Album: The Gifted (2013)

Sunshine

May the optimism of tomorrow, be your foundation for today

[Chorus: x2]
Spotlight on my face
Sunshine, I can't tell a lie
Want me to say what they just wanna hear now?
Want me to say what they just wanna hear now?

I can't lie I feel quite phenomenal today baby
That new black soul shit
It's that new black soul
Haha, yeah, that new black soul
Uh
Uh
Yea, bounce, bounce
It's so soulful at the moment right?
Look...

I was in the business when you was chasing the bitches
Now I got the dollars, I'm tryna get my position
Couple bad decisions, I got some character issues
Although I'm never slippin' like student/parent permission
Yes I am aware that America tryna get me
So I let my friends carry paraphernalia
Before I love a industry girl, I'll marry a civillian
Picture a young rich woman taking me serious
Although I hit my stride, ain't even in my prime (nah)
Singles on the chart make a broad lose top these days
You ain't gotta do nothing to pop these days
Instagram is runnin they thoughts these days
62 joints, got me duggin on em
Humble, got my ass dropped now I'm stuntin' on 'em
You better know that you overdue for some better endings
That's to whoever developed second-guessing they blessings
(Ralph)

[Chorus: x2]
Spotlight on my face
Sunshine, I can't tell a lie
Want me to say what they just wanna hear now?
Want me to say what they just wanna hear now?

I just need you to vibe with me real quick, we came from nothing
We here now baby
Yeah, yeah let me tell you bout the gift
Uh huh every day, don't forget let me tell you bout the...
Back on my shit
Let me tell you bout the... let me tell you bout the gift

I don't like to boast but they ain't touchin' the flow (nope)
Fuck a therapy so put everything in this cone
My only fear of being marriage she scared of being alone
She settle for this bread so therein just be a trophy
I'm a probably marry somebody already familiar
VH1 10 & I ain't thinkin' about these bitches
Can do without opinions,
Another brother caught up in the business
Had them locks since I lost my scholarship
I been gettin' it to my old coach and ballin'
Rose gold was 40, dopest nigga recordin'
Make hoes sprint the 40
See me I thought the money would change it, it got worse
But it's a lot better than the screaming who got work (who got work?!)
From openin' the back, to packin' up 9: 30
I never sold crack when crack rappin was workin
With that fact it's backpackin and murkin
Gettin' that Bobby Heenan while you're Mr. Perfect

[Chorus: x2]
Spotlight on my face
Sunshine, I can't tell a lie
What makes you say that they just wanna hear now?
What makes you say that they just wanna hear now?

Let me tell you about the gift
Let me tell you about the gift
Let me tell you about the gift

This dedicated to my nephew Tony
Rest in peace bro
Love
Shine on us Kuzo
We ain't 'pposed to never
We ain't 'pposed to never
We ain't 'pposed to never have
Aye nigga we ain't 'pposed to never
We ain't 'pposed to never have
We ain't 'pposed to never
We ain't 'pposed to never
We ain't 'pposed to never
