I thank god everyday
For paving the way
Cause he made me what I am today
A young entrepreneur with amazing talent
In order 2 be the best you must take the challenge
I'm trying 2 be number 1 cause number 2 don't matter
People trying 2 pull you down when you climb the ladder
Hate 2 see you up but they love it when you down
That's why I'm always quiet when I come around
cause talk is cheap that's why I rap
I'm getting NBA money with no salary cap
Mama it feels good to put money in your mailbox
This for my niggas locked up in the cell blocks

[Chorus 2x]
Cause the sun don't shine
That's why I spit these rhymes
To ease my mind
For real I got to get away

In life you go through drama and pain
And when someone close dies it'll give you a migraine
And a whole lot of stress, a whole lot of tears
The days turn into nights, the nights turn into years
I'm not happy here, I'm on another atmosphere
I got to get away just to get my mind clear
That's why I smoke so much it relieves my stress
Just imagine everyday I got to wear my vest
I got to watch my back
Cause niggas hiding the jack
When you see these moving you like fuck you feel that
To all my niggas in jail you better keep your head up
To my niggas in the hood you better keep your bread up

[Chorus 2x]
Cause the sun don't shine
That's why I spit these rhymes
To ease my mind
For real I got to get away

If I died today I have lived my life
And if I could do it again Id do it twice
No more moving white or shooting dice
Or creeping late night trying to screw your wife
Cause I'm a changed man with the heart of a lion
Even if I was a midget id be fighting a giant
Ill never give up I'm from the home of the braves
I'm still ballin like pac from the cradle to the grave

[Chorus 3x]
Cause the sun don't shine
That's why I spit these rhymes
To ease my mind
For real I got to get away
