Lyrics
We grew up with show business on our mind and hoped to make a big name
That's why me and my sister was in stiff
Competition, show off and confident came
Now my little cousin wasn't shy to step in front
Of the rest of the family and shake that ass
Although my sister was the one with the
Beautiful voice, I still had to go last
Everybody waiting on me to cut a fool, so nigga, laugh and act goofy
I easily came in the room and ain't go by the
Seat of Michael Jackson and just act stupid
But lately, me and my people been having too many family groupings
Or maybe it's just sometimes heard the sweet melody of my baby hooping
You was there through the struggling
Short coming, trying to reach the big picture
I'm telling you, hurting to play through
Something somebody love and it's time to do it
They can't be with you
I'm feeling guilty to take your things but better since you been gone
But no matter how much I fix up, the
Fresh ain't the same when you ain't home
Baby, I'ma miss you forever, forget you never
But you gon' see the world through my eyes and live what I never
So if you can see me wave from Heaven over the clouds
You can be proud of your little brother, so look down and smile
Shine my lady, I miss you baby
For you're my baby, my love is crazy
You're my sister, I'll always miss you
No one can get you, 'cause God is with you
Shine my lady, I miss you baby
For you're my baby, my love is crazy
There's no other, it's from your brother
Your son and mother, 'cause we all love you
All the sad songs in the world probably
Couldn't express how much I miss my baby
I just thank God that I had a big sister
The twin I lived every year that He gave her
Even the day when I misbehaved and I knew
She was gon' get that belt to pop me
I could see the aggravation in your face
And my mama said that they had to watch me
She'd tell me to go somewhere, said, "
Michael, what you know what that meant?"
All up and down I was in the trap of
Finding how your time gon' be spent
'Cause I was too hard-headed, every way
You said don't go, that's where I went
Always flipping, jumping around like a
Jackass, somewhere climbing the fence
Riding my rocket ride, my double dutch bus
She had some songs to sing for us
We had some things we had to discuss
Plus I wanted to tell her I was sorry for leaving the toilet seat up
And not cleaning out the tub and leaving peanut
Butter and jelly drinking out the Kool-Aid jug
I pissed you off and burned you up
When you told me, "Cut that music down," I turned it up
Bickering, conflict, cussing, shout out how we showed our love
You was my flesh and blood, we was
Brother and sister and it meant so much
Now I'm doing what you supposed to be
We supposed to be writing songs together
I'm telling you that girl tore down and
Showed up with all Tina Marie records
What you left us with will never be in vain
You gon' be shining, they gon' know your name
Too many damn things left unexplained
But since you was an angel down here
Then an angel there you shall remain
And that's always until my time
You're my strength and you're my life
Shine my lady, I miss you baby
For you're my baby, my love is crazy
You're my sister, I'll always miss you
No one can get you, 'cause God is with you
Shine my lady, I miss you baby
For you're my baby, my love is crazy
There's no other, it's from your brother
Your son and mother, 'cause we all love you
Shine on, shine on
'Cause we do miss you
There's no other like you
Shine on, shine on
'Cause we do miss you, oh you
