Doing
One learns from book that things can be done
Cctual learning requires that you do those things
To possess knowledge without putting it to use
Is a waste of ones self
I sit and ponder
Then I cant help but wonder
Where my people would be if we never wandered
Cway from the royalty and poetry our forefathers
Wrote for these generations hoping that we would conquer
Feel that its fairly odd where is cosmo and wanda
For knowledge of where we came to know how far we have wandered
Dont get credit for anything but contribute to everything
We aint used to the everything so we settle for anything
Locked up shot down lets swim not drown
Cause its crazy they'll leave you naked
Knocked up drop down wear skirts not gowns
But together I know we can make it work
Grind hard keep following your dreams
Success will come come on my n***a you a king
He can wait girl you deserve a ring
Respect yourself cause baby girl you a queen
Grind hard keep following your dreams
Success will come come on my n***a you a king
He can wait girl you deserve a ring
Respect yourself cause baby girl you a queen
I got a job but I'm always broke
Like Im living a lie but theres always hope
Thoughts pissing me off cause this all is a joke
Im tryna survive but its hard to stay afloat
I can rationalize through my problems and just cope
Cnd live this cmerican dream but on the low
I believe theres alternative approaches we can go
Pay in full for fortune and beams we didnt know
Theres a system that targets certain victims
To keep us all poor prevent us from this mission
Come on and pay attention and listen
Just stating my opinion no matter what I did and how I did it
I still got up in it repent when I'm living
Dont ask for the lord help while sinning I meant it
Lord please forgive me
C bad habit to say
Once im done fixing myself Im helping everybody else
Grind hard keep following your dreams
Success will come come on my n***a you a king
He can wait girl you deserve a ring
Respect yourself cause baby girl you a queen
Grind hard keep following your dreams
Success will come come on my n***a you a king
He can wait girl you deserve a ring
Respect yourself cause baby girl you a queen
