He began his professional rapping career working with DJ Quik, with Quik serving as the producer on his debut album, Street Gospel. Released in 1997, it fell short of commercial expectations, but was praised by many underground rap fans in California, and is seen as a "street classic" by many of them. The DJ Quik production on this album was considered to be refreshing compared to the stereotypical West Coast G-Funk sound that had dominated most of the early 90's, as he incorporated elements of jazz, funk, rhythm and blues, and even rock and roll to create instrumentals that caught the ears of many listeners.
On My Way
Suga Free Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We walk beside the sun
Rainy night and rainy day
Might as well keep away
I've got trouble on the run
Weariness
Weariness has left my friend
My head goes round
On my way and I might be late
I don't worry
Every thing can wait
She talks to me of feelin'
Feelin' good
And feelin' better
Once upon a time I thought
I could love around and not get caught
But I'd never met her
Weariness, waeriness has left my friend
Head goes round
And round again
I'm on my way
And I might be late
I don't worry every thing can wait
Do you mean
When you say you'll be mine
I want you to be mine
All mine
Weariness
Weariness has left my friend
My head goes round
And round again
On my way and I might be late
I don't worry
Every thing can wait
Every thing can wait
The lyrics of Suga Free's "On My Way" speak of a person's journey towards a better life, guided by the wisdom and positive outlook of another person who walks with them "beside the sun." The song speaks of moving away from troubles in the past, and the weariness that comes with them, as the singer moves towards a better future, where everything can wait. The calming assurance of the person in the song brings a feeling of serenity and hope that everything will be okay. The singer of the song seems to be in a much better place than before, feeling better and less troubled, thanks to the guidance provided by their partner.
The phrase "On My Way" serves as both the title of the song and the chorus, emphasizing the sense of journey and purpose in the lyrics. The repetition of "weariness" emphasizes how much the singer was struggling before their journey began, while its absence highlights the positive impact of the other person's presence. The overall message of the song is not to worry, as everything can wait until the person completes their journey towards a better life.

I thought I could have multiple romantic partners without consequences
But I'd never met her
I had not yet met the person who changed my perspective on love
Do you mean when you say you'll be mine
Are you sincere in your commitment to be with me?
I want you to be mine
I desire a romantic relationship with you
All mine
I want to have you to myself
