No Sunshine
What is time?
Time is when a man is trying to make time with your woman
But youre doing time behind bars and your time is standing still
Yo, Frost, kick it to these people for real you know what Im saying?
Time, sifts through the hourglass, through night and day
And I watch as the games people play
Its like do unto others than split
And if you cant back up what you say then you aint ****
(Yeah)
Ive seen the manifestations of the street
So I can manifest what Ive seen on a drum beat
Like just last night
( Yo, what happened?)
I watched these two vatos get in a crazy fight
One of them was quick to pull a knife
He stabbed him in the heart and now hes doing life
In prison at the age of 21
(Yeah)
Living on death row cause he couldnt let go
Caught in the web of violence
(Damn)
Roll deep when they creep and move in silence of the lambs
(Yo)
A tattooed tear dropped as the iron gates slam
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, anytime, hey
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, anytime
Damn, damn aint that a shame?
Youre lost so take the caution dont play the game
Shouldve listen to the Frost when I was trying to come across to you
But no you didnt think
(Sucker)
You just keep getting yourself more deep until you sink
So theres no one else to thank but yourself
So go ahead take bow for a job well done
But youll never see the day of the sunshine or the fun times
Just the old days and your old ways
Corrupt and wicked
Out there doing dirt, instead of just kicking it
Pow pow, bang bang and all that noise
(Yeah)
Yeah, you and all your homeboys
Take time to read between the lines
Cause aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, anytime, hey
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, anytime
(Yo, Kid)
I know about being macho
Calling the shots the big time head honcho
( Yeah)
But heres something even more gacho
One of my homeboys is your old ladys Sancho
Yo, **** happens
A number lights up on his beeper right as Im rapping
While you sit in a cell writing a letter
Saying when you get out, your things will be better
(Right)
But man she couldnt wait so shes going out on a date
With every Tom , **** and Harry
And if you ask me, your ****s getting scary
So how you gonna handle this
When your hos in Los Angeles, acting so scandalous?
Yo, you cant blame her you didnt take the time
And now, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, thats for you , 92
You know what Im saying? Anytime, yeah
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine
Aint no sunshine, anytime, damn
So if you dont wanna do no time
You better take time to try to draw the line
You know what Im saying?
Or youre gonna be the next fool in line doing time
You know what Im saying? Like my man said
Aint no sunshine, aint no sunshine fool
Aint no sunshine, aint nothing happening up there
You know what Im saying? Aint no sunshine, anytime
Yo, me and Frost is out of here, peace
There just aint no sunshine
