When the lights hit you, honey
All the gold starts drippin' down
You can't believe what they all say
Yeah, there's nothing new under the sun
Under the sun, under the sun, oo woah oh
Under the sun, under the sun, under the sun, oo woah oh
Every day feels like groundhogs day
Same struggles, same truth
It doesn't matter who I know or how I look
Because you told me it's true
But this new mold has got me breaking my back
I slip up, my old habits relapse
Your promises have been my soundtrack
Plays on repeat in the back of my head like a cd that's scratched
Guess we'll see what I'm made of
When my molecules become famous
When the spotlight hits on all angles
And I'm blinded living this fable
Will the fame be fatal
Will I trade my peace for the payload
Will I trip up and lose my halo
Only time can tell, she didn't say though
When the lights hit you, honey
All the gold starts drippin' down
You can't believe what they all say
Yeah, there's nothing new under the sun
Under the sun, under the sun, oo woah oh
Under the sun, under the sun, under the sun, oo woah oh
I feel it slipping into my veins
Oh oh oh oh it's taking control
I guess it's true what they all say
Yeah, there's nothing new under the sun
Oh baby
Oh what it's like to be young, black, and gifted
I ain't spend no money on Christmas
Got way too much on my wishlist
Got way too much to get done now
Raise funds now, yet somehow I'm on cloud nine
Never come down, work sun-up till sun-down
Got the sun out, and nothing new
Just focus in on what you do
And who you are, don't beat the best, just be the bar
And play your part, don't play yourself
Play it smart, protect your heart
There's a lie, don't believe the lie
Get it out your mind and you're ahead before you start, 'cause
When the lights hit you, honey
All the gold starts drippin' down, yeah
Can't believe what they all say
'Cause there's nothing new under the sun
Under the sun, under the sun, yeah
Under the sun
