peep the sunshine
peep the verse one time
gimme one try. yeah, it could be my last
or it could be our first. i seen us in the past
dreamed we'd end up baskin at the park
while i was listenin to tracks after dark
with a flashlight pad and pencil in my hand
writin verses like scrawled love letters you couldn't

wouldn't understand so i threw em in the trash
knew i didn't know no better so i never really asked
never took a chance seen you with crooks at the dance
so i thought you were booked in advance
but i was hooked in a trance never could be lookin past
eyes fixed on the lookin glass reality’s pushin back
shook my grasp loose took it with the good and bad you
said some things took em back truth's what i couldn't handle

few good men can but most don't
most can't till they hit a low point
and now i'm so damn hopeless
that i don't even hope, i just don't lose focus
and in the moments i'm with you
i feel ethereal but know what's real and don't miss you
i started writin rhymes for you but as i grew
i realized i was really writin this because of you

peep the sunshine
before it fades away
to another day

peep the sunshine
as it makes its way
to another place

there’s this girl i know who’s sort of like the earth
and for what it’s worth i couldn’t really stand her at first
always with wack fools who never put in work
old school in all the wrong ways, arranging her marriage at birth it seemed to be

all appropriation and no procreation
dudes fake life experience when she enters the situation
and it’s so fucking easy to get caught up in simple hating
when focusing on your own direction you tend to lose patience

for the others, so i watched my muse changing shape
with knowledge of what we could make if it wasn’t too late
patiently waited till she wasn’t the center of attention
then approached real smooth unlike all the other henchmen

cuz if it was up to me i’d catch every hottie in pjs
as opposed to at parties where dicks are as common as batons in relays
and when i caught her out of the limelight we vibed right
she dressed for the crowds that night but it was her caring side that i liked

and by caring i mean her concern for her well being
and speaking only with intent on swell meanings
but the belles fleeting i watched her succumb to the people
and for mere entertainment turn to flirtation with the lethal

forces of fame for capitalist gain forsaking her name
and body shit most prolly mistake her for another sexualized
dame, but i’ll hit it, to me it’s fair game, cuz i know
no one else does her quite the same yo

peep the sunshine
before it fades away
to another day

peep the sunshine
as it makes its way
to another place
