[Intro: Tyler, The Creator]
You are the light
It's not on you, it's in you
Don't you ever in your motherfucking life dim your light for nobody
Chromakopia, Chromakopia
Chromakopia (Ah), Chromakopia (Woo, woo, woo, woo)
Chromakopia (Ah, ah, ah, woo), Chromakopia (Ah, ah, ah, woo)
Chromakopia (Ah), Chromakopia (Woo, woo)
Chromako—
[Verse 1: Tyler, The Creator]
Calm down, sit still, that's one mil' for each wheel
Top down, big deal, how the fuck he do that?
What the fuck I look like? Get the fuck up out him way
Hawthorne is where him from, another planet where him stay
Fifteen cash for that new fort, I had guap since nineteen
I popped out like chi-ching, I think I'm a goddamn fiend
Really ballin' in this bitch, I'm the hardest in this bitch
Give a fuck about no bark, I'm chasin' dogs up in this bitch
El Segundo felt like colosseum
P said I could do it too, and boy, did I believe him
I built a path of freedom 'cause them words that he said
Give a fuck about tradition, stop impressin' the dead, ah
I'm gon' make it out, promise I'm gon' make it out
Mama, I'm gon' make it out, pussy, I'm gon' make it out
I ain't never had a doubt inside me
And if I ever told you that I did, I'm fuckin' lyin', can you feel the light?

[Chorus: Daniel Caesar & Tyler, The Creator]
Can you feel the light inside?
Can you feel that fire? (Can you feel it, can you feel it? Oh)
Oh, fire (Can you feel it, can you feel it? Ooh, oh), fire
Can you feel the light (Inside), inside?
Can you feel that fire? (Can you feel it?)
Oh, fire (Fire), fire (Ooh)
[Break: Tyler, The Creator]
Woo, yeah, Chromakopia, yeah, yeah, Chromakopia
Woo, yeah, Chromakopia, yeah, yeah, Chromakopia
[Verse 2: Tyler, The Creator]
Okay, I is just a box with the light of thunder in me (Woo)
Gratitude sit under the hubris that's on my sleeve
Mama said I'm mhm, special, I was mhm
Blow shit up at home back in Chromakopia, mhm
I don't (I don't), like the (Like the), way that this is lookin' (No)
Mirror got me (Got me), thinkin' about my bookend (I'm done)
I just need this time to myself to figure me out-out
Do I keep the light on or do I gracefully bow out?
It's in me, bro
[Interlude: Daniel Caesar]
Oh, oh, oh (Don't you ever stop bein' who you are and dimmin' your light for none of these motherfuckers out here)
[Chorus: Daniel Caesar]
Can you feel the light inside?
Can you feel that fire? (Oh)
Oh, fire (Oh), fire
Can you feel the light inside?
Can you feel that fire? (Oh)
You are the light
It's not on you, it's in you
Don't you ever in your motherfucking life dim your light for nobody
Chromakopia, Chromakopia
Chromakopia (Ah), Chromakopia (Woo, woo, woo, woo)
Chromakopia (Ah, ah, ah, woo), Chromakopia (Ah, ah, ah, woo)
Chromakopia (Ah), Chromakopia (Woo, woo)

Meaning & Explanation
The song "St. Chroma" by Tyler the Creator explores themes of self-belief, embracing one's individuality, and pursuing freedom and success. The repeated phrase "Can you feel the light inside?" emphasizes the importance of internal strength and confidence. The lyrics detail Tyler’s ambition, wealth, and disregard for conventional norms, while also conveying a message of personal growth and resilience ("I'm gon' make it out"). Chromakopia serves as a central concept representing this inner illumination.
