Let's Thrive Video (MV)

You will fail if you're standing, you better man up
Why, Because worrying faces standing in place all die
Persistence is power, power is money lets rise
Let's rise, let's rise, let's rise, let's thrive

You don't know the origins of my story
I don't expect for you to understand it, two different planets
Since our first encounter, you left us stranded, feeling abandoned
If we flash out you will seek asylum in other places
It was your doings that made us violent, by dividing the races
From the time it takes us to sort things out, to a thriving nation
It will take us years upon years, and I don't have the patience
I'm running out fast, stressed, fatigued, and gassed
Somehow I'll always, somehow I'll always last
Sometimes I have to laugh because we are more blessed than not
But if it is me who's reading the sings, either you are down or not
You can't pretend with this it is either fight or flight
We take caffeine rapidly to make it through the night
Because when morning comes, we are dropping all of our bombs
So don't you be alarmed, we are walking through this storm

You will fail if you're standing, you better man up
Why, Because worrying faces standing in place all die
Persistence is power, power is money lets rise
Let's rise, let's rise, let's rise, lets thrive

You don't know the origins of my story
In this Goldilocks zone where life is barely habitable
Our actions are unfathomable
I guess it is safe to say I started out at the port, right by the new bridge
And nowadays it the same old blocks, Just a bunch of new kids
We founded Antioch, so define the gentile
Place saint in front of Paul and he is catholic now
I got the game from Joe Amoah, and it is hard to stay silent
La Porte Du Non-Retour in Benin east of Ghana
Prepare for the afterlife like a pharaoh on trial
Who knows his death sentence is coming, so he proceeds to run wild
There isn't another way to go but north, like the river the Nile
The wall around us falls apart still we continue to smile
Searching my phone rapidly looking for numbers to dial
Hit up my contact out in Bangkok, and disappear for a while

You will fail if you're standing, you better man up
Why, Because worrying faces standing in place all die
Persistence is power, power is money lets rise
Let's rise, let's rise, let's rise, lets thrive

You don't know the origins of my story
Will I survive this final glitch, please somebody tell me
Will my owners keep this contract with me, or will the sell me
Tomorrow is promised to none of us, yes, it's a blessing to breath
Speaking of blessings; Do they meet all of your needs
When do the blessings that we are blessed with, go from blessings to greed
Do you consider it a blessing, for all the things you've received
At times we live a life of nahdahs
A righteous man falls seven times
I am on my sixth respectively never got up
All of the wahdi's are blown up, all of the projects are shot up
Our women are independent, and all of our men are locked up
It is crazy for years these stereotypes have followed us
We took this on the chin while angry, but stayed silent though
I know this sounds insane but if we change, we can make I out
The sky is the limit baby so reconsider your doubt.

You will fail if you're standing, you better man up
Why, Because worrying faces standing in place all die
Persistence is power, power is money lets rise
Let's rise, let's rise, let's rise, lets thrive
You will fail if you're standing, you better man up
Why, Because worrying faces standing in place all die
Persistence is power, power is money lets rise
Let's rise, let's rise, let's rise, let's thrive
