shine on, iâll shine, shine on, ill shine, shine on, show âem what youâre made of
Look at this kid, like look whoâs here
5 feet tall, only got one ear
Skipping over cheats like a jumprope, touring
rhyming over beats like thereâs no joke, scoring
but oh wait, the jokes on you,
while Iâm running states, you sit in your room
Hiding your face through a keyboard, boring
While iâm grinding tricks on my skateboard, soaring
oh bro, I can see why youâre mad,
youâre in the old school, Iâm out starting a fad
Why donât you just have a word with my fans,
they know respect is what makes a man
this boxing us up, like oxen chained up,
got us toxin it up, like fox who canât jump
so de-box this stump, well show you whatâs up,
well shock you to bump, get you over the hump
shine on, iâll shine, shine on, ill shine, shine on, show âem what youâre made of
I talked another brother from the ledge today,
he said man, just canât deal with all this hate,
it stings from the outside you feel the downside,
but from the inside, it kills
itâs killing itâs killing itâs killing me,
is it killing killing killing you?
then he told me he swallowed an entire bottle,
he said he swallowed a handful of pills
(He said) I couldnât understand what the hypes about,
i heard you always run your mouth
And I was just about to be out,
final prayers, down the stairs
Your song came on, I was close to sleeping,
it kept me strong, it gave me the reason,
9 1 1, dial tone,
emergency, he picked up the phone
shaken, waken, almost taken,
sing-song helped his heart from breaking
sirens moan, donât drop the phone,
my song was going youâre not alone
The gender binary is just there confining me
wiring me to be someone i ainât trying to be
but really, i donât even try,
itâs only my mind that makes me the guy,
only my rhymes that make me so fly,
another trans bro, like oh my my,
transcend through time,
change the lines, so everyone can have a try
donât take the air from our lungs,
keep the bass bumping on the drums
speaking the truth rhyme and rhyme, line after line,
so we could all shine
shine on, iâll shine, shine on, ill shine, shine on, show âem what youâre made of
lift your head up Iâve been there too
stand up, stay strong, push on through
more importantly stay true, stay you,
