Sunrays - Jade, Stalley

Right now we’d like to continue with

A composition by yours truly

Another day, another dollar gone

Another prayer gone

Another scar to place this wish upon

I sit and listen long as I sift through songs

To place my burden on

Hope one day the world will relate to Stalley on

A gift from (?)

A city where young tigers put their stripes on

Hustling from sun up until the light is gone

Nothing weak about them, everyone is crazy strong

Look at me, nothing about me made wrong

They said I left him alone

I don’t come home much

I stay shouting BK, its like I lost touch

All I do is brag and boast

When all I’m trying to do is make it better for those with no hopes

Who see good athletes turn into dopes

I’m out here up against the ropes for my little city

So when you see me swinging in my blades

Know every single one of y’all is with me

So tip your plastic cups and light your haze

Its for my niggas on opies

Imma make sure (?) town seen better days

And when it gets old, it gets old

And when it gets cold, it gets cold

I’m looking for those sunrays

And better days, better days, better days

Its sunny outside

And when it gets old, it gets old

And when it gets cold, it gets cold

I’m looking for those sunrays

And better days, better days, better days

Its sunny outside

We cry

Then laugh at struggle

Then get up

Go hard

Then scrape up knuckles

We define hustle as crack rock

In the black box

And building with the mind muscle

Street relics

We black, whatchu trying to tell us

Since slavery the mind has been rebellious

Could never nail us

Try and cross us

Get tossed and held dust

They said hell’s for us

We could never see heaven

Everyday I look up

Shorties getting battered and cuffed up

So maybe its out of reach

Or maybe its just us we yelling

As they try and judge us

Brainwash our thinking

Cause niggas ain’t really been free

Thanks anyway Lincoln

Tweny-eight presidents later a change gon' come

At least I hope that’s what he’s really thinking

And when it gets old, it gets old

And when it gets cold, it gets cold

I’m looking for those sunrays

And better days, better days, better days

Its sunny outside

And when it gets old, it gets old

And when it gets cold, it gets cold

I’m looking for those sunrays

And better days, better days, better days

Its sunny outside
