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 tumbling down
I will open up the sky
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
Rather be happy and broke, smoking and cooking the * 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 running the power to flow
Father, I need your advice
I'll be like rolling the dice
Wanna treat everyone nice, why they keep throwing their knives then?
Why is it taking so long?
You know my Nikes I want
My mama, she probably knows
I've been like smoking it
Smoking and cooking the *, laughing my troubles away
My heart is weak but it's free, they don't got nothing on me
When the sun don't shine, and the day goes by
When the lights go out, and you're tumbling down
I will open up the sky
When the sun don't shine, and you're tumbling down
I will open up the sky
Father, I know it feels right
Putting my ego aside
You need to be more precise
How do I follow the light when
I don't know nothing about me
Wanna do what I prefer
Everyone's rolling their eyes
When I talk about the things that I like, yeah
Why are you wasting your time?
Why do you dream like a child?
What are you doing in full?
You don't know nothing about work
Telling I need no advice
They be like, what a surprise
I know the sun will arise
I been not telling no lies, no
Father, I do what I love
One hundred down to the core
Forgive me for not being sure
You know I've been here before
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 tumbling down
I will open up the sky
Yeah
Standing on the roof
Beyond the stars
