Sunshine Lyrics - New Danger - Mos Def

(Let the sun shine) 

Yeah yeah its a brand new day y'all (Let the sunshine in) 

Turn me up in the top a little bit dog 

Little do you know, y'all gonna hear this one (The suns shinin') 

Loud and clear, bright and early 

Listen 

I don't hate players, I don't love the game 

I'm the shot clock, way above the game 

To be point blank with you motherfuck the game 

I got all this work on me, I ain't come for play 

You can show the little shorties how you pump and fake 

But dog, Not to def, I'm not impressed 

I'm not amused, I'm not confused, I'm not to dude 

I'm grown man business, and I am not in school 

Put your hand down youngin' this is not for you 

On my "J.O." with beats by Kan-ye yo 

My name on the marquee, your name off the payroll 

Style fresh, like I'm still a day old 

And it's been like that since the day yo 

On more time than a Roley, or Seiko 

Step on deck, your neck do what I say so 

Get up or get out, get down or lay low 

(Let the sun shine) 

Standing in the shadow of a fabulous man 

Brooklyn nigga I am, Black Dante (Let the sunshine in) 

That nigga, that dude 

Black People, Lets Move (The suns shinin') 

Shout out to my man Talib Kweli, yes 

We on top-a top-a, shout-a shout-a 

Check it out 

Slim nigga that casts a big shadow 

Cherokee red to shoot the long arrow 

Got more skill, more aim, and more ammo 

You can get it all from a big or small barrel 

Like, hail Mary, full of grace 

Niggas come in and shoot up the place 

And make you pull up your face 

The deck, I'm a pull out the ace 

From the jungles of the empire state 

where it ain't no escape, 247, 718 

And that's like every night, every day 

From the place that I settle and stay 

To the states, I'm collecting my pay 

Blast off then I'm back to the K 

Hold it down so my family straight 

Represent in a family way 

Pro ball not for amateur play 

Been raw since the amateur stage 

Before the press had the cameras raised 

(Let the sun shine) 

Like a long time man of the way 

You understanding me straight (Let the sunshine in) 

Yes, yes, no doubt, excellence 

Its what it is, what it is 

And that's what it is, you see? (The suns shinin') 

Ha, Fire 

'Cause it is deeper, sweeter, richer, crisper 

Stronger reception and sharper picture 

Revolve around God, and involve with niggas 

These elements I perform my scripture 

And make Mos Def a classic modern figure 

Brooklyn it don't matter if you holler or whisper 

Your coming through clan, 'cause I'm right here with ya 

Ain't gotta edit the slang, I got it, I'll get ya 

Yo, brothers and sisters, fathers and mothers 

The lovers, the leavers, the doubters, believers 

The stayers, the quitters, the bitches, the niggas 

Rebel guerrillas the ghetto civilians 

y'all 'goin feel it from the first to the millionth 

It's extra, ordinary and plain 

I walk a thousand paces of light ahead of the game 

By the time you get where I'm standing, I'll be gone 

y'all make moves, but y'all just move on 

(Let the sun shine) 

I move in, and y'all must move on 

'Cause I move to strong 

And I know what my feet move for (Let the sunshine in) 

Made it go without a brand new car 

Made it fresh without a brand new song 

And give a fuck about what brand you are (The suns shining') 

I'm concerned what type of man you are 

What your principles and standards are 

You understand me y'all 

Be good to your family y'all 

No matter where your families are 

'Cause everybody needs family y'all 

Raise a hand, you understand me y'all 

Everybody needs family y'all 

Be good to your families dog 

Understand, no matter where your families are 

Everybody needs family dog 

Raise a hand, you understand me pa 

that's what it is, that's my man 

Family and my family Pencil Pete 

My man too, all our loved ones behind the walls 

All of those who still in the struggle 

Masada Malia, Son Dial la, Magic Mel 

(Let the sun shine) 

Life is real 

To all the real soldiers, black people (Let the sunshine in) 

We family y'all (The suns shining') 

Let it be bright
