कोई जीता, कोई हारा
अरे, बड़े मज़ा आए, हाय, सुनो मेरी बात

The lyrics of R. Gee & Tecay's song, The Sun, delve deep into the artist's personal struggles, insecurities, and aspirations. The song starts with the artist questioning his pursuit of fame, expressing his confusion about why he chases it despite not knowing why. The artist admits that he would rather lie about it and hide his true feelings than confront them, which he believes stem from feeling unloved and rejected all his life. He acknowledges the importance of self-love but admits that it's hard to achieve when one hates oneself as he struggles with it.
Further, he expresses his fear of failure and apprehension about the future, wondering if becoming someone better is what he desires or is even possible. He ruminates on whether chasing better might lead to worse outcomes and whether he will realize the worth of what he has lost only when it's gone. He shares that he turns to music to express his feelings, and over the years, his songs turned into sincere confessions.
The last part of the song is a tribute to the artist's deceased grandparent who imbued him with hope and strength. He thanks them for teaching him the value of life, which helps him find hope in a better tomorrow, even in life's darkest moments. He ends the song by expressing his faith that something significant is about to happen, signaling an end to his pain and struggles.

Writing these songs and I wonder who pays attention
As I write these songs, I sometimes ponder on who the intended audience is and if anyone will listen and relate to my music.
Freshman year I made some music just to vent my expression, And as the years went by

My songs turned into confession, It’s been years since I’ve cried

I wanna feel what I feel inside

Even if it’s pain for all of mine who’ve died

Shit, maybe it’s just me

Last time I was overseas I was only 3 years old

Vaguely remember the sunny island where it rarely snows
I recall somewhat hazily the warm and sunny island where it seldom snows.
Wish I stayed longer with you, before you passed away
I regret not spending more time with you before you passed away.
But even at an early age, you taught me to believe in brighter days
You instilled in me a firm belief that positive and better days exist, which I carry to this day.
So, thank you
I am grateful and thankful for the life lessons and wisdom you imparted to me all those years ago.
Maybe that’s why I never thought of suicide
Perhaps the reason why I have never seriously considered suicide is due to the lessons and hope you instilled in me as a child.
Always thought life was worth living till the day you finally die
I have always believed that life has value and is worth living until the day one passes away.
I gotta believe you felt the same way through all the pain you suffered
I firmly believe that you held the same outlook and perspective on life despite the difficulties and pain you faced.
Showing us kids to stay strong even if you never recovered
You demonstrated what it meant to remain strong despite adversity, a lesson that I have taken to heart and try to implement in my own life.
And as these days pass by I got a feeling something big is coming, yeah
As time goes by, I am starting to sense that something significant is on the horizon.
That feeling you get when something real is coming, yeah
That feeling of anticipation you feel when you sense that something genuine and vital is approaching.
No graduation ceremony needed
I do not require a formal ceremony or recognition to acknowledge that I have made significant progress and growth in my life.
Inside, I know I’ve graduated because this pain I’ve defeated
Although there has not been an official recognition of my progress, I know that I have accomplished much because I have gained control of the pain and struggles in my life.
Til next time
Until we meet again.
Aye Gee, gone
Goodbye for now, signed affectionately as Aye Gee.
