No cap sun up to sun down lyrics

NoCap - “Sun Up To Sun Down”

Don’t let all the singing fool you, NoCap is a lyricist. The Mobile, Alabama crooner now includes subtitles in his music videos because he doesn’t want any of his battle rap style lyrics to go over our heads. His newest single “Sun Up To Dun Down” blends together that wordplay with bars that are more about accepting success than celebrating it. “I’m not afraid to tell you that this new to me,” he says plainly in the beginning, before singing the next couple of lines like he’s been gut-punched. But the real appeal of NoCap is in deciphering his punchlines that are sometimes too wordy, too simple, or completely incomprehensible. I’ll leave you with a few:

• “From the streets I switch (Swizz) the beats/Outfit cost at least a key (Alicia Keys)”
• “If she put money in my safe the only way I keep her”
• “A nigga rock so much of Christian had to talk with Jesus”

With artists releasing songs at a fast and furious pace, it’s difficult for the average hip-hop head to keep track of it all—no matter how tapped in they are. That’s why we created The Ones, a daily post to highlight the song you need to hear.

Bama-bred and Atlantic Records member NoCap released a brand new track and accompanying visual on Saturday for his latest hit, “Sun Up to Sun Down.”

The masterpiece features NoCap’s brilliant lyricism riding effortlessly over a slower key-heavy instrumental that matches perfectly with the style and niche he’s developed in just a short time among the top in the industry. His wordplay is unmatched, consistently throwing out bars that make listeners pause, analyze and rewind.

“(Wall) full of (paper) homie go check out my (background)”

*Slight pause to allow for lyrics to set in*

The video directed by Rich Porter is crisp, with subtitles lining each clip to add both flavor and functionality, along with stunning close-ups of jewelry, luxury cars and designer fits that the rapper flaunts throughout. A dark environment caused Rich Porter to use various difficult shooting and editing techniques, something that often goes unnoticed to the untrained eye. The detail-oriented video was beautifully done, as one familiar with his work could expect.

The video currently sits at No. 6 on the YouTube top trending music chart with nearly 1.3M views in just a few days, and it doesn’t look to be slowing down anytime soon.

(ATL Jacob, ATL Jacob) Yeah! Push the Ferrari with the Cuban links
I'm not afraid to tell you that this new to me
Someone died up on that block, well, that's usual
Tried to give you all my love and you used it up

Sun Up To Sun Down 「Lyrics」 - NoCap

(ATL Jacob, ATL Jacob) Yeah! Push the Ferrari with the Cuban links
I'm not afraid to tell you that this new to me
Someone died up on that block, well, that's usual
Tried to give you all my love and you used it up

[Chorus]
Sun up to sun down, we trappin' just like last time
Niggas used to laugh at me, they wanna be us now
Wall full of paper, homie, go check out my background
I ain't lyin', my nigga, I'ma be honest
I ain't lyin', my nigga, I'ma be honest

[Verse]

Won't say I shot you in your back, nigga, I just give your ho them
Got niggas from the west side, they change, poor Kim
Nine times out of ten, she gave me brain if she from Mobile
Still tryna give Sosa all the game, I barely know him
Half a mill' up in jewelry, no exaggeration
Half a mill' up in jewelry, no exaggeration
So many nights I fought with demons, you can ask the reaper
Neighborhood Hero, but when it's time, who gon' save the Eagle?
If she put money in my safe, the only way I keep her
Tell the opps to cop out now before this shit deeper
A nigga rock so much of Christian, had to talk with Jesus
It always seem that I be right even when I do assume
I let that Tesla drive itself and that bitch took me to the moon
She ain't got no feelings, she gon' run right through the crew

Nigga, touch my chain, then I'm right back on the news
Movin' like a king but don't scream if they body me
Rappers always steal my flow and don't even acknowledge me
From the streets, I switch the beats, outfit cost at least a ki
From the streets, I switch the beats, outfits cost Alicia Keys

[Chorus]
Sun up to sun down, we trappin' just like last time
Niggas used to laugh at me, they wanna be us now
Wall full of paper, homie, go check out my background
I ain't lyin', my nigga, I'ma be honest
I ain't lyin', my nigga, I'ma be honest
