Shine

Verse 1 Trying to make this dollar stretch like putty Done so much traveling my shoes is getting muddy My feet is getting sore My ambitions starting to grow I used to feel torn but I finally feel whole now You can't take my light cuz I'l still glow Stole light from Zeus God dammit I steal glow And call the bomb squad I bet you I'll still blow Came out with a couple scratches but my scars they still show I fell for the game right around Half Time Memory Lane reminiscing about my past times That was back then before I even had mics Now for my future yo I see me living this fast life It's kinda scary though but honestly I love the fear Now fears dead so run and tell em the hurst is here I learned to deal with pressure and always persevere An ear infection to haters because that hurts to hear But I'm here to stay a Jehri curl I'm permanent Slept on like furniture but now they all heard of him Chills up ya vertebra I just let my record play Took a risk and put it out this is my test of faith This is my testament this is my eulogy This is my reason for breathing between you and me I would rather die than see me live and not doing me My purpose goes a beyond a 9-5 see I don't got the time Check the wrist, now check the watch Snakes in my garden yea they know that I keep that pesticide Slap you on the wrist for thinking you got the best of I So let me shine Now let me shine Chorus Let me shine Now let me shine Oh oh oh oh oh ohhhh Oh oh oh oh oh oh ohhhh Oh oh oh oh oh ohhhh Oh oh oh oh oh oh ohhhh Verse 2 I shine like a diamond, I'm bright like a star Came in as me coming out twice as hard Rappers say that they'll never change until they got it A couple of my idols lost themselves for some profit Would you sell ya self to get some sales? I used to ask myself now that ships sailed See this is me 100 and none less No label like Freshjive thats why I always come fresh My people tell me I'm probably up next Don't believe it until you see you see me covering Complex.. I used to feel like my dreams were so far fetched Now I'm closer than ever I could catch em without nets Run the game and ball like Kevin Garnett Out ran rappers this is not a contest Killed em all please don't take that out of context Buried 6 feet deep rest in peace and God bless Now my only enemies myself I ran myself dry til my emotions gone stale My life became a prison I broke free with Scofield And then I headed towards the sun shine right over them hills Saw the fork up in the road took the path less traveled I put my hands in sky but kept my feet in the gravel While Her was keeping me grounded Lost myself but I found it I fell asleep to the sound of the waves all crashing around me Now.. Now let me shine Now let me shine Chorus Let me shine Now et me shine Oh oh oh oh oh ohhhh Oh oh oh oh oh oh ohhhh Oh oh oh oh oh ohhhh Oh oh oh oh oh oh ohhhh
