Life In the Sun

(album: K.R.I.T. IZ HERE - 2019)

[Big K.R.I.T.:]
I spent my life in the sun
Darkened complexion, I'm learning my lesson
Listen today, don't you boast when you pray
Yeah, never post where you lay
Jackers be robbing and plotting and killing too
Batman and Robin, they're villains too
Jokers, they smile and they wave
Colorful hair but they're dodging the fade
Never could surf but you riding the wave
Wire your jaw just to talk like Kanye
MAGA your hat just to feel like you paid
Bust down a chain just to feel like you made
I'm one of one like I drew in a cave
Like I ran through the maze
You a dope boy but it's probably a phase
'Til they search where you stay
And your partner get jammed and he tell what you say
Water for quarters, but who needs a blaze?
Summer with borders like how can we play?
Houses on fire, like where can we stay in the summer?

[Camper:]
Greatness is on the horizon
And the sun is rising (Whoa)
Oh, there ain't no more hiding
'Cause the sun is shining, shining
Someone I can confide in
I feel like the best I've been
Ever since you lived beside me
You showed me I was worth finding
Your greatness is on the horizon
And the sun is rising, the sun is rising

[Big K.R.I.T.:]
I spent my life in the sun, I pray for light when it's done
I gave my heart for the funds, just give it back when you done
Who needs a flame?
Not talking Blue for the change
Back to the future with lanes
We ain't the same
You took me from where I came
Bonfire, more lighter, propane
Igniter, most higher, not tamed
Highest fire, one higher than their flame
No firefighter or water pilot could maintain
Subtle glimmer, grandma simmer from her pain
Hot perms, no naps in that grain
Slick back, off track like that train
On a late night, just help but no pay
The doubts fire, too tired to say grace in the summer

[Camper:]
Greatness is on the horizon
And the sun is rising (Whoa)
Oh, there ain't no more hiding
'Cause the sun is shining, shining
Someone I can confide in
I feel like the best I've been
Ever since you lived beside me
You showed me I was worth finding
Your greatness is on the horizon
And the sun is rising, the sun is rising
