Budden, Joe - Under The Sun Lyrics






[Hook: Bryan Adams - "Brothers Under The Sun" Sample]
I had a dream - of the wide open prairie
I had a dream - of the pale morning sky
And we were the same - just the same - you an' I.
We are like birds of a feather
We are two hearts joined together
We will be forever as one...
My brother under the sun.

[Verse 1: Joe Budden]
Mic check, mic check, mic check, mic check
Mic check, 1, 2, 1, 2.

Ol' head said reality is fake an' fake's the new real
Nuttin' but strive to me, but takin' a few pills.
Ain't try'nna be the dude that's raisin' the blue steal
Vic's help me escape, they give me a new feel.
Unedited, ay'day is a newsreel, some cake an' a few bills
Honestly, all it'll take is a few mill (for what?)
For me not ta' have ta' portray no true skill (but!)
But lemme' jus' watch what I say, the truth kills.
(So) Be careful what'chu wish for
If I totally ignore it, I might withdraw.
I used ta' be pissed-off, piss-poor
Money crisp-poor, (it was) like this short.
It was kinda' hard ta' get the whole puzzle workin' wit' half a jigsaw
I got mine, let me help you get yours wit'out gettin' ripped off.
I left a trail nigga, follow it
An' when it's gone, make a new one, don't remodel shit.
Oh!

[Hook: Bryan Adams - "Brothers Under The Sun" Sample]
We are like birds of a feather
We are two hearts joined together
We will be forever as one...
My brother under the sun.

[Verse 2: Joe Budden]
Make ya own mutha'fuckin' footsteps nigga, don't follow mine!
Huh!? I got great problems though, my problems are good!
L-Look, look, look...
New suit, dude nervous (what else?)
Ol' case, new judge, new verdict (what else?)
A new outcome like somebody reversed it
(I mean I'm) I feel like I'm a new man, a new purpose.
(Oh!) It's like a nigga ain't feelin' so worthless
Kneel down an' worship, all them years was worth it.
So when he opened his mouth, I was stunned
He said, "You can't deny man his son." Be clear.
So if he wanna be there, you let 'em be there
Be fair, I mean, I can see he wants ta' be near.
I can see that he cares
I'll lock your ass up you don't oblige, be-ware. (I mean it)
She stared, she scared.
My lil' dude always get the World from me
An' you want 'em ta' have the World, jus' not from me.
Back like I never left, was never forced away
Got nuttin' more ta' say. Oh!

[Hook: Bryan Adams - "Brothers Under The Sun" Sample]
We are like birds of a feather
We are two hearts joined together
We will be forever as one...
My brother under the sun.

[Verse 3: Joe Budden]
When I see you I'm disgusted (nigga!)
Can't believe I was ever in love wit' (nigga!)
Must've been dusted, 'cause you look like shit
All these years, they ain't done you no justice. (Look at'chu!)
I mean you all fucked up, can't get cash
Still bitter over a badge you can't get passed. (Huh?!)
Jus' sad, get mad 'cause my bitch bad
Everyday she switch heels, switch bags. (Whoa!)
It's like we livin' on a dock nigga, big pad
You can't afford a deposit on my closet. (Not even)
Since you, all I ever known was fly shit
Unfortunately, you ain't fittin' that logic.
'Cause you're much less
Sometimes you gotta' stand by your failures to recognize your success.
Still, I'll be the bigger man an' wish her all the best
While knowin' she'll never get it
So why would she ever quit it, it's ridiculous.

[Hook: Bryan Adams - "Brothers Under The Sun" Sample]
We are like birds of a feather
We are two hearts joined together
We will be forever as one...
My brother under the sun.

    @koolkat518 I live and die for hip hop,finally a TRUE hip hop fan,people are just waking up and realizing wayne artists like them are just a phase ! and have no talent,their only in it for the money !You cant truly appreciate real Hiphop like this unless youknow the roots of hip hop and how it all started.really it started with DMXandBig L before that it everyone was just singin on their joints. People today just dont take the time to actually listen to the music, they just bob their head to it

  28. r.... ....

    @koolkat518 nooo just sick of seeing little tykes comparing legends to amatures, if u knew anything bout the rap game you would know what im talkin about

    @koolkat518 stop postin that shit everyoneee knows man just cuz u hopped off lil waynes dick and now your on joe buddens doesnt give you an opinion on anything. joe budden is greater than a lot of people. so saying hes greater than wayne is like an insult, wayne sucks dude plain and simple.

  47. P.... ....

    @evolushinairi shit is dope

  48. x.... 9....

    To kingnard17....you dnt believe in the illuminati shit..ur buggin look up on youtube and type in eminem-illuminati....shit is tooooo crazyy

  49. l.... ....

    @kingnard17 .....like religion!?!..like having a government in control of what we see and know.wether u believe it or not its foolish to dismiss the possibility of a new world order..ppl r given info and make decisions based on it..if ppl agree with u r they thinking for themselves???..jus sayin...

  50. 1.... ....

    Dawg u need to open your eyes and see whats happening in society around us

  51. k.... ....

    man shut the fuck with that illuminati bullshit....i wish yall would stop that shit, its all propaganda, ppl cant delevop there own ideas they just go on a man's word and follow it, ppl nowadays cant think for themselves

  52. 1.... ....

    You can tell whos in the illuminati just from the lyrics they use.

    Also most (if not all) big artists these days are a part of this illuminati shit. It makes you loose respect for cats like Nas & Eminem when you hear shit like that but then it helps you appreciate the better, underground rappers like Joey. Also, Tupac is a fucking legend. He was one of the only artists to make it big without selling his soul. Once he spoke out against the illuminato, he got killed. Co-incidence?

    R.I.P PAC!

  53. B.... N....

    if who joined Illuminati?

  54. C.... K....

    thats true

  55. m.... v....

    budden is , was and will always be bull

  56. T.... ....

    """"BEAST"""""

  57. C.... K....

    under the sun means joe joined illuminati

  58. b.... ....

    that would kick ass you know what that would do to hip hop

  59. J.... B....

    Joe Budden is 1 of da best out dere! He speaks dat real shyt. Dats why he's my fav. Jersey ALL DAY baby!

  60. F.... ....

    i don't kno' why you idiots compare Lil Wayne to MC's, of course Joe Budden > Wayne.

  61. n.... ....

    Obvious.

  62. t.... ....

    agree escape route had a better vibe the beats are better and the themes fit the padded room saga of his music. HWH still ill but Escape route had no fillers while HWH imo touch n go was bad and on my grind should have had a better beat.

  63. d.... ....

    my version:
    watch?v=RlfLcIBQpr4

  64. r.... ....

    keep makin that fiRe Mouse

  65. R.... P....

    KILLA BH

  66. B.... ....

    one of the best that ever did it>>>>>>>>>>

  67. j.... ....

    killa bh is a beast for this shit damn.

  68. S.... ....

    If you can't find the lyrics w/ the name of the song...

  69. d.... ....

    my version:
    watch?v=RlfLcIBQpr4

  70. S.... ....

    Bryan Adams - Brothers Under the Sun look it up.

  71. D.... ....

    ROFLMFAO

  72. d.... e....

    Damn!...lmao preach...I like wayne though..

  73. C.... W....

    Budden is the king!!

  74. w.... ....

    maybe not that far but for a hip hop album its original in content , and the fact that its independant also makes it a good album lol

  75. w.... ....

    i bought padded room , one of the best albums iv ever bought
    its next to my me against the world

  76. B.... B....

    REAL TALK

  77. G.... ....

    everyone knows who budden is. they just followers. he doesn't dress like wayne or say the bullshit that jim jones says. thats why he will NEVER go 2x platinum. not the way the game is. rap music is trash. they want to hear auto tune with tpain on the hook, or weezy playing a guitar. they want to hear kanye compare himself to god and brag about his louies. they wanna hear about shit none of us can relate to. so fuck it. i'd much rather have 100,000 loyal fans than 9 million fake ones like wayne

  78. y.... ....

    joe budden the greatest

  79. B.... P....

    im coppin that padded room 10 am feb 24th at best buy.....unless they open earlier than that
