It's easy too me
Nine ten Flow places to go
People to see
Pen game
Pure T raw I live by that motto Down by law
Every bar is lighting in a bottle
What the fuck do I know
You know It's us they follow
I'm on my game as if I was trained
Cause D'amato
Dance on breaks and rock Steady B I'm serious
Don't be poor Georgie and get curious
That's how we do thangs
Something new mane
Food for thought
I'm straight dropping jewels and all
No comparing mines slime
Man I'm in too deep
I'm Going for it like 01 Temple
Sweet 16
Can it all be so simple on a beat this mean
And these bars super sharp
Cutting crispy clean
Get on ya job black man
Get straight
I don't care if you from the hood
My nigga don't be good
Be great
(Who you are)
Shout out to the boys and girls
It's your time
It's your world
(Is where you been)
Don't forget where came from
Remember that you ain't done
(Came too far)
From the place that you started at
Struggle is a part of that
(Not to win)
Whichever choice you make
What you do
Don't be good
Be great
(Who you are)
Yo
I coulda been a five percenter
I was just
Tryna stay alive
And survive the winter
You can see all the pride that's in us
If you look close
You can recognize all the guys that's winners
It's not the ones in designer fashions
Its the ones that look deep inside and they find the passion
Its like integrity is underrated
But I vow to be one of them
Ones til the sun has faded
And ima keep moving unimpeded
If you can't relate to what I'm saying
U the one that need it
The best teams don't go undefeated
Adversity can build character
But only some receive
They so worried bout
Looking like they winning
Buy drip
Then end up looking like they women
That kind of man I would hate to be
Guess that's why most of y'all can't relate to me
Forreal
(Who you are)
Shout out to the boys and girls
It's your time
It's your world
(Is where you been)
Don't forget where came from
Remember that you ain't done
(Came too far)
From the place that you started at
Struggle is a part of that
(Not to win)
Whichever choice you make
What you do
Don't be good
Be great
(Who you are)
Only 2 percent of teachers are black males
We pack jails
Generations
In education
Blacks trail
To God be the glory
Protect my young for me
Used to lynch us
Same story
A hung jury
With my fellas in Brazil
Favelas
Deposits with the teller
My first book was a best seller
They say my resumes is legendary
Black History Month
They'll have to add some extra days to February
Life conversations
How to calm the nation donations to congregations
Shows, Flight confirmations
Had to deal with doubters
Now they make a big deal about us
And they can't make a deal without us
You hear the song but the real appeal when you get it
When it resonate the same feel when you read it
He worried about buying new wheels with his credit
She worried about
If the wig is real or synthetic
Shout to Military
Good cops
And first responders
Who work with honor
There with the worst upon us
In school known as the music dude
L.E.D lights with colors like a Rubik's cube
Reflect my music mood
I knew the rules
I was bored
Wasn't a stupid dude
Public or charter
I was smarter than the rubrics used
The kids ain't scared that someone told
Afraid to get old
Cause their parents didn't reach their goals
(Who you are)
Shout out to the boys and girls
It's your time
It's your world
(Is where you been)
Don't forget where came from
Remember that you ain't done
(Came too far)
From the place that you started at
Struggle is a part of that
(Not to win)
Whichever choice you make
What you do
Don't be good
Be great
(Who you are)
(Is where you been)
(Came to far)
(Not to win)
