cee of r.e.a.l music - the shine lyrics
[intro: shine (poem)]
in life, we always strive to reach perfection
but rarely do we ever stop to check our own reflection
i mean, just looking in the mirror’s not enough to see
all of the potential to be what you can be
through all the negativity and strife we may endure
we forget life’s about happiness, that and nothing more
you can’t buy that with money, you can’t pay with it either
but that’s the type of att-tude that breeds the non-believers
the game’s not just to win, experience is vital
so crawl or walk or sprint, but never remain idle
cause movement is the movement, united we defeat
any group of leaders that don’t want us to be free
so do away with parties, i’d rather free election
excuse the aberration, but this is just reflection
and if your goal is sanct-ty, i’ll join you on the ride
but if you ever lose your way just take a look inside, and shine
[hook][x2]
life’s only as good as you make it
so live it while you can even if you gotta take it
steps at a time, keep your mind on the shine
you can bet one day you’ll be living just fine
[verse 1]
i’m an 18 year old with a flow sick as colds
who would’ve known years ago i’d be spitting something so
terrific, vivid, and decidedly different
feel like i’m growing up, but i’m still on my kid sh-t
running out of time, i just turned 18
but i’m trying to mature and still remain a teen
and it seems that my dream resides only on the screen
even though i want to see it become a reality, so
i gotta stay on my grind, work hard
and believe me and my team can make it so far
cause we all got drive like a hybrid car
and the art is where it’s at like a silent “r”
but this is r.e.a.l music, resurrecting every aspect
of lyricism, c. dub, dee gunnz, and abstract
we gon’ keep on grinding till our voice is heard
dream of shows where the crowd knows every word like
[chrous][x2]
[verse 2]
sometimes i just feel like i gotta get away
put on blackenedwhite and let the whole mixtape play
drink some nestea and play nba 2k
hit a couple girls up and just chill for the day, hey
that is until it turns to night time
then i’m on the grind, clear my mind while i write rhymes
hoping that one day i’ll have my own spotlight time
so i’m searching for a deal like i went on priceline
ha, that’s why the flow is so fly
i can’t wait till i perform with a show so live
with lyrics that’s deep enough for everyone to stage dive
and a flow that’s dope enough for everyone to stay high
i, don’t condone the use of drugs i’m just saying
what’s the point of being in the game if you’re never playing
i know why i’m in it, cause i want to be the best
tryna find the shine meaning that i want success, yes
[hook][x2]
[verse 3]
bright lights, no frights, extraordinary night life
this is what i’m seeing in my future and it’s quite nice
hope i never gotta take it back like miller high life
proceed with caution cause the flow is so dry ice
back to the topic, i’m tryna make a living
gotta stay hungry like i’m skipping thanksgiving
knew that this is what i wanna do since the beginning
so i can’t afford to take a day off, winning
listen, i work too hard for you not to
hoping that my lyrics stick with you like hot glue
ask me why i’m always tryna make it to the top dude
barely made it out of the hospital so i got to
prove anyone wrong who told me that i couldn’t do it
and show that i accomplished cause i put my mind to it
every single track is something real and from the heart
i am 18 now it’s a whole new start
[hook][x2]
