[00:00:03] Yeah yeah uhh uh huh

[00:00:07] Brand Nubian yeah yeah check it

[00:00:12] You don't have to drive a fancy car

[00:00:14] Just for you to be a shinin' star

[00:00:19] No matter who you are no matter who you are

[00:00:21] Uhh now it started it off for me in apartment 6C

[00:00:24] Project style ate government cheese for a while

[00:00:26] Pop Duke wasn't there cos he had to do a bid

[00:00:29] So momma love stuck with these bad ass kids

[00:00:31] She used to say keep your head up always think positive

[00:00:34] And never be ashamed of who you are or where you live

[00:00:37] Teenage years I had to struggle doing that

[00:00:39] Shorty say Don't talk to him girlfriend look where he live at

[00:00:42] Crib probably crawlin with roaches and rats

[00:00:43] Plus cats be in his hallways with the drugs and the gats

[00:00:46] I used to try and honeys used to walk on by

[00:00:49] Now I'm damn near 20 and still ain't got no ride

[00:00:51] Caught a record deal now them same old chicks that used to walk on by

[00:00:55] Go out their way to say hi

[00:00:57] But they gets none

[00:00:58] That's why I'm with the same girl from the same projects that I come from

[00:01:01] Because

[00:01:02] You don't have to drive a fancy car

[00:01:03] Just for you to be a shinin' star

[00:01:08] No matter who you are no matter who you are

[00:01:11] You don't have to drive a fancy car

[00:01:13] Just for you to be a shinin' star

[00:01:17] No matter who you are no matter who you are

[00:01:20] Well this is that time that you've waited for

[00:01:23] Three linked from what was said to be extinct

[00:01:25] You say take my weed-smellin ass home I'm grown

[00:01:28] More thirst than if I swallowed sand bags

[00:01:30] Not fiending enough to go out and grab bags from women

[00:01:33] I swear if we don't hear this on the air

[00:01:35] I'll be down at the station

[00:01:37] Your broadcast from Monday has now been switched to no day

[00:01:40] With the class team that I'm with we stay fit

[00:01:43] Just like the calm before the twister hit

[00:01:45] Brand Nubian name is gonna blister shit

[00:01:47] We raise the flags in three places

[00:01:50] Employ black faces from midnight blacks to light tan

[00:01:52] Brand Nubian straight rate policy for the world

[00:01:55] For your little man for your little girl from Cheryl to Earl

[00:01:57] Watch how it all go down and unfurl

[00:02:00] Mark this print I feel like we've all been sent

[00:02:02] It's more than gettin money and gettin bent

[00:02:04] (Word life cos you're a shinin' star)

[00:02:06] No matter who you are no matter who you are

[00:02:10] You don't have to drive a fancy car

[00:02:12] Just for you to be a shinin' star

[00:02:16] No matter who you are no matter who you are

[00:02:19] Brand Nubian cats spread

[00:02:22] A four letter word seldom heard amongst my nation

[00:02:24] Understandings highest elevation the foundation

[00:02:27] Of creation of motivation in my family there's no relation

[00:02:29] They got us willing to be killing off our population full time occupation

[00:02:34] We need to turn it around like oscillation

[00:02:37] Or watch it all burn to the ground from frustration

[00:02:39] Lord Jamar I'ma show love to all my people who show

[00:02:42] To me that's how it's gotta be

[00:02:43] Peace to Prodigy and Mobb Deep

[00:02:45] God's working hard on the streets for the love of the peeps

[00:02:48] Niggas bring their ass in the clubs every week

[00:02:51] Walk right past the brothers and they can't speak

[00:02:54] All hands meet to shake for Pete's sake

[00:02:57] Let's break the ice life livin love love livin life (Yeah)

[00:02:59] You don't have to drive a fancy car

[00:03:01] Just for you to be a shinin' star

[00:03:05] No matter who you are no matter who you are

[00:03:08] You don't have to drive a fancy car

[00:03:11] Just for you to be a shinin' star

[00:03:15] No matter who you are no matter who you are
