Preferred Band/Artist: AKA
Hook:
We are (x4)
No, no, no, no, we not the same
Verse 1:
I live it
You hype it
Born with it
You didn't explore it
I dream in bars
You dream of cars
I drive crowds crazy
Your pipe dreams drive you crazy
Take this track as a lift
An elevation of your thoughts
Taking you higher 'cause I'm way better than dope
Stop rolling with peeps who only care about rolling a pope
No offense to my Catholics
White smoke from their rizzla does signal fire
No harm intended, no chance of me coming under fire
Got you bobbing and bumping to this track like you on hydraulics
Chorus:
Took a chance, followed my thoughts --spoke my mind, practiced and perfected my craft
Because I knew I was born with it
We are all talented (just not in the same fields) what's your excuse?
Just follow your dreams like I did mine
Hook:
We are (x4)
No, no, no, no, we not the same
Verse 2:
It's a rap doctrine, something to live by
You can't afford to be left behind, not even on a lay-bye
Stop holding yourself back
Your past is in the past, it can't hold you back
Take the first step towards the victory lap
Make your move, despite all the negatives; even those who yap
Once you make it, they will be the first to cheer and clap
To haters, your success will be like a slap
Aaah-chu that really hurts
No need to brag
Consistency shouldn't be a drag
It's not a race, but you don't wanna end up back in your rags
Focus on your finances, always check that price tag
Invest baller and stop living out of a bag
Gotta look proper, jeans ain't gotta sag
Don't even think about a du-rag
Chorus:
Took a chance, followed my thoughts --spoke my mind, practiced and perfected my craft
Because I knew I was born with it
We are all talented (just not in the same fields) what's your excuse?
Just follow your dreams like I did mine
Hook:
We are (x4)
No, no, no, no, we not the same
Outro: (speaking)
Don't do it because your friend is doing it! Don't do it because it seems easy.
Don't do it because it's going to be easy money. Don't do it because it's popular
Do it because you are passionate about it. Do it because you love it, you enjoy it and have time for it.
Don't waste your time doing something which bores you or something you are forced to do.
Most of all: don't do crime! Stay in school and get a higher qualification.
Remember: we are not all meant to be entertainers (if you are bright in books, excel in your education)
