Ima Shine Lyrics

[Intro]
This goes out to all my people out there
Who got hopes and dreams that they wanna accomplish
Here's a little influence
Little inspiration music for ya
Now...let's go!

[Verse 1]
Shine bright for the world to see
It's time for me to start my legacy
Showing these people what a real man looks like
Showing these people what the truth sounds like
Hey, don't need to be fake like a toupee
Don't need a big ego like Kanye
People say they always keep it 1K
Well, guess what? Ima keep it 10gs, 10K

[Bridge]
(Never give up, never give up)
Gotta be strong
(Never give up, never give up)
Gotta move it along
(Never give up, never give up)
Gotta keep holdin' on
(Never give up, never give up)
Ain't no need to worry for long 'cause
[Hook]
Ima shine like the stars in the sky
No lie, no lie
Ima shine like the stars in the sky
No lie, no lie
Ima shine like the stars in the sky
No lie, no lie
Ima shine like the stars in the sky
No lie, no lie
Break it down like this

[Verse 2]
Break it down for my people
Ima be looked up to like a hero
Ain't got no time to be a zero
Because I'm not your average negro
I got my education, knowledge expansion
Still humble even if I got a mansion
Like the sun, you goin' see me shine
And when you gettin' yours, Ima get mine

[Bridge + Hook]

[Verse 3]
Be fresh to def when these haters watchin'
See me down the street with my headphones, boppin'
Stand out in the crowd, always
Girls callin' me handsome, all day
New to the game but spit like an expert
Even with writer's block, I still put in work
Ima go hard nigga, grown man shit
I don't strive for attention 'cause I got it now, trick
[Bridge + Hook]
