[Intro: Ol' Dirty Bastard]

[Verse 1: Ol' Dirty Bastard]
I'm the Eddie Kane of the Wu-Tang
Osiris with the fire extinguisher slang
Maintain this paradise on this earth
With the shut-the-fuck-up style for what the shit is worth
Watch a n***a catch a purse, superhero n***as die
Do my dirt, get away and multiply

[Verse 2: Prodigal Sunn]
The young entrepreneur, wisdom sharpshooter, dark colour
The black sire, smack fire out of the liar
My heart desire: speak truth till I inspire
The clever writer, live wire, never retire
The child teacher, loud speaker, earth seeker
The wind blower, to the seas, I'm like Noah

[Hook: Earth, Wind & Fire] (x2)
You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be

[Verse 3: Hell Razah]
Uh, ayo, this masterpiece be exclusive but fascinating
Street knowledge education
Teach the seeds, son, no procrastinatin'
Ghetto learnin', graduatin'
Blessed be the ones with patience from the ancient
God bless the child that could hold his own
Little shorties don't trust a soul, it's all globe control
Earth, Wind & Fire, Sunz of Man and Wyclef
We connect like we Nynex to bring the intellect
We teach both sex, Brooklyn to Tibet
Male or female, who follow footsteps incorrect
[Verse 4: 60 Second Assassin]
I'm a shining star, beam of light from out far
Hits like these would burn holes through our reservoir
Espionage, let it be known we take charge
Come hard with the underground like camouflage
Keep it bizarre and mainstream for the young king
Though, if it don't, be for Clarence the Thirteenth

[Hook: Earth, Wind & Fire] (x2)
You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be

[Verse 5: Prodigal Sunn]
Escapin' the ghetto using the bass, tempo and treble
In the streets, we carry heavy metal, war with the Devil
Yo, son, life is reality, reality is life
People livin' trife, the world filled with strife
The Gods livin' right in this act, too many lack
Black on black crime, no vest, another victim laid to rest

[Verse 6: 60 Second Assassin]
It's been a long time to be certain
Sunz of Man Mahdees of wall searchin'
The heat is perkin', Earth, Wind & Fire burnin'
Sensation, yearnin' and learnin' situation
Wyclef, platinum hits, beast nation
It's what your life could truly be:
Anticipation
[Hook: Earth, Wind & Fire] (x2)
You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be

[Verse 7: Ol' Dirty Bastard]
When I was young, I taught how to produce
The science of babies gettin' loose
I turn white boys to Springsteens Bruce
Black to school, to the Chinese I gave brews
I can't help it if my style is foggy, worst to boogie
Get ya high on my patio or come to see me movie
Girls, they walking on my dirt, I'm all in ya ear
I'll make your life plain, call Herc, love potion

[Verse 8: Hell Razah]
For all my shining stars from here to L.A. to Mars
Growin' up in the ghetto, where times is hard
No matter who you are, you a child of God
Born as a king, not a slave for jobs
It's much more to life then to drink in bars
Large bank accounts and these fancy cars
Little King Tuts, they schemin' when they lust
They get handcuffed for diamond ring cuts

[Hook: Earth, Wind & Fire] (x2)
You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be
