SHAQUILLE O'NEAL

SHAQUILLE O'NEAL - In The Sun lyrics

(feat. Black Thought, Common, Joi)

[Common]

I spit feelings that soar over brick buildings

And get children and families to live better

Live whether rain or shine

Picture Com' free, is my frame of mind

My day combines from comedic to the gate of mines

Tastin my favorite wine, tryna stay divine

Realness around my neck, is my way to shine

I ain't made for time or age

My mind's a page that few can read

Made for you to breathe through the seeds I plant

Tear down Babylon, rebel missions

The hustler traditions carry on since Avalon parked dames

I battle long to spark days

Being the son that I am, got gramps offered ham for lint

She gave me the scriptures, told me to understand it

It's bug from my own planet I can see the sun

Waitin for the savior while I wait for me to come

I'm comin in the...

[Chorus x2: Joi]

Rain, rain, go away

I need ya sometime but not today

I wanna live, play, run, in the suuuuun!

[Black Thought]

The language is mine, I take advantage of that

I'm like the ghetto thug B-Boys, Brittanica black

I gotta style that man-handle the track

Thought, Common, and Shaq, ya couldn't hold the animal back

Me, I been all emcee since like '73

In South Philly with the 'fridgerator empty

I know the feeling of the whole world against me

I know the feeling of the game tryna pimp me, for real

It never break me, or make me move the thing off safety

while I maintain control

Rather process the info than swallow it whole

You never bothered breakin the mold, you out in the cold

Trustin in a fake nigga cuz he act and joke

Stead of dealin with the ac-tual

Yo, too many hard times, detour signs, and tears

And the police stay livin in constant fear

Another gunfight, where? In the sunlight

[Chorus x2: Joi]

[Shaquille]

It was all a dream, I used to read Word Up magazine

Now I reign supreme, sunshine hit the bling

Life; seen some of the strangest things

Fake niggaz and women, they tryna hit me for my cream

I touch a soul with this vision

I love to go back and re-live it cuz it seems so vivid

Before the money, and the fame, and the stardom

Before you schemed on Diesel, like what it cost em

Original, never ask where the style's from

And what about the haterz, that doubted the album

You didn't think B.I.G. could do it again

I'm top fifty with a ring, see I do it to win... (Heheh)

Now my name back on the streets

Name back in the jeeps

Can't tame my platinum speech

Ain't nuttin like being young and content

I'm comfortable with life, never worry where them chips is spent

Stop askin me about Kob'!

Y'all heard me say Twiz before, you seen the way I clutch the globe

Yo y'all niggaz ain't forget; the world is mine

I'm from the New Jeru's Brick City - and that's my sunshine

[Chorus x2: Joi]
