Lyrics

Yo, oh, oh [Verse 1] If it's meant to be it will be We try so hard to keep em, forcing situations What's the outcome if the income is of value? Does your morals and your values Suggest you have no right to an opinion? Your position that you're in, does it determine How your life will pan out? Running a mile in these shoes for you to compete I stand out Would it be necessary? Military's covering my doubt I'm giving orders and there be no need to say "Roger that" You should already know I got the city all on my back And I be in the studio all day recording them tracks To master my craft of learning my art 'Cause everything I say is coming straight from the heart I'm the type to bring it together, not tear it apart By the grace of God they'll see I just say inshallah My words are just my thoughts I'm just speaking my mind in these lines And if you can relate, it's up to you to decide But choose right! And I say [Interlude] So How do you, as a person, as an individual in fact Distinguish yourself from others? Like what makes you unique? Do you just follow the crowd, believe everything that's told to you? Or are you strong minded in the sense where you pay no attention to what people think about you? (Yuh, yuh) 'Cause these things count you know, these things count [Verse 2] We come from a land where information is elsewhere We don't need to know We don't need to know? Well that's BS! They just want us all to play the game like a DS Trying to insert lies up in my brain, pressing eject Do I have the power to do so? Just like a shotta that has the power to move o's, is it easy enough? Well I don't think it's easy at all Would you rather have a screw loose Or just be used as a tool? And until you think about what you would rather be I'ma keep spreading my message till it's overseas Trying to educate the people that listen to me 'Cause if you're not learning at school then listen to me Yo I ain't trying to say I know everything 'Cause nobody can know everything Just take me in small doses like you have medicine And I can guarantee that you will feel better when You listen to this [Interlude] So, in continuation from my previous question Which I hope you've at least thought about I'm not expecting you to give me an answer, don't worry But! If you can work out that Do you don't think you can work out your purpose of being here In terms of your life? I don't even know if I can It's just a question I'm throwing out there For you to think about (Listen!) Who knows you might work it out, who knows [Verse 3] Look, understand you're worth more than gold Never put a price on my soul, it can't be sold Tryna put some ice on your chain but it's getting old You can never try to complain, this is what you chose It's one thing tryna put on for your fam To doing nothing but tryna please your fans To getting calls from friends you've never had Shit like this could really turn anyone mad But I ain't anyone, or better than anyone I'm just tryna make music till it's heard by everyone See you're shocked or just very stunned By the way I kill flows and then bury 'em It's that new God flow but no Mary's son I know that my God knows I'm the chosen one See, we laughing now at these slums But they still laugh about where we from Please correct me now if I'm wrong [Interlude] Man, got a lot to say? Well it's like fuck what you know Listen to the song, man Trying to make a stamp in the industry But it's getting kinda long, man Plus these people saying "Why you come here, go back to where you belong" But home is the heart, where I'm from And there it goes [Outro] Alright guys, that's class done for today Please if you can Quickly and quietly put your books on the top shelf And any pens you've borrowed in the basket I'm sorry if today was a bit deep I promise next lesson won't be as deep We will have a bit of fun And uh, yeah, that's it you're free to go (Ay, don't do that, put that back) (Put that back... Good)
