Go out and get it while you can
I hope you realize it's a short lifespan
Soon I think you'll understand it's in your hands
At what point do you just chance it
'Cause you can't always play it by the book, note that
To take a risk, well, sometimes that is just mad
Listen real close
To yourself because nobody knows
Watch it evoke
Memories that lead you to home
Life it takes a toll
But even failure can lead us to grow
Never on your own
Keep on treading to places unknown
Go out and get it while you can
I hope you realize it's a short lifespan
Soon I think you'll understand it's in your hands
And when it feels like a crossroad
Which direction you should go
When you can't find your own ground
And the fear to be alone
Listen real close
To yourself because nobody knows
Watch it evoke
Memories that lead you to home
Life it takes a toll
But even failure can lead us to grow
Never on your own
Keep on treading to places unknown
Sometimes life fi rock ya boat
Don't let ego stunt ya growth
Risk it all or lose the chance
Yes it hard fi beat the odds
Nuh make fear cut yuh throat
Time will pass you by in aloof
In these times you haffi cope, no, no, no
Tell every youth weh born inna di ghetto
Work hard fi yuh dreams
Nuh make nuh body mash it up
Have yuh talent and ability
Nuh badda give it up
Only you can lift it up
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Listen real close
To yourself because nobody knows
Watch it evoke
Memories that lead you to home
Life it takes a toll
But even failure can lead us to grow
Never on your own
Keep on treading to places unknown
