[00:36.56]Don't ever let em doubt you
[00:40.31]You're making your dreams come true
[00:44.14]I've been told that your passion's not conventional
[00:46.08]Following dreams that are pre deemed as trash
[00:48.38]But if they only seen half of the faces that I've encountered
[00:50.55]They would testify in one voice that words is power
[00:53.95]And I mean that from the bottom of my soul
[00:56.21]Soldiers that I've known who reminisce on being home
[00:58.55]And the music is my method of a countdown or direction
[01:02.04]Lessons that I've learned that I pre-packed on a record
[01:04.44]So I slow down my tempo clarify my metaphors
[01:07.08]Make light of my window wage right to declare a war
[01:10.10]Against the evils that have pre-screened the passionate
[01:12.77]In my season I've re-teamed with my catalyst
[01:14.90]Re-dreamed of an action list - so the action is
[01:17.42]Exhale any past minor falls they were practices
[01:20.04]And nows the real deal cause this is prime time
[01:22.47]So chuck your hands up dance and baby let the lights shine
[01:24.26]Hold your head high You will survive
[01:28.62]Don't let em doubt you
[01:32.24]There's nothing you can't do
[01:34.94]I believe we'll succeed
[01:38.40]Don't ever let em doubt you
[01:42.16]You're making your dreams come true
[01:45.86]I never said that I was the best at really anything
[01:47.98]And my intentions - well that speaks for itself
[01:50.32]See I fell so many times that I remember slow motion
[01:52.94]What its like to have the chance to recapture all of my dreams again
[01:55.47]I guess its why that I speak easily seize a pen
[01:58.22]Breathe freely when beats weave at a key event
[02:00.94]And that's just part of my culture my connotation
[02:03.14]My respect for different genres that empowers generations of artists
that were taught to be quiet but never thought of it
[02:08.46]And Singers rap actors or dancers were never targeted
[02:11.12]And this might fly over the heads of those who missed it
[02:13.39]But for years this platform that we have was non existent
[02:16.31]Much love to Anna May Wong and those who did it
[02:18.85]Of course Bruce who shattered the rules of a leading actor
[02:21.16]And now its after - the chapters now upon us
[02:23.66]Believe in yourself and there is nothing you can't accomplish
[02:25.18]Hold your head high
[02:27.52]You will survive
[02:29.83]Don't let em doubt you
[02:33.60]There's nothing you can't do
[02:36.26]I believe we'll succeed
[02:39.63]Don't ever let em doubt you
[02:43.74]You're making your dreams come true
[02:47.16]I used to worry bout my image when I got personal
[02:49.41]Making sure my flows were dope in every syllable
[02:52.08]And I was taught that as a rapper I was limited
[02:54.19]To the topics I could speak on - cash girls or a mix of both
[02:57.10]And it was crazy that It didn't come to me sooner
[02:59.58]That our craft was being barely represented
[03:02.22]And so I vented through any tracklist like I needed it
[03:04.53]If I can't change the game then I will sleep in it
[03:07.56]And I will write from sunrise until the evening
[03:09.87]In hopes that my words could touch another soul
[03:12.07]And maybe that's you sitting by the negatives
[03:14.76]A bunch of negativity and questions bout your relevance
[03:17.27]I'm here to tell you that you're beautiful and talented
[03:19.71]And don't call it quits just cause it ain't happen yet
[03:22.58]A million 'likes' doesn't tell me who you are
[03:24.86]
[03:26.91]When you're hurt and lost don't lose your way
[03:31.78]Use the hope to wash the pain away yeah
[03:36.96]Theres a promise of a better day its okay
[03:43.69]The best things are worth the wait
[03:47.41]Hold your head high You will survive
