Sunlight
Spodee Feat. B.o.B & Mitchelle'l Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I want to meet you, let me tell you who your son is
Well, on the block the people walk and talk and greet ya
I want to take you where they said they saw the sun
Why is all the sunlight gone?
And all the sunlight gone and all the sunlight
Same old story, gone to meet you
And I will and he's lost his mind
Oh and I know that the son is mine
Turn your sunlights on
I saw the photograph they said it's from a stranger
I saw the photograph, they said they want to meet you
I read the message and already went to see them
I took the photograph, they said they want to meet you
Why is all the sunlight gone?
Is all the sunlight gone, is all the sunlight
Same old story, gone to meet you
Same old story, sunny boy
And I will and he's lost his mind
Oh and I know that the son is mine, shit
Turn your sunlights on
I got a letter and a picture from a stranger
I want to meet you, let me tell you who your son is
Well, on the block the people walk and talk and greet ya
I want to take you where they said they saw the sun
Why is all the sunlight gone?
Is all the sunlight gone, is all the sunlight
(Is all the sunlight gone)
Same old story, gone to meet you
(All the sunlight gone)
Same old story, gone to meet you
(All the sunlight gone)
Same old story, sunny boy
And I will and he's lost his mind
Oh and I know that the son is mine
Oh and I will and he's lost his mind
Oh and I know that the son is mine
Turn your sunlights on
The lyrics of Spodee's song "Sunlight" convey a message of a man who receives a letter and a picture from a stranger informing him of a son he has never met. The man expresses a desire to meet his son and take him where they saw the sun. He questions why all the sunlight has gone and repeats the same old story of meeting his son. The repetition of the words "same old story" could be interpreted as a feeling of regret or missed opportunities of being a father to his son. Despite the man's loss of his mind or sanity, he believes that he is the father and appeals to his son to turn his sunlights on.
This song highlights the emotional turmoil experienced by people who discover they have a child they never knew existed. The man's desire to meet his son and make up for lost time is evident in the lyrics. The lyrics also suggest a sense of regret and a desire to make amends for past mistakes.
