lyrics

Mister Sunray, hey hey
Whatcha say?
Mister, Mister,
What’s the word for the day.

The word for today is: Stop and chill
You act ill , you get your cap pealed
Here’s the deal, or better yet, the real
Blood was spilled for some shoes and a meal
Starts with a brew while hanging with your crew
So whatcha wanna do, whatcha wanna do?
Lets go to the park before it gets dark
You see the park after dark is sure to start
Trouble, a scuffle, don’t get caught in the shuffle
Cause I’m not down G, so back up off me
Bounty clown see, but don’t try to count me out
I’m Black with no doubt

chorus

The word for today is: Stop the violence
Seems like now, I can’t get a moment of silence
Without the gunshots that echo in my mind
Now I got time, makes me rewind
Back to my days on the block,
when I used to take walks with my pops
I used to say: Pops can you tell me the deal?
Since I know you know the flow, can you tell me the real?
He said: Son, this is my philosophy,
Don’t believe none of what you hear, half of what you see,
and kid never take another life,
unless your life is the price
Now my pops was realistically cool that way,
and these was his words for today

chorus

Now the words you have heard
are verbs for the nerve and
The point of this joint is not to sound absurd
But to detect the incorrect, collect, inject,
and gain some respect.
You see the expression of this lesson
is for the mind, be it free.
Cause things in this world don’t come easily
So listen to your pops, he should know the deal
be at peace with yourself and know when to chill
Cause you live your whole life, and I hope you live it wise.
See the rays of the sun are sure to open up your eyes.
