Find My Own Way
Hook: 11 sec
I’m lost in this rap world
People telling me say this word (Word?)
Talk about this talk about that (Naw, I don’t think so)
that’s that heat, but I got to find my own way see
Verse 1 31 sec
They don’t know me, but if they listened to a track
I bet they’d pause, say hey I like that
Don’t judge me and if I show you my song don’t lose it
Cause I bet you get to know me through my music
I’m know I’m not alone but I’m moving against the grain
Cause I’m not telling you stuff that’s not me,
from that I got nothing to gain
I got nothing to spill that pain with
Cause when I do that you can relate
But when I do that I feel great
I lift a weight off my chest
and I impress all the people cause I flow so smooth
But remember I don’t do it strictly for you
I say what’s on my mind and if you can sing along
Then more power to you cause is it really wrong?
So if this song don’t make it to the radio
I just say that’s ok and go on movin’ findin my oooown way yo.
Hook X2 1:13
I’m lost in this rap world
People telling me say this word (Word?)
Talk about this talk about that (ya! Do that!)
that’s that heat, but I got to find my own way see
Verse 2 1:33
Back street alleys looking for the shortcuts
Never got me no where, never showed no nuts
Dead ends was all I found
And a couple of bully’s that beat me to the ground
Who Says I can’t move a crowd with some lyrics?
But you ain’t ready yet, you dun wanna hear it
Sick of people arguing over who’s the best
Substance flowing out of my chest and you, well you can have the rest
Every time I write it helps me just a little bit
But it helps me more when I get the courage
to say it in front of a crowd in front of my mom
One day everyone will know SunE-P drops bombs
But until that time, I’m stickin to my morals
Conscience saying otherwise so it’s one big quarrel
But if I give up on my words that have some meaning
What do the rest of you got left to believe in?
Hook X2 2:15
I’m lost in this rap world
People telling me say this word (Word?)
Talk about this talk about that (Naw, I don’t think so)
that’s that heat, but I got to find my own way see
Bridge 2:37
I was never good at taking directions
And look at where it got me, now it’s perfection
I got my own selection of what I like
And still people showin me affection every single night
And they site my verses straight from their memory
No, Not yet, but it’s gonna happen see, you just wait
I got a plan, it’s finding my own way
No matter what they say! Now SunE-P take em away!
Verse 4 2:57
So I take the stage and lights start flashin
People everywhere man music starts blastin
And the flows start clashin from what I wanna say
So I guess I’m ice cubin, but today wasn’t a good day
Now take look at who this song is featuring
And the voice that’s creepin in
Kinda sound the same? Doesn’t it?
Plus it’s the name, and he don’t cuss in it
So far from the norm but people still seem to be discussing it
Find my own way, but I keep on winnin I’m like Milwaukee’s
Rookie of the Year, Call me Brandon Jennings
Now say it one more time with me
S U N to the E P now I’m finally free
I can Finally breathe and take a break
Ok back to the mic cause you know what’s at stake
So what’s one less rapper, you can do the math
But it won’t be me, cause I’m designing my own path
Hook X2 3:39
I’m lost in this rap world
People telling me say this word (Word?)
Talk about this talk about that (Naw, I don’t think so)
that’s that heat, but I got to find my own way see

Love, when you’re thinking of that special someone
Just Live, cause remember that it was a gift
Verse 1 43 sec
Hey it’s my 1st album happy anniversary
What better gift to give to you than hearing a verse from me
It’s no curse you see I’m blessed to be SunE-P and I bet
I’ve moved on since back in the day I’ve forgotten the rest
forgotten the stress
But I have never forgotten my roots
Do I love rap? Then my answer is yes
Cause I posses everything that I have assessed in each one of my rhymes
I’ve paid the dues for crimes cause sometimes
I feel like I’m busting loose
and other days it’s just a bad day, and I don’t know what to do
So I kick a track, write a verse a two
Remember somebody’s always got it off worse than you
So just sit back listen to every word that I say
And when you have a bad day, it’s ok
You turn that frown upside down, and wipe of that look of disgust
And listen to this hook, that I’m bout to bust
So

Smile, life is too short to give to give up now
Cry, when you fall as long as you gave it your all

Just Live, cause remember that it was a gift
Verse 2: 1:49
Now I must say, I’ve had some pretty bad days
But I put my trust in the Lord and his Almighty Ways
So for Jemaine and Megan you know you in a better place
And I know right now, you’d want a smile on my face
You’d want me to try I got the chance
So I take my four little words, and leave it in your hands
So put your thing down flip it and reverse it
As I say it over and I rehearse it cause
I write till I get carpal tunnel in my wrists
They can never take me under As Raise up my fists
I will fight for what I believe in till I’m buried in the dust
I will keep on praying till I spill my guts
Cause I got the glory, I got the story
and now I got my best friend back so everything honkey dory
Dazany SunE-P Danny and Phillippe
Nothing can bring us down not even a bad day so

Say what You Need To Say
Verse 1 12 sec
Now this situation is really sticky
And I’m not sure I quite know just how to deal with it,
So I fill my head with
all these crazy questions
Sometimes I really forget to count all of my blessings
That I’ve been given, you know they are for a reason
I just gotta hold my head up and find something to believe in
My world feels like its crashing down all around me
And it really sucks that I thought it was THE ONE who had found me
I don’t say that very lightly because I believe it as truth
And who knew this would be the way that I’m spittin in the booth
to a beat that was supposed to be a love song
And now that it’s all gone
the lyrics get erased
And I wipe the tears from my face
I’m giving it my all to fix what was broken
But this glue I’m trying with it just isn’t workin
even when I close my eyes thinking I can escapey,
the more this memory just seems to embrace me
Hook 1:02 sec
So I’m saying what I need to say
But then I’m shutting off the lights
I’m disappearing into the night
What can I say that you haven’t heard already
It just goes to show every fairy tale, isn’t a happy ending
So I’m saying what I need to say
Even though my heart wants me to stay
I love you and kisses just drift away
What can I say that you haven’t heard already
It just goes to show every fairy tale, isn’t a happy ending
Verse 2 1:27
So this crime took place just a little time ago
But I know this memory will last longer than I go on
And so on and so on, but I gotta stay strong and
It’s not like this is a new one
I’ve been hurt before
I just can’t ignore what was said or what was did
I got a new nickname for you, it’s the heartbreak kid
Cause I really didn’t ever need to endure this
And right about now, I sure, could, use some Assurance.
Verse 3 1:52
Ma amour tu sais je taime
but you was already messin with him
It wasn't hard to know that you were tryna pretend
since it was all a fairy tale like brothers grim
at first without you was like a missing limb
but now you can move if you wanna kinda like mims
so it can be yo last day like lil kim
I thought you were real but, you're animated like the sims.
Hook 2:17
So I’m saying what I need to say
But then I’m shutting off the lights
I’m disappearing into the night
What can I say that you haven’t heard already
It just goes to show every fairy tale, isn’t a happy ending
So I’m saying what I need to say
Even though my heart wants me to stay
I love you and kisses just drift away
What can I say that you haven’t heard already
It just goes to show every fairy tale, isn’t a happy ending
Verse 4 2:41
now when I see you in the hallways or see you in the street
its nothing but disappoint in my eyes as I can feel the grief
cause after dealing with the person that broke up with me
nothing comes before I, not even the letter "G"
tu etais le personne de qui,
je dis parce que de toi, je sais, je suis
after noticing the person who you be
all i can say is no, thanks sunne-p
for helping me see that all girls can't want me man
but the girl of yo dreams shall be as God proclaimed
all within right timing so please just wait
cuz if you do, then I'm sure that you'll see her face
and if she's the one, i ask you to please just stay
away from sex as God wants cuz that wedding day
will be so much better than a normal day
cause everything is most better in a moral way.
Hook X2 3:31
So I’m saying what I need to say
But then I’m shutting off the lights
I’m disappearing into the night
What can I say that you haven’t heard already
It just goes to show every fairy tale, isn’t a happy ending
So I’m saying what I need to say
Even though my heart wants me to stay
I love you and kisses just drift away
What can I say that you haven’t heard already
It just goes to show every fairy tale, isn’t a happy ending

True Colors
Intro
This song is about someone who never thought they were good enough, but really she’s the greatest.
Verse 1 21 sec
I’ve been waiting for someone like you my whole life
and now I have it and I am NOT gonna hide it
its not about black and white
its about love and fight
it’s about true colors shining bright
Be who you are that’s all I ever ask
That’s who I love, that’s why I look past your past
Cause true love lasts and it perseveres
Especially every time you’re cheesin ear to ear
*And it makes me smile even when I’m sad
So take my true colors and hold my hand*
My life couldn’t get any better right now
so when you get trapped in dark clouds imma get you out
cause when you doubt your color fades
blue to gray red to pink and to think it’s only been a little while
so go on and show me that thing that I love, your pearly white smile (Ok Let’s Go)
Hook X2 1:00
True Colors shine the brightest
True friends hold you the tightest
True love is what you thought you’d never find
So let’s make that dream into real life
Verse 2 1:21
Should I pinch you to make sure it’s not a fairy tale
Open your eyes yes I’m really there
And I’ll always be there even when the lights turn out
And it’s black as night we’ll still shine out
I see you for who you really are and you see me for who I truly am
When I’m sad you make me SunE-P again
Why is it so hard to understand?
That I really wanna be your man
Why *Pause* haven’t I found someone perfect until now,
wait *Pause* I’m glad cause it’s you that I’ve found
wouldn’t want it to be any other way
cause when it rains you got that rainbow
but you hold back because you don’t want the stain to show
I don’t care about he say she say they say
Cause what we say goes
And let me tell you bout something that I really know (Here we go)
Hook X2
True Colors shine the brightest
True friends hold you the tightest
True love is what you thought you’d never find
So let’s make that dream into real life
Verse 3 2:21
Paint me a picture in my head that I’ll never forget
And make that memory last till I’m dead
Put me up on your easel
I’m your Da Vinci you’re my Mona Lisa
Show me something that’s hidden in your heart
Cause you know it’s the most beautiful kind of art
And kissssss something that I’d miss
If I couldn’t feel your tenderness everyday
And if I was blind I’m glad I could still see
The love that you bless me with and yes
*I see what’s deep down inside
And I know you hold back when you cry*
And the way you make me feel is indescribable
That’s why true colors never lie to ya
Someday maybe you’ll just see what I see
So let’s make that dream a reality! (Oh ya!)
Hook X4
True Colors shine the brightest
True friends hold you the tightest
True love is what you thought you’d never find
So let’s make that dream into real life
Outro 3:40

Where has the Hip Hop Gone (It’s Right Here)
Verse 1 9 sec
Turn on the radio and I start to jam
Cruising in my beat up car in the A.M.
Gotta get to work and I start singing along
Thinking this has been way to long
Since I wrote a song wrote something from the heart
So writing in the dark
Thinking of perfect lines that intertwine with the meaning I mean to say
but you know it never comes out that way
The way that you want
But you keeping striving anyway
Cause someday that dream you always wanted will come true
In some way or not it’ll work out
Anyway you thought hip hop was on its way out
It never was far from where it started
Cause you know that’s where your heart is
That’s where the passion lies
And you know God cries too
So flip that tape to side two
There’s more that you gotta speak
So don’t be weak and raise your voice
To a level so everyone can hear
Hip hop never left, it’s always been right here
Hook 58 sec
And this goes out to every artist
When you kept writing when times was the hardest
Never giving up on what you thought was true (true)
And everyone around making millions, that’s everyone but you
Ya’ll walking around acting like
Hip hop’s gone took a hike
But it’s been right here never left the scene
It’s been right here inside of SunE-P
Verse 2 1:16
Right where I left off right where the bus stops
I put my headphones on and my breath stops
Here is the most beautiful thing that I’ve heard in awhile
And it’s song written by me so I got to smile
Cause I can’t apologize for the wrongs I’ve done I just try and make them right
So that’s why I write and that’s why I rhyme
I know it takes some time to figure me out, what I usually say
But thanks for still listening what can I say I’m just that way
Complicated as a rubrics cube
But when you figure it out I hope you use it too
That’s the power you had within you along
You got the strength God gave you, it’s never gone
So no matter how small you feelin in this place
Hip hop never left you; you know it can’t be replaced
Hook 1:55
And this goes out to every artist
When you kept writing when times was the hardest
Never giving up on what you thought was true
And everyone around making millions, that’s everyone but you
Ya’ll walking around acting like
Hip hop’s gone took a hike
But it’s been right here never left the scene
It’s been right here inside of SunE-P
Verse 3 2:14
So I keep on thinking, and I do it a lot
Am I really giving all that I got?
Cause hip hop was never really a kind of game
It was more of a pass fail kind of shame
Kind of thang that I did in my spaaare time
And now I feel like brother can you spare a dime?
Cause I refuse to believe that just cuz I’m white
That’s why people think I’m awesome and I got all the hype
So I type my feelings and I know you just like me
And who knows you just might be the next best thing
But to all the haters you can just bite me and so I still (think)
So I still bring the same kind of positive message I was meant to articulate
But still I gotta wonder, was I too little too late
hip hop never left me, Now that’s what I call fate
Outro
This was just made to show you, just stay true to whatever you love and what you believe in and everything will be ok. Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes you just need inspiration, but trust me if it's a passion it can Never leave you.
Hook
And this goes out to every artist
When you kept writing when times was the hardest
Never giving up on what you thought was true
And everyone around making millions, that’s everyone but you
Ya’ll walking around acting like
Hip hop’s gone took a hike
But it’s been right here never left the scene
It’s been right here inside of SunE-P

Anti-Anthem
YA!! People being saying ohh SunE-P can’t rhyme, all his stuff is simple. But that’s what I do. I’m sick of people talking about the same thing. All materialistic, there’s more to that. So change your lyrics up. Be versatile. You Want an Anthem? Well this is an Anti-Anthem. And If you don’t like it, You can stick it up where the sun don’t’ shine. get it? That’s where I’m not.
Verse 1 24 sec
Now when I put my headphones on I’m drifting away
Something new from SunE-P but still the same
So I’m taking you back into the day
What I grew up on.
Might be that gangsta flow
But I ain’t gangsta no
Bout my lyrics
so I had to do something this hard so you would finally hear it
cryptological is now a Rosetta stone
I got a vendetta with what seems to be going on
been happening for far too long sooo Everybody say
they don’t like what they play
on the radiowaves
But nobody seems do nutthing bout it
So did I really need to shout it?
I prefer to quietly creep right up in your veins
I swear I’m gonna freak out again if somebody calls me Eminem
SO here’s the change that you been waiting on
Speak Easy know what I’m spittin on
Words Smoke as much as the HOVE, 8th so hazy
I came to bring the Wraith, that’s why I’m going JCray-Z
Hook 1:08
This is the anti-anthem
Get your hands up, ya if you clap em
Loud as it goes, as long it’s Emotion it flows
And if you with me, then you already know
So
This is the anti-anthem
Get your hands up, ya if you clap em
Take Two deep breaths now spit it straight from chest
And now I just let all ya’ll do the rest
Verse 1:31
Do I got enough left? Breath up in this chest
To expel Death of Autotune, put two to its chest
Strangle it with this microphone chord, yes!
Who’s comin with me as I continue my quest?
What would you suggest?
That I wear a bullet proof vest?
But don’t get it wrong, I do respect the grind respect the hustle
I just don’t do well with those that wanna muscle me away from what I made so I gotta say
I got voice of my own so I’mma use it
Lit the truth and then watch it everybody try and defuse it
What’s wrong with a little positive message?
Did I really have to do it this hard if I wanted to test it?
Apparently so, so now everybody know, What SunE-P about
But there still remains that question that be giving me some doubt
Where the real people at?
Am I the Legend and you be the map? So I cont.
Hook 2:15
This is the anti-anthem
Get your hands up, ya if you clap em
Loud as it goes, as long it’s Emotion it flows
And if you with me, then you already know
So
This is the anti-anthem
Get your hands up, ya if you clap em
Take Two deep breaths now spit it straight from chest
And now I just let all ya’ll do the rest
Verse 3 2:37
Now I got cut off once again
by the hook that everybody like to sing
I want people to recite more than they can bite
To da cypha the meaning, like Lupe I’m Beaming
Anyway, I meant legend like I’m the only one left on this earth
That try and rhyme without a curse
So Sinima, Just bring em on
I got beats I can burn em on
DJ GMO (You know what to do) now Turn em ON
Frankie you with me? YEA!
That’s what I thought
And I got so much assurance that it can’t be bought
I got an army on this album and I already know
An Anti-Anthem like this, can’t be found on the radio
So Limewire the Ish out of this, oops my bad I just let it slip
So Dazany wipe em out and give em that quench
If real hip hop stinks, than I guess that just means I got that stench.
Hook 3:22
This is the anti-anthem
Get your hands up, ya if you clap em
Loud as it goes, as long it’s Emotion it flows
And if you with me, then you already know
So
This is the anti-anthem
Get your hands up, ya if you clap em
Take Two deep breaths now spit it straight from chest
And now I just let all ya’ll do the rest
