[Chorus]
All that glitters isn't gold to me, and all that's gold won't glisten
Atleast that's everything they told to me, way back when we were children 
They don't wanna see us shine, cuz they, blinded by our reflection
They don't wanna see us shine, no, but shine don't listen

[Verse 1]
Shine forever I don't know a star that shines forever, feel like Rashad but you shot yourself up We was born to be aligned with the tides, our shelf lives are tampered, My next lie is set up, the next spark that will fly gon' divide your temple like split pies, spit lies to the flock like shepherds,  I hear it live on record, i recognize the feathers that fell beside your brother, let pigs fly and they gon' die that second,  And with time he'll have ticks and slip, knots won't help him I know that X marks the spot but lies define the treasure, last to find you tethered, got footsteps in the sky, when the clouds are severed
Who else applyin' pressure?  Who next in line to get blinded retinas, and then wonder how my inner visions came to life?  From a supernova over Nova Scotia's plains in sight, to taking novocaine all pale and white, impaled by the trails of light, A brother that'll never learn, had to bail him twice.  I set sail for a greater life, cause we was stuck bein' degraded, can't excel past what you sell at night.  But success through the steps of your elders is a seldom right?  They laid a path in your favor but you'll experience failure right?  On nights we only had baked beans, stale greens and a grain of rice, i know that didn't lead to my brothers misbehaving, right? I heard one already set sail to his homeland, derailed to a poor man's dream for being an assailant Even tried to email him, i saw countless revelations, like how your mistakes as a youngin' can dictate your life.  I got an uncle in Decatur too, a janitor who sweep the floors of houses, he can cater too.  He said in a decade or two, his kids won't see a trace of who he was cause he'll erase the wounds he got when he was young, for now he'll play a fool.

(Chorus)

[Verse 2]
Shine forever,
My momma said that i'm gon shine forever, don't let nobody take your shine, or climb your ladder, mind is matter, minds are shattered, peace of mind on decline, cause i dined with sinners,
I woke up on the eastside, first time in forever
Forever is a long time, along with dope time, a longer rope, tied around your throat, nine more seconds 'till your mom's hits up your phone line, behind them closed blinds are skies and sunshine, your nephew too, smile as she wait for you, fryin' your brain all loose, accompanied by them hallucinations draining you, your hands are dirty so hold mine, we're praying too
Tell me what's failing you, and who you gon' fail if they smell the trail of you
Seeing you frail with bones chilled, like hanging fruit

[Verse 3]
He saw the shine of twenty karats in someone's watch, now he's battling second thoughts, lookin' round if there's witnesses
Of the victim with missed calls from his mama, it's sickening
Cause he was 'pposed to be home after 4, now she mad at him
Supposed to help his brother do some chores, now he mad at him Family asking questions wondering where they family went
They'll hear it on the news and it's described as an accident
And they're told to let it go, but no one knows how to handle it
I know we look to jewels to give the value we lack inside 
Search for validation through our watches, and hope they shine
Instead of showing time, but time is short when you've stolen it
End up inside a prison cell, serving round ten or nine
The perfect world that Moussa had envisioned some time ago
Exists inside a country where the shine is invisible
Trust that we're the same kids raised in different homes
And never let the lust for that shine get in control Shine

Shine

syntherlude part 2

Part 1:
The armor made to protect me couldn't stop me from sinking, i'm like a fullmetal alchemist, my soul on my fist
I was Richard's right hand, and his left was armed, palms on the dead n wrong, arthritis fingers, one itch could leave you beggin for, paramedics, metal falls, temple on the concrete that you head towards in seconds, war is breathless, just picture your last minute in a meadow as you're reaching out for heaven's doors, 
In my view it's the rules of all alchemy, to gain is to lose, so why are ruins still surrounding me? The second Crusades, the sowed seeds that make the nation green, are grieved before they get to reap or reach a height of anything, 
If homes are lost and torn and rocks are formed with bodies underneath, and hospitals get blown to pebbles, corn that only crowd the streets, a two year old's soul is on a voyage from the rains of siege, so where is the equivalent exchange for all the pain they seek? 
Is there plans of rebuilding with the massacred children? In Damascus, the cracks between buildings act as caskets for victims, 
No surveillance on the holy land, they mask the conditions, how casual casualties became and every child's a statistic, but on the other side the hostages infamed cause of unlawful imprisonment, you know their names, age and face but not the kids that was lost like they never existed, i ask the lord where's the equivalent exchange to all the famine they've risen? 

Part 2:
I threw too many stones i got stiff hands
Alone, and my wrist bends, so bitter when drunk but no better when sober, soul stuck in the distance, smoke clutters my vision
I'm spiraling down a cliff, my anxiety in a spliff and
All eyes on me since an infant, played life like a guitar
Six strings in my composition, had plans of  being a star, and for a minute i was
Until i played with a fret, instead of stopping my vibrations it had stained and suppressed, 
i got netted too quick, learned to strum with a pick to protect the tips of my fingers from slits and callus, 
The palace is fixed, raised by the bay that's where you'll catch us like scallops and ships, 
Always running out back, i was catching my breath, 
I was jumping over gates, the neighbors dog on my left
Feel the vibration of each step when we'd pedal like a piano, shootin' pellets from each angle, but he'd aim below the naval
He was 5'4 in them sandals, smart fellow but his hands low, he finessed sum' from that angle, got in a trap
He was feeling like the Wu-Tang but his old man Luther Vandross, never figured out those two lanes, like 2 Chainz in the bando, pink traphone, still trap but his swan song closed that chapter, ain't no happily ever after, he got caught with a strap
Supposed to lead us to the Hamptons after all of this rap
I ain't seen him since that night, his father heard the broken bird, and he ain't go without a fight
All the words that he chirped were in the key of life, untuned for way too many moons cause no one played it right, 
My father did, and so he too tried pushing keys in solitude, i had to let him live
He tried to sweep the people off their feet, i had to plead the fifth, the moment i saw how he met defeat, since a little kid
He dreamt i'd play the melodies that make the people feel on edge, or something that could add to his own symphony; i never did
And in his mind, he said "maybe this kid just hadn't spread his wings, cause if he'll never harmonize with me, then i can't savor it
A solo act? I'm gon have to teach to him to abstain from that, there's certain rules we've all set up with certitude, no changing that- i'm smashing plates, a cymbal of my drastic ways to set him back, 
Cause if his song don't sound like my collection, it'll stay cassette"
I'm staying stressed and anguished, i could marinate a steak in sweat
And how was i gon' swank in a few years if i can't sway my deck- 
of cards, i'll have to build a house that's gone with the faintest breath, it pains my chest, cause i was just a pawn in his game of chess
