Shine Songtext
von TOBi

Your soul has been calling out to me
Been singing your song
You been on my mind all day, mind all day
Won′t you pick up the phone?
Even thru the hard times
Hard times

You shining on
Yeah, it's been a long time
Long time
Keep shining on

My bro just got a daughter, I remember weekends
We was talking about our fathers, how we′d never be them
Shit, I forgave mine he only human
And to be truthful
You know the fruit don't fall far, business as usual

Itching to see results I get it
These grapevines a make wine, really just take time and effort
He said "life keep passing me by". I asked "why?"
He naturally gifted he don't actually try


Said "What you know about having the drive?
Then crashing the ride
Cuz your inner critic sitting on the passenger side"
I was stunned I ain′t have a reply

But realized everything you need you got it inside, yeah
Eye of the storm yeah
You know we calm there
We not all cut from the same cloth at all yeah

Covered in Kente and mom prayers
And in some Moncler
Check in the bag you know it′s all there
Pick up the phone yeah

Your soul has been calling out to me
Been singing your song
You been on my mind all day, mind all day
Won't you pick up the phone? (Won′t you pick up the phone)
Even thru the hard times
Hard times


You shining on (you shining on)
Yeah it's been a long time
Long time
Keep shining on (you know am shinning on)
Ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho-ho-ho-ho

Pardon my ways pardon me
Pardon the part in the fade
Pardon the steeze, I′m just dotting my I's
Crossing my T′s

Me as a teen aye
All I wanted was ice in my wrist
Then I got it with my heart on my sleeve
Zero degrees

Yeahh
Kill the hoopla
Where Im from to survive
You don't choose sides

Keep it neutral
Moms got two jobs
Pops two lives
I done ran thru the mud a few times, in Nike boots

But Thank god me and Jimmy the same shoe size
Gotta move wise
So you don't stutter when you talk
Am I my brothers keepers for sure

If I′m your cane you more than able to walk
Lit a ray in the dark
What′s more motivating than seeing the homie make it?
They envy us but it's corrosive to they inner greatness

Seen what a lack of self love does for health
She love her nigga more than he love himself
She like don′t doubt yourself
Put my pride aside decide to ask for help

Now i'm on the road to get the title belt
All is well
And even though we roll on separate roads
And you feeling like you moving all alone know

Your soul has been calling out to me
Been singing your song
You been on my mind all day, mind all day
Won′t you pick up the phone?
Even thru the hard times
Hard times

You shining on
Yeah it's been a long time
Long time
Keep shining on

Ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho-ho-ho-ho
