My daily motivation
Exceed expectations
Trials and tribulations
I view as preparation
For the real world
That do not give a F*ck
About you problems
You reaching out for help
When you the only one
That could solve them
Quit saying what you won't do
Stand up on your own two
Stop being new slaves
Letting corporations own you
I contemplate the future
Of my daughter everyday
Though I may not have it now
Where there's a will
There is a way
A man of many talents
Seldom prone to violence
Except when I'm provoked
By those who belittle my hope
What's wrong with trying to
Pray your way up out your situation
Before you can achieve it
You must dream it
Then believe it
My faith lies in God
Not your man made religion
Though I love my Church going family
That is a given
A simple kind of guy
Prefer the truth to any lie
And the truth is right now
I'm tired of just getting by
In America
You don't have to settle
You can be anything
You want to be
I keep it real
Got a job
Living paycheck to paycheck
Sometimes I really feel
Like I don't know how we gone make it.
We don't ball
Don't Splurge
Resist and fight the urge
To keep up with the Kardashians
I don't got time to be distracted
With you false sense of success
The ruler of my kingdom
Your opinion I don't stress
I'm doing this for me
My family and the future
I'm winning cause I lead
Following you
I'd be a loser
That real shit
So since you getting goosebumps
Be careful what you wish for
It may not be what you want
So many people walking round
Saying they a boss
Got section 8 housing
Still can't pay the cost
But
I can't judge you
My Jesus told me
I'm pose to love you
So, instead of putting you down
I'm a motivate and show you
How to turn this around
In America
You don't have to settle
You can be anything
You want to be
In America
You don't have to settle
You can be anything
You want to be
