Sunshine
Lupe Fiasco Lyrics

Fresh to def she is
She's incredibly fresh and stylish

From her steps to the set she is
She's stylish from head to toe, and all aspects of her life are impeccably curated

So "death" might not let me live
Her impact on his life is so profound that death would be a small price to pay for their time together

Ya dig
Do you understand?

Had a feeling that it would be a day like this
He had a premonition that something special would happen on this day

The orchestra in my mind don't play like this (naw)
This situation is so unique that it's like nothing he's ever experienced before

But I'm prepared for it / Got a lil rare for it
He's ready for whatever comes his way and is putting his best foot forward

Brushed off my airs / Even cut my hair for it
He's made a conscious effort to present himself in the best possible light

'Cause normally I don't care for it / Don't even be looking for like, like that / Then there go it / Yea right over there so I prepare the poet
Normally, he doesn't seek out these types of experiences, but he can't ignore the amazing person right in front of him, so he's inspired to speak and create art

Lil scared my stair lowered / Momma said have no fear
He's a little nervous, but he remembers his mother's words and gains confidence

Plus I'm already outta my chair / God love my airs on my square from here forward
He's already up out of his seat and ready to make moves, and he feels sure of himself and who he is

It's nuthin right so here go it / Whisper in the air "its kinda crowded in here" / Would she care to blow it she said "yea"
It's no big deal, so he decides to take a chance and opens up to her. She responds positively and he knows they have a connection

You're my sunshine (you're my sunshine) / You're my moonlight (you're my moonlight) / You're the starry skies above me won't you please come down and hug me / Think I found love in this club tonight (Wowowowo)
He's fallen for her hard and fast – he feels like she's the light and stars in his life, and thinks he might be in love with her after only one night together

Never met her before / But I think I like her like a metaphor
He's never met anyone like her, but he feels like she's the perfect metaphor for everything he's been searching for

It's hard to get / In the car we sit / From the intro / She rolled down her window / Just in case I was a schitzo
He's excited to be with her, but he's also a little nervous, so she takes the initiative to make him feel at ease

So I compliment her on the common sense / I'm calm / A lil more confident (Uh Huh) / And then we lose consciousness
She impresses him with her intelligence, and he becomes more relaxed and confident around her. As they get closer, they start to forget the world around them

She says "that I've been waiting for you" / And I know you been chasing me too / Since they kidnapped me from a castle / I been thinking of you / I told a fire breathing dragon "he bet not harm me" or he be sorry when he meets my one man army / And thou has come to rescue me / My knight in shining armor, yes you be / Woken up by the horn of an SUV / I said "see, too beautiful to let you sleep"
She reveals that she's been waiting for him to come into her life, and she's been thinking of him even before they met. She's been independent and strong, even when faced with adversity, but she's finally found her true knight in shining armor

Relationship is just 30 minutes long / It's kinda heavy maybe a lil strong / "Go and take" much more than once / Can't trust what each of us say at least for a month
He knows their relationship has only been going on for a short time, but it feels intense and he's not sure what the future will bring. He also knows that they can't necessarily trust each other completely until they get to know each other better

Or two before I bid you adieu / Do this one thing for me outta the trillions of numbers that's in the world / Just leave me a few that lead to you / Won't be longing I see you in the morning
He knows that their time together might be short, but he hopes that even after they part ways, they'll stay connected in some small way. He looks forward to seeing her again soon
