Make It All Right
03:36
|

Ain’t had a dime so I had to go get it
Everyday crime now they call me a menace
It’s a line thru my city & it’s only gettin bigger
No daddy in the house, no mama in the kitchen
But I see pages turning, blocks been burning
Ash give way to the light
So you can keep yo sermons, who you serving
The plan is to make it all right
Aye
Bullets thrown faster than footballs
Now we play 2-hand touch behind prison walls, but why?
We do what we see, everybody pitching packs,
I’m jus living the dream
The OGs tryna teach that it ain’t way it seem
So I’m searching for an answer on an iPhone screen, uhh
Scroll & stop, it’s funny to watch
Til I’m the next viral clip getting chased by the cops, ahhh
Ain’t had a dime so I had to go get it
Everyday crime now they call me a menace
It’s a line thru my city & it’s only gettin bigger
No daddy in the house, no mama in the kitchen
But I see pages turning, blocks been burning
Ash give way to the light
So you can keep yo sermons, who you serving
The plan is to make it all right
Parents was there & I still didn’t care
Tryna find where I fit but the streets ain’t fair
& neither was the system, one misstep now Ima villain, a heathen flooding the city
No misdemeanor
& u know why
Black on both sides
Neva had blue eyes
So trouble I can’t try
A Chi-town train ride
Made to pick sides
The violence be senseless
But answers don’t lie
Ain’t had a dime so I had to go get it
Everyday crime now they call me a menace
It’s a line thru my city & it’s only gettin bigger
No daddy in the house, no mama in the kitchen
But I see pages turning, blocks been burning
Ash give way to the light
So you can keep yo sermons, who you serving
The plan is to make it all right
From Cabrini to Robert
We was stored by the thousands
Black folks, Guinea pigs
For this new public housing (Chi-City!)
Migrated to starvation, a decline up north
War on drugs snatched the men
& crack babies were birthed (Didn’t give a damn)
Englewood to Austin, we took them losses
Cuts to education, our youth hurt often (Every one)
The past exhausting, now we tired of marching
Bring our seeds to the garden
Birth a new harvest (Let’s Grow)
We been thru some hellish days
Slept in fire called it safe
Now we know from who we came
Can’t back out or point the blame
It’s in our hands, we can mold it well
Do more wit Love than gun shells
Gotta lot to build, time is ours
Can’t break us down when we got the power
Ain’t had a dime so I had to go get it
Everyday crime now they call me a menace
It’s a line thru my city & it’s only gettin bigger
No daddy in the house, no mama in the kitchen
But I see pages turning, blocks been burning
Ash give way to the light
So you can keep yo sermons, who you serving
The plan is to make it all right
Ain’t had a dime so I had to go get it
Everyday crime now they call me a menace (They don’t know)
It’s a line thru my city & it’s only gettin bigger (Locked away)
No daddy in the house, no mama in the kitchen (Ain’t nobody here, now)
But I see pages turning, blocks been burning (Aye [life])
Ash give way to the light (Need it all)
So you can keep yo sermons, who you serving (Aye)
The plan is to make it all right (Aye, aye, aye)

I Choose You
04:33
|
|||
You and I were meant to be
But it seems all we do is disagree
We’re stuck somewhere in between
Lovers, friends and enemies
Sometimes loving isn’t easy
You turn your back and leave me
And say that we are through
Sometimes there isn’t a reason
We change just like the seasons
But no matter what you do
I choose you
Even when life is tough
And the road ahead gets rough
If you win or if you lose
I choose you
When the laughter turns to pain
I won’t walk away
You can count
You can count on me to stay
Seems like just the other day
We were young and in love in the month of May
And I can’t help but reminisce
On all the ways we’ve grown since that very first kiss
Sometimes loving isn’t easy
You turn your back and leave me
And say that we are through
Sometimes there isn’t a reason
We change just like the seasons
But no matter what you do
I choose you
Even when life is tough
And the road ahead gets rough
If you win or if you lose
I choose you
When the laughter turns to pain
I won’t walk away
You can count
You can count on me to stay
I choose you
Even when life is tough
And the road ahead gets rough
If you win or if you lose
I choose you
When the laughter turns to pain
I won’t walk away
You can count
You can count on me to stay
I choose you
Even when life is tough
And the road ahead gets rough
If you win or if you lose
I choose you
When the laughter turns to pain
I won’t walk away
You can count
You can count on me to stay
I choose you
Even when life is tough
And the road ahead gets rough
If you win or if you lose

The World Still Needs It
03:26
|

I just really
I really wanna
Go to a place that I Neva been
I know they say it can come with a lot of challenges
But one thing I know for sho
Ima make it beyond all means
I made it, praises to the Most High
Big smiles in my tour lines
Never knew this be my Life
Only in yo city for a minute
They gon miss when I’m gone
Country hoppin like a sport
Neva answer my phone
I see Thousands in attendance
Steady beggin for attention
Wave my hand & blow a kiss
I be they fav toy at Christmas
It’s crazy, but I’m far from foolish
It’s in my heart to pursue it
Cuz I’m in love w/ the music
Don’t know why stars don’t shine as bright when no one’s there to see em
That stage can bring you Life
& still feel like yo hardest season
Don’t die, survive
Cuz we all see your genius
No lie, jus thrive
You kno the world still needs it
Hol’ up now, dropped my crown, it’s wasted
Upside down, cut that sound, I’m faded
Still in spirals, pay me by the hour
I’m entitled by a higher power
I jus need..to see my seed…
Blood & tears for family trees
On the road for weeks, no end
So I spin, jus trapped in this story again
Don’t know why stars don’t shine as bright when no one’s there to see em
That stage can bring you Life
& still feel like yo hardest season
Don’t die, survive
Cuz we all see your genius
No lie, jus thrive
You kno the world still needs it
I de-cided, to keep on trying
Kill my defiance, don’t pray for retirement
Fought w/ the lions & left in designer
I’m one in a million jus let me remind ya
Stacks for tuition, lineage gon be brilliant
Whole fam ascending
ownership for da chil’ren
Ebbs & flows is how it goes
But now that I kno
I’m worth my weight in gold
Don’t know why stars don’t shine as bright when no one’s there to see em
That stage can bring you Life
& still feel like yo hardest season
Don’t die, survive
Cuz we all see your genius
No lie, jus thrive
You kno the world still needs it
A Life..fulfilled
Don’t crash w/ yo hands on the wheel
Choices
plague the mind,
Jus breathe, take ya time
I control my melody-made path
Sirens signaling home
I made it
I’m thankful
I’m free
Don’t know why stars don’t shine as bright when no one’s there to see em
That stage can bring you Life
& still feel like yo hardest season
Don’t die, survive
Cuz we all see your genius
No lie, jus thrive
You kno the world still needs it

Take The Blame
03:38
|
|||
Yeah, yeah it’s time to go
You’re always working late that’s a lie fo sho
I never seen your friends come inside our home
But then you make some excuse
Or it’s I don’t know
I won’t be a victim of your mind control
Used to believe your lies tryin to find some hope
But deep inside I’ve been tryin to cope
Because our babies need their momma
So I’m on the ropes, yeah
I feel like something’s changed
Your love ain’t come the same
There’s something really strange going on round here (round here)
Yet I take all the blame
When I confront your ways
You’re struggling to explain
The love is gone it’s so clear (so clear)
I looked into your eyes
Let your mouth run your consumed with lies
Focused on the kids there’s no you and I
Girl your so damn entitled yet your truly blind
Cause you’d rather cheat thru my overtime
With no dinner for the babies how I choose this kind
Guess I was fooled
And we ain’t got no room to climb
So now it’s over
And I ain’t lettin you decide, yeah (wow)
No I ain’t hearing nothin
Don’t need you for your lovin
It ain’t up for discussion girl
I’m done with all your games
I, I feel like something’s changed
Your love ain’t come the same
There’s something really strange
Going on round here (round here)
Yet I take all the blame
When I confront your ways
You’re struggling to explain
The love is gone it’s so clear (so clear)
(Scat)
You messed around
You did me wrong
Don’t beg for nothin, I’m moving on
I tried to stay, but you were gone
So what’s the point girl the world is yours
You messed around
You did me wrong
Don’t beg for nothin, I’m moving on
I tried to stay, but you were gone
And I won’t take this anymore
I, I feel like something’s changed
Your love ain’t come the same
There’s something really strange
Going on round here (round here)
Yet I take all the blame
When I confront your ways
You’re struggling to explain
The love is gone it’s so clear (so clear)
You messed around
You did me wrong
Don’t beg for nothin, I’m moving on
I tried to stay, but you were gone
So what’s the point girl the world is yours
You messed around
You did me wrong
Don’t beg for nothin, I’m moving on
I tried to stay, but you were gone
And I won’t take this anymore
I, I feel like something’s changed
Your love ain’t come the same
There’s something really strange
Going on round here (round here)
Yet I take all the blame
When I confront your ways
You’re struggling to explain
The love is gone it’s so clear

Wake Up In Your Dreams
03:21
|

I don’t wanna look back on my life
on my life
Wondering
Wondering
I don’t wanna look back on my life
Wondering
Wondering
Wondering what could have
I don’t wanna look back on my life
Wondering what could have been
Don’t you give up till you wake up in your dreams
Don’t you give up now
Don’t you give up till you wake up in your dreams
Don’t you give up now
People told me
I should think about
Doing something else with my life
And I knew they meant well
So I didn’t tell them what to do with their advice
It’s hard enough
When you’re the only one with the vision
Tryin’ to make the right decisions
And the pressure
Makes you want to call it quits
But I tell myself this
Don’t you give up till you wake up in your dreams
Don’t you give up now
Don’t you give up till you wake up in your dreams
Don’t you give up now
It’s been a tough road
And a long time coming
Faced hills and valleys
But I can’t stop runnin’
I just might be one step away from it all
From it all
Cause dreams are tough
When you’re the only one with the vision
Tryin’ to make the right decisions
And the pressure
Makes you want to call it quits
But I tell myself this
Don’t you give up till you wake up in your dreams
Don’t you give up now
Don’t you give up till you wake up in your dreams
Don’t you give up no
Don’t you give up till you wake up in your dreams
Don’t you give up now
Don’t you give up till you wake up in your dreams
Don’t you give up no
I don’t wanna look back on my life
Wondering what could have been
So every time I get knocked down
I’m gonna get back up again
Don’t you give up till you wake up in your dreams
Don’t you give up no, no, no
Don’t you give up till you wake up in your dreams
Don’t you give up no, no
Don’t you give up till you wake up in your dreams
Don’t you give up no
Don’t you give up till you wake up in your dreams
Don’t you give up no
I don’t wanna look back on my life
on my life
Wondering
Wondering
I don’t wanna look back on my life
Wondering
Wondering
Wondering what could have
I don’t wanna look back on my life
Wondering what could have been
