Shine On

[Intro]
I glisten and I beam
I know I am a queen
Not ever looking back
I’m focused on my path

[Verse 1]
Day in, day out
I’d pick up all the pieces
You’d run your mouth
I’d have to answer for it
Someway, somehow
You slipped through my defenses
Lord knows what I was thinking

Suddenly I felt that I was coming to my senses
'Cause all the time you left me here
Sitting, second guessing
Finally I saw into your superficial essence
Saw you just for who you are

[Chorus]
What I'd give now to show you
What I'd give now to say
Having you 'round was poison
I’m in a better place
Steady I’m moving forward
I shine on
I shine on… I

[Verse 2]
Thought you had clout
To push mе 'round so I
Gave in to my doubts
Knew how to take advantagе
You kept me down
You love to feel important
Lord knows what I was thinking

Suddenly I felt that I was coming to my senses
All the time you left me here
Sitting, second guessing
Finally I saw into your superficial essence
Saw you just for who you are
I look in the mirror and I know my self worth
I glisten and I beam
'Cause I know I am a queen
Not ever looking back now
I’m focused on my path
Floating like I’m in a dream

[Chorus]
What I'd give now to show you
What I'd give now to say
Having you 'round was poison
I’m in a better place
Steady I’m moving forward
I shine on
I shine on… I

What I'd give now to show you
What I'd give now to say
Having you 'round was poison
I’m in a better place
Steady I’m moving forward
I shine on
I shine on… I

[Outro]
I glisten and I beam
I know I am a queen
Not ever looking back
I’m focused on my path
