  • Songwriters: Jo Cang, Brinsley Forde, Angus Gaye, Tony Robinson, Rick Wakeman

Come on and shine, shine like a star
(Shine, ah ha)
Shining so bright, like the star that you are
(Ah ha, ah ha)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, shine into the future
(Shine, ah ha)
Spreading your light wherever you are
(Ah ha, ah ha)

I burn like a fire left in the rain
As I run the race, oh, yes, I feel the pain
From the resistance, I'm feeling the strain
Now the realization is that we are all born the same

Come on and shine, shine like a star
(Shine, ah ha)
Shining so bright, like the star that you are
(Ah ha, ah ha)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, shine into the future
(Shine, ah ha)
Spreading your light wherever you are
(Ah ha, ah ha)

I reach for the moon and I reach for the stars
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
With the strength from within me, yeah
The further and faster I run
Stretching my sinews to the bone
(Ooh)
Achieving all goals that I seek, I know I must do it alone
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

When they said I'd never make it
I found strength from within
(Ooh)
'Cause it is there if you seek it
So you can get it if you really want so

Shine, shine like a star
(Shine, ah ha)
Shining so bright, like the star that you are
(Ah ha, ah ha)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, shine into the future
(Shine, ah ha)
Spreading your light wherever you are
(Ah ha, ah ha)

Oh, oh, oh, oh, shine
Shine, shine your light
Shine, shine your light
Yes, we're badder than bad

Nigel Benn, the warrior, called the Dark Destroyer
Eubank, simply the best, nobody alive can touch that
Linford Christle, say nobody alive can catch me
Moving like lightning with enough energy

Shine, shine your light
Yes, we're badder than bad
Shine, shine your light
Yes, we're badder than bad

Him a floating like a butterfly, the hurdling man
Yes, me a chat about Colin Jackson
The crowd is roaring, Ian Wright scoring
Boogie man a fe the mighty champion fe we
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

When they said I'd never make it
I found strength from within
(Ooh)
'Cause it is there if you seek it
So you can get it if you really want so
