Meji - Shine Lyrics

(Clears throat)
Wetin be that my intro again
Meji is the one

My low self-esteem used to bend me and then f*ck me over
Now my self esteem issues are like Beyonce Knowles cause they f*cking over (cause they f*cking over)
Had to reach out to my Maker and I told Him
I don't care about my font size just as long as he can make me bolder (Just as long as he can make me bolder)
Hiding my emotions behind emojis like a little bitch (Like a little bitch)
Like a toilet brush in the bin I've been through a lotta shit (Lotta shit)
You see this money bro I wanna make a lotta sheets
But Ion believe in luck or any lotto shit
Want my mama to reap the fruits of her labour I'm just tryna be ripe (I'm just tryna be ripe)
I was born a southpaw but I'm just tryna do right (just tryna do right)
Making good music while I try to make a good life (Make a good life)
I be aiming for that Grammy but I ain't tryna be 9ice (No shade)
I been through the burner boy tryna make it to Heaven's gate (Whoo!)
I got third degree burns I could show you my receipts (I could show you my receipts)
No company's HR can't stop this fire in me (Never!)
Blowing up like a hand grenade with no firing pin
I feel like the American Visa a lotta people don't get me (Lotta people don't get me)
I've been misunderstood by tons of people who haven't met me (Facts)
Wish you had binoculars to see me in the sky (see me in the sky)
You gon see that I'm a star who's just only tryna shine

This little light of mine I'm gon' let it shine (I'm gon' let it shine)
Hope you get to see me shining from a thousand miles (Oh yeah)
Tryna make a couple millions from a couple rhymes (Tryna make a couple millions)
Wanna ball before I make it to the other side (Oh yeah)
Yeah
Keep showing your support keep streaming all my songs I'm just tryna let my light shine
Ye
I'm just tryna let my light shine before it's past nine

Yeah
Uhn
I'm gon' shine in due time hold your horses (Horses)
Got that diarrhoea flow I don't force shit (Nigga Ion force shit)
Mi o need lati Dele Momodu ki n to gba standing ovation (Oh no)
It's hard building a stable career in this horse shit (In this horse shit)
I pray my fans ain't sleeping on me like the girl of my dreams (Wake up)
Hope they get to see my true persona (Get to see my true persona)
She prolly thinks I'm a f*ckboy
Yeah
I'm a rapper from West that don't make me no Casanova
I'm a brown dwarf tryna be a supernova (Tryna be a supernova)
I'm hiphop's tomorrow people I am paranormal (I am paranormal)
Never gonna back down till I'm outta the background
One year is the countdown
Very soon I'm taking over (Taking over)
Mi o fe gbe irin tutu ki n tole pawo (Ki n tole pawo)
So I keep dropping hot bars ti mo le fi pawo (Ti mo le fi pawo)
Tryna be like Otedola but I'm sticking to my Forte while I'm tryna get to my Pinnacle
And f*ck you to ba rope mi le danwo

This little light of mine I'm gon' let it shine (I'm gon' let it shine)
Hope you get to see me shining from a thousand miles (Oh yeah)
Tryna make a couple millions from a couple rhymes (Tryna make a couple millions)
Wanna ball before I make it to the other side (Oh yeah)
Yeah
Keep showing your support keep streaming all my songs I'm just tryna let my light shine
Ye
I'm just tryna let my light shine before it's past nine (yeah)
I'm just tryna let my light shine
Tryna let my light shine

Tryna, tryna let my
Whoo!...
