shine lyrics

Are you ready? It?s your girl Estelle
This album?s for my people, gonna be a struggle
But you know what, fuck it
We?re gonna have fun tonight, you feel me?
Lets go

Oh, this is my song
I?m just like you I gotta fight to stay strong
Just 'cuz it clears it don?t mean that it?s over
I'm a shine while my lights on

I'm a shine, I'm a shine
I'm a shine while my lights on
I'm a shine, I'm a shine
I'm a shine while my lights on

When the lights go down what you know about me?
What you know is what I choose to let you see
But I?m from London call me the Big Ben
I grew up in west specifically West Kendall

Now let me slow it down a little bit
So you can feel me
'Cuz where I?m from there wasn?t shit to do
No not really

Who?d a thought that it would happen
This London chick start rappin'
Now American boys are chattin'
All about me with my wicked accent

Hey yes, I stays on my grind
You go get yours I?ll get mine
Don?t worry 'bout it, I?m fine
'Cuz I'm a shine, say it

Oh, this is my song
I?m just like you I gotta fight to stay strong
Just 'cuz it clears it don?t mean that it?s over
I'm a shine while my lights on

I'm a shine, I'm a shine
I'm a shine while my lights on
I'm a shine, I'm a shine
I'm a shine while my lights on

You don?t know what my hate is baby
Nine kids in the yard it was kinda crazy
Still no kids thus far myself
I?m scared of the pain I might not do well as a mom

Still the work gets done
Yes, I worry 'bout bills but a change gonna come
I wanna play rapper, rock the bells
But I only gotta stack for the little Estelza

You don?t wanna know 'bout them days that go
I got pain overload
You don?t wanna know about the things I know
I just can't take no more

Most of the time though I gotta stay on
Gotta stay real, gotta stay strong
You know I?m heavy 'cuz I roll with gem
So I?m gonna be fresh when the lights come on, come on

Oh, this is my song
I?m just like you I gotta fight to stay strong
Just 'cuz it clears it don?t mean that it?s over
I'm a shine while my lights on

I'm a shine, I'm a shine
I'm a shine while my lights on
I'm a shine, I'm a shine
I'm a shine while my lights on

Everybody's watching tonight
It?s my time while the lights on
Everything I wanted is mine
I'm a shine

Oh, this is my song
I?m just like you I gotta fight to stay strong
Just 'cuz it clears it don?t mean that it?s over
I'm a shine while my lights on

I'm a shine, I'm a shine
I'm a shine while my lights on
I'm a shine, I'm a shine
I'm a shine while my lights on

I'm a shine, I'm a shine
I'm a shine, I'm a shine
I'm a shine, I'm a shine
I'm a shine while my lights on
