Sharing with us what he knows his shining eyes are big and blue
And all around him water flows this world to him is new
To touch a face to kiss a smile new eyes see no race
The essence of a child he’s born to shimmer born to shine
Born to radiate born to live born to love but we’ll teach him how to hate
And true love it is a rock smoothed over by a stream
And no ticking of a clock truly measures what that means
And this thing we call our time i heard a brilliant woman say
You know it’s crazy how i want to try and capture mine
I think i love this woman’s way the way she shimmers
The way she shines the way she lives the way she loves
The way she never hates sometimes i think of all the shit that can surround me
I know it all as being mine then she kisses me and wraps herself around me
She gives me love she gives me time and i feel fine but time i cannot change
So here’s to looking back i’d drink a bottle of my pride and toast to change
To keep these demons off my back get these demons off my back
Cause i want to shimmer i want to shine i want to radiate
I want to live i want to love i want to try and learn how not to hate
Try not to hate we’re born to shimmer we’re born to shine
We’re born to radiate we’re born to live we’re born to love
We’re born to never hate…
