lyrics

I was young, I had a voice, I didn’t own it.
Because my stepfather he never encouraged it.
Because he never had the time to cry to a song.

I was young, I had a voice then didn’t want it.
And my mother only wanted me to show it.
She only ever wished that I, wished that I,
would shine.

Shine

I was young, I had a voice but didn’t grow it.
There was pressure in my life to ignore it.
I was told there wasn’t money in crying to a song.

Shine

I was young, I had a voice but didn’t need it.
There were other ways to pay my rent.
More monetary ways my time, be spent.
But all she wanted, all she wanted was for me,
to shine.
