Sunkissed - Rayana Jay

Sunkissed, sunkissed, sunkissed

Sunkissed, sunkissed, uh

Baby, you black on both sides

Like midnight with no porch lights

You was young and wanna learn what the streets like

But momma told you make it home before the streetlights

Oh, you never listen, unh-uh

I love how black boys shine, I love how black boy glisten

You’re like soul food on a Sunday

Old schools down the one way

Treat the world like your runway

And pray they pay you back someday

But tell ‘em keep their 40 acres

American Dreams and other shit they made up

‘Cause I gotcha—if nobody else gotcha, I gotcha

I swear you’ve been kissed by the

You must have been kissed by the

You sho' ain’t been missed by the

Swear you’ve been kissed by the sun

I swear that you’ve been the one

I promise, you’re sunkissed

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

You make me happy when skies are gray

They never know how much I love you

Police you and judge you, but don’t take my sunshine away

Don’t take my sunshine away

They love taking my sunshine away

Never know how much I love you, but don’t take my sunshine away

Black like Granny house on the weekends

Had little cousins, ain’t no telling where you sleeping—y'all made it work

Sunday morning, y’all late to church—but you made it there

You’re black like Grandma’s Hands, wrapped up in Grandma’s prayers

You are my Rhythm and Blues, the one who invented the cool

The one’s who dented the rules

And showed the world what my niggas could do, ay

I swear you’ve been kissed by the

You must have been kissed by the

You sho' ain’t been missed by the

Swear you’ve been kissed by the sun

I swear that you’ve been the one

I promise, you’re sunkissed
