Shine Through

I'm alright, I'm alive
I know what it takes
To survive through these hard times
I'm a star, I'mma shine through the night
Never fall victim to the dark side
We alright we alive
We know what it takes
To survive through these hard times
We 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 false 'cause I know 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 gonna 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 livin' life in a bubble
Imma put the muscle in the hustle
Imma figure out this life like a puzzle
That's somethin' that I must do
Gotta have that love for life
'Cause y'all seen what that lust do
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 alright, I'm alive
I know what it takes
To survive through these hard times
I'm a star, I'mma shine through the night
Never fall victim to the dark side
We alright we alive
We know what it takes
To survive through these hard times
We 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
Now the pressure is off
I'm seeing beauty in the things
I ain't treasure enough
I can't stress it enough
Man dealin' with the feelin'
Of depression is tough
And the essence of love
Is present it's a blessin' 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 dressin' 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 makin' 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 glistenin' beamin'
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 shine through
