The title "Every Day"(2006) on the album Street Smarts exactly alike in titles (when read) with the other Incognito's famous tune "Everyday"(1995). They are often tagged totec radio.

Incognito Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Any day now you'll close the door, and walk away
I'll be picking through the pieces and wondering how it came to this
If things don't go the way you want it
Well that's the way it goes
These photographs remind me
Of all the things I said
On the day that we first met
But ain't that just like you baby
Ain't that just like you
Ain't that like you
Used to be your sun in my sky
It's all over and the days go by
Used to be your sun in my sky
It ain't been easy to slowly watch you go
I wonder if you know just what you're doin' to me
Knowing what we've been through before, what am I say
You've been acting strangely lately, so far away yet you're next to me
When things are not the way they should be
Gotta know when to let it go
These photographs remind me
Of all the things I said
And the promises I made you
On the day that we first met
But ain't that just like you baby
Ain't that just like you
Ain't that like you
Used to be your sun in my sky
It's all over and the days go by
Used to be your sun in my sky
It ain't been easy to slowly watch you go
You been doing me wrong
But I'd have you back if it were mine to choose
You been doing me wrong
But I'd still have you back if it were mine to choose
Used to be your sun in my sky
It's all over and the days go by
Used to be your sun in my sky
It ain't been easy to slowly watch you go
Used to be your sun in my sky
Till the clouds came over and the night set in
Used to be your sun in my sky
It ain't been easy to slowly watch you go, oh no
The lyrics of "Your Sun My Sky" by Incognito feat. Maysa explore the end of a relationship and the feelings of heartbreak and loss that come with it. The song is primarily focused on the singer's perspective and their struggles to come to terms with the fact that their partner is leaving them. The opening lines express the difficulty in finding the right words to say in the face of an impending breakup, and the sense of inevitability as their partner prepares to walk away. The singer is left to pick up the pieces and try to make sense of what went wrong.
The song references photographs as a reminder of the promises the singer made to their partner when they first met. The lyrics suggest that their partner may be at fault for the relationship falling apart, as they have been acting strangely and distant. However, despite feeling wronged by their partner's behavior, the singer still expresses a willingness to take them back if given the chance, highlighting the complexities of love and the conflicting emotions that arise when a relationship ends.
Overall, "Your Sun My Sky" is a poignant and emotional depiction of heartbreak and the challenges of moving on from a failed relationship. The song is a testament to the power of music as a means of expressing and cathartically processing difficult emotions.

Of all the things I said

On the day that we first met
on the day we first met each other.
But ain't that just like you baby
This behavior is typical of you, my dear.

This is just how you are.

...it's important to recognize when it's time to move on and let go.
You been doing me wrong
You've been mistreating me and causing me harm.
But I'd have you back if it were mine to choose
However, if it were solely up to me, I'd still want you back in my life.
Till the clouds came over and the night set in
But the metaphorical clouds rolled in, causing darkness to fall over our relationship.
It ain't been easy to slowly watch you go, oh no
It has been a painful experience to see you leave me little by little.
