DMX - No Sunshine lyrics

It's dark, and hell is hot

Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
'cause when it's on
You niggas know to be gone
Every time, 'cause we don't play

"Who turned out the lights?" is
What niggas be sayin'
Now you don't wanna fight
But y'all niggas be playin'
Thinkin' it's alright
Keep playin' with that role
And you gonna know the night
When you layin' in that hole
Dirt gettin' tossed in yo' grave
Now it's all over
Preacher said "You was brave
" but now it's all over
You just one of the many, plenty
I done gave it to ain't no savin' you
No matter how many tears your moms cried
Ain't gon' bring yo' ass back
Plus in hell you gon' fry
Why? But now the only two relative questions
Is "Do we bury him or burn? Any suggestions?"
Either way, you up out of here for good
Now when niggas mention your name
They knockin' on wood (Aight)
Did I, get my, point across?
Another body on the shottie
Another joint I toss

Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
'cause when it's on
You niggas know to be gone
Every time, 'cause we don't play
Every time, 'cause we don't play
Every time, 'cause we don't play

It ain't no sunshine when the
Dark Man comes out
And I want mine, so I plan to keep my gun out
We got four 9s, so niggas run in and run out
But I bust mine
'cause I'd like to hear some shouts
Get at me dog
Niggas know how it's goin dizzy
When it comes to that flow, I gets busy
Who is he? Dark Man, of the unknown
(Grrr, argh) One dog, one bone
Now who ain't goin' home? Looks like you
You hear strike one, talkin' shit, strike two
Won't be a strike three
'cause I don't play fair
I'ma look you in your eye while
He hit you from the rear be like, "yeah"
Holdin' you up 'cause you fallin' (What?)
The Lord ain't comin', so nigga stop callin'
You was ballin', a minute ago
In it for dough
'Til it was, "Yo, I swear to God
I didn't know"

Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
'cause when it's on
You niggas know to be gone
Every time, 'cause we don't play
Every time, 'cause we don't play
Every time, 'cause we don't play

And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
What you think you gon' get
Fuck around with my dough?
Just so it ain't no mistakes, this is my show
One (one) , two (two) , three, here I go
Your shit is quick, and your shit is slick
But this shit is thick
And you hear this shit? Damn right
I can finish shit
If you caught that verse without a
Rewind you can see mine but you'll be blind
I'll do it 360 and come up from behind
Tap you on your shoulder
Have you turnin' around
Hit you with somethin' that'll have
You burnin' the ground
Be like, "Damn, ain't nothin' left of money
But a pile of ash" life is good
So please enjoy it while it lasts
'Cause you know ain't got much longer to go
The quicker you go depends on
The stronger the flow
Well niggas know, I don't give a fuck
Right or wrong
There ain't no sunshine when it's on

Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
'cause when it's on
You niggas know to be gone
Every time, 'cause we don't play
Every time, 'cause we don't play
Every time, 'cause we don't play
