No Sunshine

What is time? Time is when a man is trying to make time with your

woman,

but your doing time behind bars and your time is standing still.

Yo

Frost, kick it to these people for real you know what I'm

saying?

[verse 1 - Frost]

Time, sits through the hour glass, through night and day

and I watch as the games people play

It's like do unto others than split

and if you can't back up what you say then you ain't shit (yeah)

I've seen the manifestations of the street

so why can't I confess what I see on a drumbeat

like just last night (yo what happened)

I watched these two vatos get in a crazy fight

one of them was quick to pull a knife

he stabbed him in the heart and now he's doing life

in prison at the age of 21 (yeah)

living on death row cause he couldn't let go

caught in the web of violence (damn)

roll deep when they creep, and move in silence of the lambs (yo)

a tattooed tear dropped as the iron gates slam

[chorus - Bill Withers & Frost]

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

Ain't no sunshine - Frost

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

Ain't no sunshine - Frost

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

Anytime, hey - Frost

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

Ain't no sunshine - Frost

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

Ain't no sunshine - Frost

Ain't no sunshine, Anytime - Bill Withers

[verse 2 - Frost]

Damn, damn ain't that a shame?

you're lost so take the caution don't play the game

should've listen to the Frost when I was trying to come across

to you

but no you didn't think (sucker)

you just keep getting yourself more deep until you sink

so there's no one else to thank but yourself

so go ahead take bow for a job well done

but you'll never see the day of the sunshine or the fun times

just the old days and your old ways

corrupt and wicked

out there doing dirt, instead of just kicking it

pow pow bang bang and all that noise (yeah)

yeah you and all your homeboys

take time to read between the lines

cause ain't no sunshine

[chorus]

[verse 3 - Frost]

(yo kid) I know about being macho

callin' the shots the big time head honcho (yeah)

but here's something even more gacho

one of my homeboys is your old lady Sancho

yo shit happens

I know the lights of all these people right as I'm rapping

while you sit in a cell writing a letter

saying when you get out, your things will be better (right)

but man she couldn't wait

so she's going out on a date

with every Tom, Dick, and Harry

and if you ask me, your shit's getting scary

so how you gonna handle this

when your home's in Los Angeles

acting so scandalous

yo, you can't blame her you didn't take the time

and now, ain't no sunshine

[chorus]

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

Ain't no sunshine - Frost

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

Ain't no sunshine - Frost

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

That's for you, '92 you know what I'm saying? - Prince Teddy

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

Ain't no sunshine - Frost

Ain't no sunshine - Bill Withers

Damn - Frost

[interlude - Prince Teddy]

So if you don't wanna do no time, you better take time to try to

draw

the line you know what I'm saying? Or you're gonna be the next

fool in

line

doing time, you know what I'm saying? Like my man said...
