Shine On

[Intro: Dresage]
We are lost in, faded lovers
When we're under, feelings that never bloom
We count our cards as they fall
All the almosts really made me wonder
Will my heart escape the rain and thunder?
Then you found me in the deep blue hour
I'm never looking back

[Chorus]
I thank God I'm breathin'
Takin' these meds, tryna keep myself from fiendin'
Crack that 8, I'm leanin'
My brother against the state, I pray he beat it
Fuck they talkin' 'bout?
I'm too legit, these niggas hate for no reason
Momma, I'm ballin' now
Goin' state-to-state, seein' everything I was dreamin'
Police takin' all my niggas, this shit make me feel alone
Lost lil' Arthur to that system, I'm tryna call through jail phones
Tryna stay out they way, let a fuck nigga play, he get his head blown
Stay down, deserve and wait, everybody got a day, I'ma get my shine on

[Verse]
I'm tryna elevate, I know it's gon' take time
Don't wanna ask for help, I know it's there, I'm too stuck in my mind
I pop these pills, I think I got it bad, I wanna quit, I'm tryin'
They sell me dreams, that shit ain't nothin' new, fake energy and time
My nigga activate off Percs, he say it seem numb the hurt
Stuck in the streets tryna find the quickest route but that just make it worse
Like "Fuck the mix", I'm all they talk about but the hate don't seem to work
'Cause I go harder now, I ain't never worried 'bout the next nigga, that's for sure
One day we gon' all die, my life, I'ma live mine
Never know when it due over, when it come I guess it's just my time
Just hold my momma head, ten toes down, I stood on all mine
And I'm chasin' checks and stayin' blessed, I can't waste no time

[Chorus]
I thank God I'm breathin'
Takin' these meds, tryna keep myself from fiendin'
Crack that 8, I'm leanin'
My brother against the state, I pray he beat it
Fuck they talkin' 'bout?
I'm too legit, these niggas hate for no reason
Momma, I'm ballin' now
Goin' state-to-state, seein' everything I was dreamin'
Police takin' all my niggas, this shit make me feel alone
Lost lil' Arthur to that system, I'm tryna call through jail phones
Tryna stay out they way, let a fuck nigga play, he get his head blown
Stay down, deserve and wait, everybody got a day, I'ma get my shine on (Shine on)

[Outro: Jdot Breezy & Dresage]
Uh-huh, it's like oh so crazy, like, I was on the phone with, uh, mom, the other day
And she had asked me, like, how far I wanna go with this shit
I had told her though, like, I have a passion for this, like, this shit like a nigga heart
So like, I wanna be a superstar
Shit, all realness
(All the almosts really made me wonder)
Shit for my brothers
Ones that ain't here to see that shit
(Will my heart escape the rain and thunder?)
But, you know, I'm just me though
(Then you found me in the deep blue hour)
I'm coolin'
Growin' as a artist
(I'm never looking back)
I'm livin' life
