[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

[Hook]
I've been on a slow rise, know i tried though
Running after time, there were times i could've backdoored
Slime, why you looking at the floor, keep your chin up
I'll be there in a minute, summer knights, cold shivers, ay
Ain't nobody cosigned, i still grind though
Youngins watching for me on the side, we divide dough, 
Five-O, got a couple homies on a sprinter
Cold nights, cold shivers, run like they ain't forgive us, ay
