Shine (feat. Mela Machinko)

[Chorus]:

In my heart, in my mind

I'm gon' win anytime

Tell me to wait, give me a sign

And I'm gon' shine

I'm gon' shine (9X)Look man, do not get my block pissed, we'll blast your brain!

Two hundred-thousand dollar whips and chains

Crooked cops, crips, crack cocaine, Tupac, Chris,

I'm still feeling the pain

Seven year-old girl shot and slain

What these all mean

We're goin' insane?

In this struggle, stress, mayhem and panic

Where I'm from we do not eat organic (talk about it)

See my mama cannot afford Whole Foods

She break fast with a prayer, call it soul food

Where I come from

Let it breathe

Where I come from

No one runs when funds run low

In lump sums we choose the dum dum dum bullets, dun dun

We living humdrum in the slums

Where scum conceal stun guns

The word's mum for fun, son

Conundrums ain't pretty

In this cesspool called New York Shitty

I call it that 'cause it smells like shit

Walk around hunchback or you might get hit

I knew a nigger who sold crack to his moms

The same motherfucker sold crack to his kids

Lookin' like 300 comin' back from his bid, like

"Pharoahe, let's get this money for real"[Chorus]He said "Pharoahe, let's get this money up!"

What the fuck?

What you need me to holler at Steve Rifkin?

Let him escape from New York like Snake Plissken?

I told you from the gate that you needed more marketing

And these major labels is not listening

Stood in a B-boy stance, teeth glistening

From the gold in his mouth, the summer breeze was whistling

I contemplated my retort, eyes fixed in

On a crucifix around his neck

I guess he was Christian

Just then the police siren it pitched into the sound

Track to the hood so I spoke with conviction

Spoke as if I was 6'10", thick skin,

Put a little bass in my voice like pitch bend

'Cause where I come from

Where I come from, we all come from

Sky, moon, stars, earth and a sun

Multiple skin tones, the blood is one

The pen is the ammo to my automatic

I bring to fruition what I write to get me out of the slums

And I'ma shine, sh-sh-shine, shine, shine

Shine like the sun, the world is mine

Each line is speech designed to transcend time and reach

The unborn and transform your mind

And I'ma shine

Shine[Chorus]New York If you're in the house

If you're turning it out without a doubt

You know what I'm talking about

Just scream and shout

Everybody say (sh-sh-shine shine shine)

Now Detroit with the funky beats

Gettin' wild on the street

See the mark of the beast

Say f*** the police

[What up, X?]

(Sh-sh-shine shine shine)

Chi-town, with the funky sound

Soul by the pound, just get on down

What the fuck do you WOAH!

Say (sh-sh-shine shine shine)

West coast side with the most

Holding your toast

Brag and boast

Everybody say shine shine shine

Dirty dirty (repeats)

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
