Thinking Of Sunshine
[Verse 1]All I have is my miseryA bucks and some cigarettesA perfect billboard model just kissed my cheekThat one morning the city sleptI've got a dirty mind but my shoes are cleanI don't look away cus' I choose to seeThe chain around your neck isn't jewelleryYou ain't foolin' me, cause I...Never had no shades to cry behindNever found the place I tried to findIf I told you so then I'd be lying, uhI was lost and made a change, of courseBut I'm still afraid of change, of courseSomeone told me "when it rains, it pours"
[Hook]I've been thinking of sunshine (sunshine)Through the pain and strifeI've been thinking of sunshineThrough the coldest days of life
[Verse 2]All I have is my historyStrolled the streets when a stranger passedHe spoke and, when I got to hear his storyI realized my life's not so badI used to have a job 'til they fired meI thought I was the person I strived to beNow everything is gone but that's fine with meCause my mind is free, and I...Never had no shades to cry behindNever found the place I tried to findIf I told you so then I'd be lying, uhI was lost and made a change, of courseBut I'm still afraid of change, of courseSomeone told me "when it rains, it pours"
[Hook]
[Verse 3]I never took nothing from no one, except bad adviceSome of my homies never overcame the setbacks of lifeLi, li, life has taught me two thingsLife has taught me two thingsTie your own shoestrings, sometimes we go through thingsI've done things, I do things I'm not always proud ofBut I smile through the struggle just as I've won the lottoI know reality is hard sometimes, it's easy to dreamIt's only when you close your eyes that you can see what I seeSee what I mean?
