[Verse]

Late night, city lights, headphones on blast

Dreams in the rearview, future in the dash

Used to be broke with a heart full of doubt

Now I’m plotting every step, no easy way out

I took the pain, turned it into a wave

Turned the hate into heat, let the speakers play

They said I’d fade, but I’m here to stay

Put my scars on the beat, now the world gon’ sway

[Pre-Chorus]

I don’t need luck, I got drive

Turn the hurt to a vibe, keep the hope alive

Every fall taught me how to fly

Now I’m breaking through the night

[Chorus]

I’m on my way up, I can’t slow down

Dreams too loud, can’t turn ‘em down

Hands in the sky, feel the city now

Yeah, we shining, yeah, we shining out loud

[Verse 2]

Bad days tried to chain me, couldn’t keep me low

Every no they threw just helped me grow

Now I’m on beats like a journal flow

Writing my truth so the world will know

No silver spoon, but I built my lane

Made my own rules, danced in the rain

Now I’m vibin’ while they whisper my name

This is more than a dream, it’s a lifelong flame

[Pre-Chorus]

I don’t need luck, I got drive

Turn the hurt to a vibe, keep the hope alive

Every fall taught me how to fly

Now I’m breaking through the night

[Chorus]

I’m on my way up, I can’t slow down

Dreams too loud, can’t turn ‘em down

Hands in the sky, feel the city now

Yeah, we shining, yeah, we shining out loud

Yeah, we shining, yeah, we shining out loud

Yeah, we shining, yeah, we shining out loud

[Bridge]

From the basement beats to the neon stage

Every heartbreak turned into a page

Now the crowd’s alive when they hear my name

Yeah, this is my escape, my flame, my claim

[Chorus]

I’m on my way up, I can’t slow down

Dreams too loud, can’t turn ‘em down

Hands in the sky, feel the city now

Yeah, we shining, yeah, we shining out loud

Yeah, we shining, yeah, we shining out loud

Yeah, we shining, yeah, we shining out loud
