But it runs back, like it's not over
It only hurts when I'm sober
Such a beautiful color
I wear upon my skin
And the perfect shade of purple
On a flower permanent
And I'm constantly reminded
Of how I should have changed
And now I can't stop thinking about the love that slipped away
It slipped away
I've never been down this road before
As the days go by, I only miss you more
I thought one day we would touch the sky
Never grow up, never gonna die
I never realized what you meant to me
'Til I tried drowning out your memory
But it runs back, like it's not over
It only hurts when I'm sober
You're all that I ever wanted
You're all that I needed
And now I'm spending a lifetime
Drowning without you
I'm starting over and over again
Such a beautiful color
You wear upon your skin
And the perfect shade of purple
On a flower permanent
I've never been down this road before
As the days go by, I only miss you more
I thought one day we would touch the sky
Never grow up, never gonna die
I never realized what you meant to me
'Til I tried drowning out your memory
But it runs back, like it's not over
It only hurts when I'm sober
I've never been down this road before
As the days go by, I only miss you more
I thought one day we would touch the sky
Never grow up, never gonna die
I never realized what you meant to me
'Til I tried drowning out your memory
But it runs back, like it's not over
It only hurts when I'm sober
Sitting in the silent twilight
The purple half light
Of the twilight
Wrap the night around me
Blanket of black on my back
I feel safe in the darkness
Your voice is a caress
Delights my senses
Heightens my happiness
Lightens my sadness
Your eyes were on me I remember
Those days in September
Sunset run night
Your hand held in mine
Sitting in the silent twilight
The purple half light
Of the twilight
Wrap the night around me
Blanket of black on my back
I feel safe in the darkness
The silence is so loud
I almost feel it
Nothing to say now
Barely can talk now
I'm feeling like I'm lost
I'm feeling dumb
Speechless and numb
So long I've been blind
I'm losing my mind
Sitting in the silent twilight
The purple half light
Of the twilight
Wrap the night around me
Blanket of black on my back
I feel safe in the darkness
Sitting in the silent twilight rapture
Could it be too hard to capture?

Thanks.
As I stepped out from that door it has arrived directly
in my face.
But just one question:
am I a better man?
But just one question:
is this a better world?
Smoke through eyes that did not sleep. Of cigarettes
lighten up in the morning soon.
Of silence. Interrupted and broken.
Usual fear to collapse in front of chewed hurting
words.
That forever I'll keep within and into those lowered
eyelids.
But just one question: am I a better man?
Of the losses the most definitive and atrocious and
unjust one.
Soaked into those swollen eyes. It rains tears that
slide in every breath, crushing into the purple.
I let myself being invaded.
Cause there's no shelter for those eyes that for how
much I can tighten
will not have the same light anymore.
But just one question:
am I a better man?
But just one question:
is this, above all, a better world?
Memories holding me back to that moment.
It feels hard as a sandstone.
Soaked into swollen eyes
Of broken dreams evaporating
It rains tears that slide in every breath, crushing
into the purple.
The longest second. In the fold of a morning. Another
man is waiting to die.
The longest minute. In the fold of a morning. Another
man is waiting to die.
The longest hour. In the fold of a morning. Another man
is waiting to die.
The night of the longest day ever. Another man is
[Young Dru:]
Yeah
You know I had to do this one
I dedicate this
To everybody in the world that smokes purple
And everybody at the canibus clubs that supply it
This one's for you
[Verse 1:]
You're my super saucy dragonfly
Purple, purple
How keep a player so high
I used for have a fetish
For them light green eyes
But since I met you
All I want is purple in my life
You my life and the lover
No one
I put you in the air
And never put nothin' above ya
Who needs a strawberry
Blunt, when you got a bag of grapes
I zig zag
Through traffic to take you on a date
I remember when I first met you
The sweet scent of your perfume
Filled the room, and I just had to get you
And make you mine
It all started with a casual kiss
Then came a twist
I got obsessed, and got attached, and started tearin' from the wrist
I drove for miles in a bucket, just to come and pick you up
When was stranded down in Amsterdam, at the club, stuck
Everyday, I had to see you, you're the girl that I admire
Everybody wanna hit it, dragonfly, you on fire
[Chorus: x2]
Come take a hit of my
Purple
And just
Relax
Off the sac
And some 'nac
[Verse 2:]
She got a green
Daddy named Urkel, and a mama named Cream
She got a brother named Barney that likes to party with my team
I weighed her up on the triple beam
And it seems
She lost weight, but wait, she still the girl of my dreams
You're my Purple People Eater
Canibus club diva
With ya zodiac signs and [? ] us a diva
I used to mess around with those Mexican mamacitas
Til I ran into my super saucy purple prize eater
Even with my cost, but you always give me a lift
Cause you my princess, my sweet passion, my God's gift
Everytime I see you, I just wanna bone you, girl
You so fly, I wanna comb you, girl
[Chorus x4]
[Singer:]
(R.J. Johnson/Guiney/Meyers)
She breathes she'd walk through fire for me
and I led her
She never talks to me, can you blame her
I never followed her, to ask for her forgiveness
she needs awhile to make it through
and I turn to Purple
I can't give you what you need
. for a sacrifice, too much for me
It seems as, you can't seems to see
between the lines
won't ever question me, if its given time
I've never felt the urge of blasphemy committed
she needs awhile to make it through
and I turn to Purple
I can't give you, what you see
. for the sacrifice is all that
lives to make you worldly
and I'll never feel the hurt
Sitting in the silent twilight
The purple half light
Of the twilight
Wrap the night around me
Blanket of black on my back
I feel safe in the darkness
Your voice is a caress
Delights my senses
Heightens my happiness
Lightens my sadness
Your eyes were on me I remember
Those days in September
Sunset run night
Your hand held in mine
Sitting in the silent twilight
The purple half light
Of the twilight
Wrap the night around me
Blanket of black on my back
I feel safe in the darkness
The silence is so loud
I almost feel it
Nothing to say now
Barely can talk now
I'm feeling like I'm lost
I'm feeling dumb
Speechless and numb
So long I've been blind
I'm losing my mind
Sitting in the silent twilight
The purple half light
Of the twilight
Wrap the night around me
Blanket of black on my back
I feel safe in the darkness
Sitting in the silent twilight rapture
Could it be too hard to capture?
It's all purple blue
On the top of the world, staring straight at a picture of you
And you're standing in the middle, now your face is getting thinner
Now your face is getting thinner
And now she's presently white
Standing next to a friend saying things that you never should've said
If I keep lookin' at you, will you cut me in two?
Cut me in two
Will you cut me in two?
Cut me in two
I see you purple blue
We're filling out all the life living space, other people like you
And when we're standing in the middle, will you break it til you quit ‘er?
Will you break it til you quit ‘er?
Will you break it til you quit ‘er?
