Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo,
I used to worry about the he say, she say
Worry how I came across like a relay,
Scared to look weird like a toupee
Always looking back it's the replay,
I never knew the power that I had
And honestly I live behind the shadow of my past
Concerned of stepping out cause I don't want nobody judging me
I'm different
That's the voice that always used to bug me
I
I never took a chance on me
When things went wrong I put the blame on me
Consumed by my failures they was chains on me
Didn't know the way to make the change in me
I learned, the way to kill fear was to activate
Gotta be humble, willing to make mistakes
Gotta know what you want deep down inside
Resilience, I'll never be denied
Climbed to the mountaintop so I could touch the sky
Clouds wasn't there cause I was so high
Couldn't see this high looking from the ground
Brought my friends with me say can see it with their eyes
I see my fears getting bodied by the plans I acquired
Know that if I stay consistent know my dreams are driving
Look ahead to the future I can see the horizon
Can't wait for the day when my dreams realize
Man I know that I can do this
And this love is the truest
So like a champion I just do it
I can do all things
Philippians 4 13
That's why I'm here to bring this message to you
I'm a Christian so you know I'm about to bring that good news
Time to step out, you know what you know to do
Don't be worried about the people cause they waiting on you
Most of us if not all of us have dreams and goals right
But what keeps us from getting those things man
It's fear, whether it's fear of failure
Will I mess up or fear success
What if it works out and I'm not ready for it
Man it's that type of thing that holds you back
It's all in how you think man
So I know, right now you may feel like you can't do it
But I challenge you
Do it in small steps and gain some momentum
Build some confidence
Don't just think about it, do it now
If you was better than me I didn't like you
Every time you won something I despised you
Stayed awake at night thinking I could beat you
Jealous of your success you were my idol
I thought because I seen you do it I could do it automatically
But when I attempted ooh I did it tragically
And I hate when you tell me I'm good
Don't flatter me
Why can't I have success on my own
Why I gotta do everything on my own
Lone wolf strong but a wolf's all alone
Man I got trust issues and they feel set in stone, But uh...
Maybe if I humble myself
Maybe if I would just ask for some help
My life would be further than I realize
My fear control hate control pride
Ignorant
Scared to be different
Diligent
To make excuses too legit
Harboring
How I felt and how I live
I'm Pharaoh...Ra
Y'all know what it is
All lights all eyes on me
Like I'm Ray Allen with my team down three
Like I'm Bryce Harper bout to take that swing
Yo entitlement
That's the biggest problem with me
Uh
Cause nothing in this world is free
If you want something bad gotta go for your dreams
Ain't too many people handed opportunities
So you gotta take em
And be successful by any means
And when it happens don't forget where you come from
And don't forget all the people that support you
And give back, give back like you supposed to
And watch God make everything more bro
Man I never saw how much hatred and jealousy I had in my heart
Until I met somebody who was really successful
And I realized the only reason I was jealous of them
Was because I wanted to be better than them
And the truth is I wasn't
And looking at my life and how it was going
Wasn't even close
And that false sense of pride
Thinking that I was better than other people
And that entitlement thinking I deserved something I never worked for
It became painfully obvious to me that I was living a lie
A lie built on selfishness
Poor self image
False humility
And a lack of discipline
So I don't know who this message is for
Maybe you just like me
You deal with the fear
The hate
And the pride
Or maybe you got some other things that you're dealing with
Understand this
Life is more than our pains
Our problems
And our struggles
There was a man that came down from heaven
To give us not only eternal life
But new life on earth
His name is Jesus
