Yeah, step outside for a second. Take a deep breath. Look around the neighborhood, see everybody moving, trying to make a way out of plain sight. We all got a story to tell, but today, we're talking about the growth. Let's get into it. (real talk)
I wake up before the sun even thinks about rising (yeah)
Looking at the block with a brand new set of eyes in
My head, thinking 'bout the choices that we making daily
Working two jobs just to make sure that the light bill paid, see
We used to stress over every single dollar and dime
Now we spending energy on building up our mind (so Majestic)
I remember twenty-two days when the winter was cold
We held each other up when the story got told
Eight streets deep, everybody trying to make a way
Finding light in the middle of a cloudy grey day
I see my neighbor working hard, sweeping off his porch (real talk)
Passing down the wisdom like he handing off a torch
We ain't defined by the struggle or the pain in the street
We defined by the heart beat pushing through defeat
Seven days a week we out here moving with grace
Putting smile on the family faces in this place (boss)
We rising up through every storm that comes our way
Finding clear blue skies in the middle of the grey
With every single step we take, we clear the path
Building up a future that is built to last
We rising up, yeah, holding on tight
Walking in the truth and moving in the light
Look at the youth on the corner with their notebooks open (yeah)
Writing down dreams instead of just sitting and hoping
They got the vision now, clear as a crystal glass
Learning from the past so the mistakes don't last
I talk to my sister, she just started up her shop
Selling homemade goods, ain't no way she gonna stop
It took six long months to get the license in hand (so Majestic)
Now she standing on her ground, making proper demands
We building ownership, piece by piece, block by block
No more waiting on a hand out, no more watching the clock
Three generations sitting down at the dinner table
Sharing all the blessings, proving that we able
To turn a little bit of hope into a whole lot of power
Growing like a flower in the final hour
Every single word spoken carries weight and pride (real talk)
Nothing left to cover up, nothing left to hide
We rising up through every storm that comes our way
Finding clear blue skies in the middle of the grey
With every single step we take, we clear the path
Building up a future that is built to last
We rising up, yeah, holding on tight
Walking in the truth and moving in the light
Sometimes you gotta stop and look how far you came
Forget about the noise and forget about the blame
Change starts inside before it shows on the outside (yeah)
When you walk with purpose, ain't no place to hide your pride
It's a collective motion, every brother, every sister
Every time the wind blows, we just stand stronger through the blizzard (boss)
Fifty doors closed but the fifty-first opened up
Filling up the ocean from an empty little cup
I see the elders on the bench sharing old-school wisdom
Showing us the way to navigate through the system (so Majestic)
We trading knowledge now, elevating every single mind
Leaving every single piece of negativity behind
Four corners of the city feeling unified tonight
We putting down the heavy loads and stepping into light
I look my brother in the eyes, say""we made it through""
Every single promise that we made, we kept it true
No more running in circles, we got a destination
Building up the foundation for the whole generation (boss)
Ten out of ten, we giving all that we got
Turning every cold corner into a warm spot
Keep your head held high, let the motivation speak (real talk)
Power in the voice for the weary and the weak
We rising up through every storm that comes our way
Finding clear blue skies in the middle of the grey
With every single step we take, we clear the path
Building up a future that is built to last
We rising up, yeah, holding on tight
Walking in the truth and moving in the light
And that's real talk. Every step forward counts, no matter how small it looks to somebody else. Keep building, keep striving, and keep holding each other up. Peace and love to everybody out there doing the work. (real talk)
