When the Sun Don’t Shine

When the sun don't shine And the day goes by When the lights go out And your tears don't dry When the sun don't shine And you're tumblin' down I will open up the sky Yeah Father, I gotta confess Woke up this morning, I'm blessed Remember my life was a mess I got the need to address that I've been a sinner before I cannot take it no more Ride every high being broke Smokin' and cookin' that shit, they don't like it But if they don't like it, I go Money on trees doesn't grow Neither can freedom be bought I'm runnin' the power to float Father, I need your advice Stop me, not rollin' the dice Wanna treat everyone nice Why they keep throwing the knives then? Why is it takin' so long? You know my Nikes are worn My momma, she probably knows I've been not smokin' it Smokin' and cookin' that shit Laughin' my troubles away My heart is weak but it's free They don't got nothin' on me When the sun don't shine And the day goes by When the lights go out And your tears don't dry When the sun don't shine And you're tumblin' down I will open up the sky Yeah Father, I know it feels right Puttin' my ego aside You need to be more precise How do I follow the light when I don't know nothin' 'bout me? Wanna do what I prefer Everyone's rollin' their eyes When I don't care about the things that I like, yeah Why are you wastin' your time? Why do you dream like a child? What are you doin' it for? You don't know nothin' 'bout work Tell a lie, "Need no advice" They be like, "What a surprise" I know the sun will arise Up, and not tellin' no lies, no Fater, I do what I love One hundred down to the core Forgive me for not being sure You know I've been here before (Standing on the roof, below the stars) When the sun don't shine And the day goes by When the lights go out And your tears don't dry When the sun don't shine And you're tumblin' down I will open up the sky Yeah (Standing on the roof, below the stars)
