Sun Don't Shine Lyrics


I thank God everyday for pavin' the way
'Cause he made me what I am today
A young entrepreneur with amazin' talent
In order to be the best you must take the challenge
I'm tryin' a be number one 'cause number two don't matter
People try to pull you down when you climb the ladder
Niggaz hate to 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 gettin' NBA money with no salary cap
Momma, it feel good puttin' money in your mailbox
This for my niggaz locked up in the cell blocksSun don't shine
That's why I spit these rhymes
To ease my mind
For real, I gotta get awaySun don't shine
That's why I spit these rhymes
To ease my mind
For real, I gotta get awayIn life, you go through joy and pain
And when somebody close die, it give you a migraine

And a whole lot a stress, a whole lot a tears
Days turn into nights, nights turn into years
I'm not happy here, I want another atmosphere
I gotta get away, just to get my mind clear
That's why I smoke so much, 'cause it relieve my stress
Just imagine, everyday I gotta wear my vestI gotta watch my back 'cause niggaz plottin' a jack
When you see these movin' like crack, you feel that
And to my niggaz in jail, you better keep your head up
And to my niggaz in the hood, keep your bread upBut the sun don't shine
That's why I spit these rhymes
To ease my mind
For real, I gotta get awaySun don't shine
That's why I spit these rhymes
To ease my mind
For real, I gotta get awayIf I died today, shit, I lived my life
And if I could do it again, I'd do it twice
No mo' movin' white or shootin' dice
Or creepin' late night tryin' a screw your wife
'Cause I'm a changed man, with the heart of a lion
Even if I was a midget, I'd fight a giant
I never give up, I'm from the home of the Braves
I'm still ballin' like Pac, from the cradle to the graveBut the sun don't shine
That's why, I spit these rhymes
To ease my mind
For real, I gotta get awayBut the sun don't shine
That's why, I spit these rhymes
To ease my mind
For real, I gotta get awaySun don't shine
That's why, I spit these rhymes
To ease my mind
For real, I gotta get away

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Wesley Eric Weston, Jr. (born March 3, 1981), better known by his stage name Lil' Flip, is a multi-Platinum American rapper. He is known for his freestyle ability and claims to have been on 1000 mixtapes.

Lil' Flip's career was launched when he released his first album "The Leprechaun". The album quickly gained national attention and spawned the hit single "I Can Do That". The album sold over 100,000 copies regionally and gained attention from Def Jam South, A & R, and well-known Houston rapper Scarface. He was briefly signed to Def Jam, but abruptly left the label a few years later after concerns about his financial earnings. He soon signed to Loud Records and began recording his first national debut album.

While recording his album, he was apparently shot by unknown assailants in a drive-by shooting. He survived the attack and pressed on to finish the album. At the age of 20, Lil' Flip released his sophomore album "Undaground Legend", his first nationally released album, which included the hit single "The Way We Ball" and a remix to his hit "I Can Do That". The album reached platinum status even though it didn't get much promotion from Loud Records.

Lil' Flip recorded his third album "U Gotta Feel Me" on Sony Records. This album was more commercial and featured Ludacris, Three 6 Mafia, and others. The album debuted at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and #3 on the Hip-Hop/R&B charts. It quickly became a crossover success with the Billboard Hot 100 Top 20 single "Game Over". The single used the Namco Pac-Man beat and the video showed Lil' Flip getting a tattoo while rapping to the single. The single reached #1 on the hip-hop charts. His follow-up single, the lover's anthem "Sunshine" featuring Lea, became the second hit single on Lil' Flip's album and went to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. It gained numerous requests on MTV 2 and BET. The album was certified double platinum.

Lil' Flip is known for his unique screwed style of freestyling (a form of slowed down rap technique) and for always releasing double disc CDs whenever he releases an album. He credits all of his success to the late DJ Screw and has tattooed DJ Screw's name on his arms. Lil' Flip has been credited for his lyrics by Three 6 Mafia, David Banner, Fam-Lay, Young Buck, UGK, Ludacris, among others. He has announced himself as the "King of The South" and the "Freestyle King".
