[Chorus]
Mama told me one day I will shine, Mama told me one day I will shine
Lord, mama told me one day I'll shine, I realized when the time came to shine
Mama told me one day I will shine, Mama told me one day I will shine
Lord, mama told me one day I'll shine, I realized when the time came to shine
[Verse 1: K3N SILS]
I grew up in the era where things were tough, and my family was struggling financially, so I couldn't have everything I wanted in life but I kept on praying hoping for a better day, mama told me things are tough now but not ever, all you gotta do is work hard and keep the vision, it doesn't matter how long the dream takes to happen, it takes a while for some people exercise some patience, this is me holding on exercising patience, I believe the son about to bring light in the dark, and so, all the walls that are broken restore, Lord, all the promises fully recall
[Chorus]
Mama told me one day I will shine, Mama told me one day I will shine
Lord, mama told me one day I'll shine, I realized when the time came to shine
Mama told me one day I will shine, Mama told me one day I will shine
Lord, mama told me one day I'll shine, I realized when the time came to shine
[Verse 2: K3N SILS]
I don't care how long this journey takes, ama keep pressing till I reach the finish line, I told myself these worlds and they kept me moving, they kept me pushing, they kept me working yea they kept me fighting, you can tell yourself words that can change your life, they changed mine I believe they can change yours, all you gotta do is work for it fight for it, illuminate let the whole world see your shine, (shine) and I ain't talking about a co-sign, you were made in his image you were made to shine, you was born to be the change, so be the change the world wanna see when they see you
[Chorus]
Mama told me one day I will shine, Mama told me one day I will shine
Lord, mama told me one day I'll shine, I realized when the time came to shine
Mama told me one day I will shine, Mama told me one day I will shine
Lord, mama told me one day I'll shine, I realized when the time came to shine
