Don’t Shine Lyrics

[Hook x2]
Where I'm from when the clouds come out
Then the sun don't shine 'round here
Need your love, your touch
A shelter from the rain


[Verse 1]
I just fucked a bitch that I don't know, and the condom broke
The fucking rules that get broken when a young man is on the road
They swear my life is one they'd love to live
But they don't want the smoke
Of firearms on their entire arm
From shooting niggas before they fire on me

Timing is key, gee, so I unlock that door
Squeeze, jeez, Louise I'm on freeze
Chains upon chains, bitches upon bitches, rings upon rings
Where I'm from people take care of their wants before their needs
Where I'm going people don't have any needs, it's just greed

I try for the fine line between
Alexander Mcqueen's on my feet
Lybian landmines blow the knees off kids feet
But we don't give a fuck
Out here penny pinching with these millions in our touch
Nothing is enough we're all glutinous as fuck
We're all glutinous as fuck, because...

[Hook]

[Verse 2]
I owned a club when I was 19
All from selling dope to the right fiends
Damn, that's one hell of a pipe dream

My momma told me do the right thing young Spike Lee
So I keep cutting and shooting
Steady cammin and zooming
Give it to the customers let the critics and the hecklers review it
They poofin on my new shit
Keep it pure and give it that cool whip
The same shit that I do to my music
Now I don't sell dope, but I still do pimp
Wit a couple bad bitches in my rearview mirror
Driving hella fast, like I still don't care
'Bout them red and blue lights in my rearview mirror

Couple pending charges, but I still do appear
In court so they can't tell me shit about a warrant
Attorney and court fees, I'm feeling extorted
They feeling me too cause I'm feeling important
And my foot room on the plane is bigger than yours is
Because... we don't give a fuck
Just some kids shooting niggas with these triggers in our touch
Something is enough, we're all hungrier than fuck

We're all hungrier than fuck, because...
[Hook x2]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
