Shine Through

I'm alive that's a vibe
I know what it takes
To survive through these hard times
I'm a star, I'm gon' shine through the night
Never fall victim to the dark side
We alive that's a vibe
We know what it takes
To survive through these hard times
We're some stars, we gon' shine through the night
We gon' let 'em know that it's our time

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
But I can't see the world
When it's on my shoulders nah
Guess the pressure is on
I would ask you how it look
But your perception is wrong
I'm just stressing is all
You don't feel how I feel
Man depression is strong
And the essence of love
Isn't present dead presidents run
Your heart your mind your body and soul
But that's falsified cause you're in control
So never stop searching for the light at the end of the tunnel
Love yourself, put nothing above you
You ain't never gon' buckle
Go through the trouble, there's beauty in the struggle
Even through the pain, gotta chuckle
Even through the rain, gotta bust a
Couple moves switching lanes through the rubble
Tired of living life in a bubble
Imma put the muscle in the hustle
Imma figure out this life like a puzzle
Something that I must do
Something I adjust to
Gotta have that love for life
'Cause yall seen what that lust do
'Cause sometimes I'm feeling like fuck the world
Then I sit down and think man it's not the world
It's a shell of myself
with a little bit of help
Imma shine through

I'm alive that's a vibe
I know what it takes
To survive through these hard times
I'm a star, I'm gon' shine through the night
Never fall victim to the dark side
We alive that's a vibe
We know what it takes
To survive through these hard times
We're some stars, we gon' shine through the night
We gon' let 'em know that it's our time

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
I finally see the world
When it's off my shoulders yeah
Now the pressure is off
I'm seeing beauty in the things
I ain't treasure enough
I can't stress it enough
Man dealing with the feeling
Of depression is tough
And the essence of love
Is present it's a blessing
For one I never understood
All the lessons it brung
For two I was glued to the past
I was stuck
I ain't address it, my progression
Was less than enough
Now I'm honest to myself
I ain't dressing it up
Shout out to my family
And friends that was there
Couldn't do it by myself
Mental health was up in the air
I'm just making it clear
I could feel that my peers
They perceived I ain't care
But it's not that I ain't care
It's the weight that I carried
Really it was eerie
It was making me dreary
It felt like I was dreaming
I was trying to free me
I felt like I needed something
To complete me
But what I needed was in me
I just missed it completely
I made it through the night
Now I'm glistening beaming
Aligning with the light
I don't listen to demons
In spite of everything
I prevailed
I don't dwell in this hell
With a little bit of help
I just shined through
