(The track kicks off immediately with a blazing fast afrobeats drum pattern and a sharp, punchy brass section. It's instantly danceable. Amari's vocals are sharp, percussive, and full of attitude.) [Verse 1 - female] Sabi girl stepping out, looking like a million bucks I don't need to beg for it, I don't need the stupid luck They see the way I'm glowing, they trying to steal the shine But you can't take the glory when the glory is divine I'm moving like a meteor, I'm burning up the sky You trying to ground me down, but I was born to fly I don't need validation from a boy who cannot see The universe is living right inside of me Yeah, the universe is living right inside of me [Pre-Chorus - female] Watch the way the colors bleed into the night We don't need the sun because we bring the light Everything is electric, everything is gold I am breaking out of every single mold [Chorus - female] We shining like neon, lighting up the dark Leaving every shadow with a permanent mark We shining like neon, brighter than the rest I'm a celestial being, put me to the test We shining like neon, lighting up the dark Leaving every shadow with a permanent mark We shining like neon, brighter than the rest I'm a celestial being, put me to the test (Instrumental break: A massive, heavy dancehall bassline drops under a frantic brass melody. Background vocals chant "Oya! Oya! Oya!" in rhythm.) [Verse 2 - female] You thought you had the power, you thought you had the key But you was just a chapter in my whole biography I'm elevating daily, I'm vibrating so high I see the haters talking, but I just wave goodbye I'm dripping in the confidence, I'm bathing in the grace I leave a trail of magic all over the place You want to be a star, but I'm the galaxy You better pay attention to the majesty Yeah, you better pay attention to the majesty [Chorus - female] We shining like neon, lighting up the dark Leaving every shadow with a permanent mark We shining like neon, brighter than the rest I'm a celestial being, put me to the test We shining like neon, lighting up the dark Leaving every shadow with a permanent mark We shining like neon, brighter than the rest I'm a celestial being, put me to the test [Bridge - female] (The heavy percussion drops out. A fast, arpeggiated synth line takes over. Amari's vocals speed up, almost rapping.) I don't fade out, I don't burn down I'm the brightest thing in this whole town I don't fade out, I don't burn down I'm the brightest thing in this whole town Watch me glow. Watch me glow. [Chorus - female] (The beat explodes back in with maximum energy, all instruments firing at once.) We shining like neon, lighting up the dark Leaving every shadow with a permanent mark We shining like neon, brighter than the rest I'm a celestial being, put me to the test We shining like neon, lighting up the dark Leaving every shadow with a permanent mark We shining like neon, brighter than the rest I'm a celestial being, put me to the test [Outro - female] (The brass section plays one final, triumphant melody before cutting out sharply on the last beat.) Celestial. Brighter than the rest. Yeah.
