No Sunshine lyrics - DMX

(from "Exit Wounds" soundtrack)

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

Ya niggas know to be gone, everytime, 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

[*boom*] 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

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

Ya niggas know to be gone, everytime, cause we don't play

Everytime, cause we don't play...

Everytime, 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 9's, 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 its goin dizzy

When it comes to that flow, I gets busy

Who is he? Dark Man, of the unknown

(GRRR, ARF!) 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'mma 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, 'til niggas 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

Ya niggas know to be gone, everytime, cause we don't play

Everytime, cause we don't play...

Everytime, cause we don't play...

And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

Whatchu 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

Ain't you hear this shit? Damn right, I can finish shit

If you caught that verse without a rewind you can see mine

But you 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 nuttin 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

And 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

Ya niggas know to be gone, everytime, cause we don't play

Everytime, cause we don't play...

Everytime, cause we don't play...
