Shine On Me (feat. Jussie Smollett) Lyrics

As merciless the crime, sometimes we turn the grind
But the sun will always shine, yeah
As merciless the crime, sometimes we turn to cry
But the sun will always shine, yeahOh, father, father
Can you hear?
Can you hear your children crying?
Can you see their tears?
To feed the ones you hold so dear,
Somebody dying in all history
Story of my life, right
Look at me, really look at me
heart of a champion
Eyes that I have seen
Murder on my street
Death on my block
Cops that be more
Criminal than cop
Daddy a king pimp,

Mama a hustler
What am I gonna be?
Who is up to?
Me, just me, doing it my way
Till I see sun rays
The sun will always shine, sun will always shine
Sun will always shine on me
So we don't let this crime
Take good care of where
The sun will always shine on me
Shine on meI said, one shot, two shot, three shot, four
Daddy, I can't take no more
I'm sick of watching windows before I walk out the door
I noticed that's what I'm here for it's a brighter day
These bars sit with the Lord, he know my story
I'ma tell it all and live large before i'm forty
Frank Gathers, this your daughter, everybody know it
???
The impact I did that, I'ma take this and sit back
And watch the chips stack, you dig that?
We started from the bottom, you gotta know the sun is always shiningThe sun will always shine, sun will always shine
Sun will always shine on me
So even if itss crime
Take good care of where
The sun will always shine on me
Shine on me
