You you can
You you you can
You you you can
You you you can
I remember when everything was so carefree
Look into my future with 20 20 so clearly
I had my plans mapped out
Trying to tell me
I wasn't destined for greatness was aimless
Because I lacked doubt
I had to act out everything
I saw for myself
I had the faith and I believed like there was nobody else
Willing to back me up and willing to invest in me
My destiny was trying to do the best for me
And I could never rest although they test
And yeah they question me
But I would just confess to me
I had a different recipe
I'm focusing excessively
But coming up against trials and tribulations
And getting judged upon somebody else's limitations
And in consideration of all the temptations
And all the frustrations
Had to keep my motivation
That doesn't mean I've never shed a tear
Or had the feeling that the people
That I love the most are never there
I've always heard people tell me life wasn't easy
From family that betray you
And friends that can play you greezy
From partners you used to love now
The sight of them make you queasy
If I came back from the future and told me
I wouldn't believe me
I'm two score and I've seen so much
But thank God he let me breathe so much
So I can be so much and from the bottom of my heart
Yeah I know it ain't that easy
But I gotta tell you anyway
You can win
As long as you keep your head to the sky
You can win
As long as you keep your head to the sky
Yeah I get it
When you ain't getting the credit for the merits
And they edit
'Cause you don't fit they aesthetics yo'
Yeah I see it but I almost guarantee it
You can overcome these obstacles
When you reach and believe it yo'
Yeah I heard it
They saying you don't deserve it
'Cause they judge you like they perfect
But don't make that be the verdict yo'
Yeah I know it
But I'm telling you
You owe it to yourself to go
And show the world your wealth
Ain't talking money yo' huh
And it's an everyday struggle
Where you trying to build a picture
But some pieces of the puzzle are missing
And every time you try and speak
They try and muzzle
Won't listen it's like a competition
That you trying to win
Sometimes it seems impossible
But searching deep within for a level of resilience
To take it on the chin
So whether you a long way from home
Or suffering something you don't condone
Or facing something unknown
Or wanna be around somebody
But you always alone
Or if you're contemplating giving up
Or leaving the zone
The only thing that I can say is what I told you before
And just because it's from the heart
I'm gonna say it once more
I know that you've seen so much
But you so blessed to get to breathe so much
So you can be so much and from my very inner core
Yeah I know that it ain't easy
But I gotta tell you anyways
You can win
As long as you keep your head to the sky
Oooh you can win
You can win ye eh ah
As long as you keep
Your head to the sky
You can win
You can win
You can win as long as you keep
As long as you keep
Your head to the sky
Your head to the sky
You can win you can win
As long as you keep your head to the sky
Your head to the sky
I know that you've seen so much
But you so blessed to get to breathe so much
So you can see
So much and from my very inner core
Yeah I know that it ain't easy
But I gotta tell you anyway
I know that you've seen so much
But you so blessed to get to breathe so much
So you can be so much
Oh oh you can win
As long as you keep your head to the sky
