Shine Lyrics by Dirty Lu

Dripped In Gold

2016

[Hook: Dirty Lu]
(I just wanna shine, I just wanna rhyme, I just want a slime, I just want a dime)x4

[Verse 1: Dirty Lu]
I just wanna shine, I just want what's mine, build me a shrine, give me the time, God, give me a sign, I'm in it for the long run, pray to God this tape is a home run, I'm on one, shit, I'm on one, Dripped In Gold is shining, word up, it's a ace, word to Drake's uncle, I'm out here from a far away place, I need my space, I need more bass, get the fuck out my face. I'm stressed, too much mess, I hate school, I hate college, I confess, it ain't got me blessed, it's a waste of life, a waste of time, waste of day, waste of night, so I write, sippin' on Sprite, school is the reason some kids addicted to white, I heard this girl from my school overdosed on heroin, you think if she ever went to school, she could've bought all that medicine? I ain't sayin' school don't mean good, I mean they did all they could, but after 10th Grade, school's just pointless, regurgitating old information, we don't get choices, forced to take classes for jobs that nobody wants, if we could choose a major in high school, more people could stunt, if my album blow up, I'm droppin' out, tell everyone I opted out, to live the life I chose, Lord knows from the highs and the lows, I'm meant to give the world a show, I know my destiny, it isn't rest in peace, it ain't no 9 to 5 just to survive

[Hook: Dirty Lu]
(I just wanna shine, I just wanna rhyme, I just want a slime, I just want a dime)x4

[Verse 2: Dirty Lu]
Tryna go worldwide while I'm fried and now is my time, it's my time to shine, it's the time of our lives, it's prime time, I was born in '99, '01 the world changed when they crashed the World Trade, '04 there was the war, in Iraq 170 people died before Madrid was attacked, '08 the year of the first black president, but the global financial crisis he couldn't ever prevent, in 2012 we lost Whitney Houston, the world was gonna end according to stupids, in 2014 we feared Ebola while in Syria ISIS rolled up, but hold up, in 2015 they fucked up Paris, the world was watching the lives get perished, in 2016 Donald Trump becomes president, then I move to Canada in seek of a new residence, yeah, I just wanna, I just wanna, I just wanna shine

[Hook: Dirty Lu]
(I just wanna shine, I just wanna rhyme, I just want a slime, I just want a dime)x4

[Verse 3: Dirty Lu]
I predict the future, the world gets scary, but mine is dope as fuck after February because I finally get to shine, I get remote control blinds, all the weed I could ever want, it all goes sublime, it's my time, it's prime time, I just rapped a timeline, give me some credit but I ain't no Einstein, I've been tryna follow guidelines my whole entire lifetime until I realized that I shine, yeah, I shine

[Hook: Dirty Lu]
(I just wanna shine, I just wanna rhyme, I just want a slime, I just want a dime)x2
