lyrics

Verse 1:

One fine day, I was hanging around
The perfect time to mess around with the sound

So off to the lab I go, to do my thing
Make a beat that's a treat, write a rhyme or sing

Closing my eyes and focusing in on the zone
Creating while guided by the Muse alone

Then suddenly, I rose high in the air
Past the clouds in this out-of-body affair 

Going fast into outer space
Weaving thru the stars at a blinding pace

At the speed of light, by the planets I race
Time was gone - vanished without a trace

Then near the sun, a voice says to me:
"U are my child so let yourself be
 
What I made you to be - a grand design
U're a star my son - go forth and SHINE!"

Verse 2
 ---------

In amazement…

 To this voice I replied:
"Who are you and can you tell me why…

you chose to speak to me in this way
tell me exactly what U wanna say"

The voice replied, "What I say is true…
I am the one that created you...

Anything and everything, big or small
near and far, short and tall

up or down, left or right….
positive and negative, dark and light…

I'm the one who gave U an ear for the groove
to make it real funky or to make it smooth...

I gave you the skills to freak the beat
That makes all the listeners tap their feet...

And nod their heads while keeping time -
Just like I told you - You're designed to SHINE!

Verse 3
-----------
The voice said "I want U know and to understand
That everything is going according to plan

Even if 2 U things don't make sense
Go all out, don't straddle the fence;

Keep on doing what U're born to do
And remember 'to thine's own self be true'...

So no more doubts or contemplation
Go back to the lab and make a dope creation...

We know music is your stimulation
Hence the birth of The Flavor Foundation

By the way, your Mom and Dad say 'Hi'
They're chillin' at my crib: Heaven Divine"

And just like that, to my surprise
I'm back in the lab when I open my eyes

Took a trip thru time & space - all inside my mind
No time to waste y'all - SHINE!
