Shine
Unveiling Life's Spotlight: Embracing Your Unique Shine
Lyrics
You watch them watch you
You are aware of others observing you
You want them too
You desire their attention or approval
Then their faces fade away
Their presence or influence diminishes
You worked your whole life
You've dedicated your life to proving your ability to excel
To show them all that you have what it takes to shine
To demonstrate your capability to shine
Cause no one has what you have
You possess unique qualities
And no one ever will
No one else possesses what you have
You have heart
You have determination and courage
And that's all you need
Having heart and determination is sufficient
You're gonna shine for them
You'll shine on behalf of others
Shine for them
To radiate brilliance for them
Shine
To exhibit brightness or excellence
No matter what it takes you'll shine
No matter the effort, you'll display your brilliance
Well life got complicated
Life became complex
And no one ever waited
No one waited for you
And you son grew into a man
Your son grew up, and your desire was for love
And all you wanted was to be loved
Your wish was simply to be loved
But it ended up fitting you like some glove
However, it conformed to you in an unexpected way
Was strangling all your changes to shine
It hindered your opportunities to shine
But you'd show them all
You aimed to prove yourself despite obstacles
That you'd make them fall
To make them recognize your greatness
Cause they didn't understand a thing about
Others' lack of comprehension about your brilliance
The way you'd shine
The manner in which you radiate excellence
Oh you shine
Your ability to shine stands out
Your gonna shine for them
You'll showcase your brilliance for them
Shine for them
To shine on their behalf
Shine
To radiate brightness or excellence
No matter what it took you shine
Regardless of challenges, you'll display your brilliance
Now you're on the best stage
You're in the prime position
And in your best dress
In your best appearance
But the show is not for you
The performance isn't about you
It's a clown with a frown
It's about someone else's disappointment
In from out of town
A stranger, perhaps, not meeting expectations
And your hairdo's falling
Your appearance is faltering
And they're filling out and
Others are noticing your flaws
My God the clown is you
Surprisingly, it's you in that disappointing role
But you dance for someone that smiles at you
You perform for someone who appreciates you
And drift into the shadows of yourself
You retreat into your inner self
Off you go
You depart from the situation
But you shine for him
Your brilliance is displayed for another
Shine for him
To radiate excellence on their behalf
Shine
To showcase brightness or greatness
And now its time for them to shine for you
It's time for others to display their brilliance for you
Shine for them
To shine on their behalf
Shine for them
To radiate brightness or excellence
Shine
To display brilliance or greatness
