Shine On - Nas

Lyrics
words to study

[Man Singing & Humming in Foreign Language]

[Intro: Nas]

They wanna shine on 'em

Shine on 'em [x7]

Yeah

[Verse 1: Nas]

They dug me out the soil in the Mines of the Motherland

Now I'm misplaced, one hand to another hand

Illegal smugglin', people strugglin'

Wish they could just throw me back in the mud again

Yeah, guess that's how we got here

Slave Trade then the Diamond Trade

Every child's afraid

When his Mother and Father get sprayed

Forced in the Army, young killer Brigade

Gets a new name and then he give his nose glue

Til' his mind can't take what he's gon' through

Lookin' in that dirt for that ice so blue

Then The Royal Family, the ice goes to

And this thing has to change, feelin' half-ashamed

As I rap with my Platinum chain

When you shop for a gift for me
