The Sun Knows My Name

V6

[Intro - Dark piano] Didn't wake up fixed. Woke up here. Opened the curtains anyway. [Verse 1 - Hard measured rap] Same skin, same scars, different morning, No need to check who the room belongs to. Feet on the floor, light through the blinds, Didn't know warmth could arrive this quiet. Thought joy needed proof I deserved a turn, Thought every good day had a catch to learn. Kept one eye back while the world went ahead, Living like the worst hadn't happened yet. Now I take coffee out into the air, Sit with the day without earning the chair. Not every shadow has something to say, I'm more than the things that they took away. [Build - Rising drums] Scared but strong. Still got days. But there's room in my life for a different phase. Head up— Let the daylight hit! [Chorus - Massive chant drop] HEY! HEY! LET IT SHINE! I GOT A LIFE AND THE DAYS ARE MINE! SUN ON MY SKIN! FEET ON THE GROUND! THE SUN KNOWS MY NAME— AND I'M SAYING IT LOUD! [Verse 2 - Double-time rap] I ain't forgetting the kid on the pavement, I ain't repainting the nights in the basement. I ain't pretending that pain made it fair, I'm making a life that has room for him there. Room for a laugh. Room for a mate. Room for a Sunday that doesn't feel late. Room for the music, the kick and the bass, Room to stop shrinking whenever there's space. Used to think healing would wipe out the past, Now I just want it to loosen its grasp. Still some days up, still some days down, But I'm done letting yesterday own right now. [Bridge - Piano only] I don't owe the darkness Every song I write. I can tell the truth With the sun in my eyes. [Final Build - Crowd] STILL HERE! (STILL HERE!) HEAD HIGH! (HEAD HIGH!) TURN THAT WHOLE FUCKING SYSTEM UP! [Final Chorus - Maximum drop] HEY! HEY! LET IT SHINE! I GOT A LIFE AND THE DAYS ARE MINE! SUN ON MY SKIN! FEET ON THE GROUND! THE SUN KNOWS MY NAME— AND I'M SAYING IT LOUD! [Outro - Beat cut] Some days I'm up. Some days I'm down. Today— I'm stepping out.
