Shine
Bitch I'm up I don't plan on coming down
Coming from a small town
Hippie nigga always blowing that steam
I walk around like I'm in a cap and gown
I'm achieving all my dreams
Graduating with no college degree
I come around, I see people start to frown
They so lost on how I found everything when I was buried beneath
I say I'm proud, I stayed silent heard a sound
Guiding me, whispering all that I'm 'bout to be
So look
Here's the story 'bout it
I'm just tryna come up out it
Writing stories in the morning, just a way to keep me balanced
It's a challenge finding talent, time alone is just astounding
Now I'm grounded, climbing mountains, where I'm lost is where I'm found at
Bitch I'm sitting in the dark searching for a spark
Closed my eyes looked inside see a world of art
Guess God blessed me with a gift call it Noah's ark
And now I'm tryna save the world before the flood starts
Wait
Bring it back one time
Take a hit just relax, shake that ass one time
Throwing rocks, they all hit, but
Still I climb
And then they try to close the blinds but
Still I shine
Yeah
Bring it back one time
Take a hit just relax, shake that ass one time
Throwing rocks, they all hit, but
Still I climb
And then they try to close my blinds but
Still I shine
It's a whole 'nother feeling you see
When you working towards something great it goes beyond just me
I'm tryna feed the whole world not just my fam and their needs
I got a planet to build, I'm barely planting the seeds
Fuck that, I'm not like them
I got this love in my veins
I carry on through the storms
I control all the rain
So if I'm popping, don't stop rocking wantcha to feel what I mean
I wanna touch all your souls wantcha to rock with the beat
Cause the dreams will keep on calling
All these people keep on stalling
Everybody think I'm falling, but I'm patient when I'm walking
So
I'm gone keep on balling, with my nigga from New Orleans
Cause those fears will keep you knocking but we bust the fucking wall in
Tryna show
You can be yourself and still make it
I'm mixing love and hate, joy and pain when I create it
Tell me how they 'posed lead a misguided generation
When they lookin' the mirror, see a fake picture painted damn
Wait
Bring it back one time
Take a hit just relax, shake that ass one time
Throwing rocks, they all hit, but
Still I climb
And then they try to close the blinds but
Still I shine
Yeah
Bring it back one time
Take a hit just relax, shake that ass one time
Throwing rocks, they all hit, but
Still I climb
And then they try to close my blinds but
Still I shine
Coming from a small town
