lyrics

Believe
Never have I showed ya a mode of my cold aromas that raises like a corona in a bar of winning soldiers,
Meaning I'm a warrior fighting you barely noticed,
Cuz I worked back in the corner of the class as I loaded,
erasers into a mechanical pencil and knowing,
That I'm either gone be fly or outdated like Motorolas,
Hold up,
Cuz I don't think you get it, I been writing poems spitting,
My products for a good minute,
And Still it, hasn't payed Giap regardless I still live it,
Love it, touch it, give a little substance.
So whoever listens to it could be blessed with what I started.
But honestly I don't see myself being the best to market,
Either way I'm precious as the memoirs of a Martyr,
Cuz the path that I brought up is made for those forgotten,
This is for the people with self fulfilled goals,
This is for those preparing to leave home,
And that's,

Hook:
Tell me what I should, Be believing,
When I stand with, opposition,
Do you believe in, (right now, right now, right now, right now),
Tell me should I stand,
Tell me should I crawl,
Whichever way I,
Will prevail all,
Do you believe in (right now, right now, right now, right now)

Never thought I'd get a ten k scholarship, for my,
Drawing talent, kept it raw and balanced with right time effort energy money and practice,
That is, the essence of what a goal is, they can't manage,
to shape it, make it. Something that will take em across the world breaking records never thought of slaying,
Thinking on the days momma made me read,
So I wouldn't grow illiterate, and hidden from my dreams,
The same dreams teachers use to crush for their pleasure,
Feeding me lies and doubts beyond measure,
Hey mr tu, you remember me right,
I remember you telling me all that I can't do,
That I'm not a good student and I can't rap oh,
Now I'm bout to be more successful than you,
That just shows, despite superiority,
You still havethe right to question your authority,

Tell me what I should, Be believing,
When I stand with, opposition,
Do you believe in, (right now, right now, right now, right now),
Tell me should I stand,
Tell me should I crawl,
Whichever way I,
Will prevail all,
Do you believe in (right now, right now, right now, right now)

Solitary confined, inside of my own self,
it's crazy how I'm leaving behind all I've known,
And tryin to get closure with homies just don't help, cuz the people that I'm close with faked and ain't told,
Noone comprehended all the work I put in,
To make the rhymes perfecto as I rip em from the soul,
arrange them in an order as I melt them in the mold,
Encrypting every line in a binary code,
No, not the average man understands,
Because you see me from the outside looking in,
Then, you want the right to judge me,
Make fun of me, love me or hate me,
You still can't fuck with me,
I remained abstinent, passive with, the honoring gift, of lyrical bliss, I went, and applied my talents to the world I'm in,
Spending years crafting myself to be who I am,
And,

Tell me what I should, Be believing,
When I stand with, opposition,
Do you believe in, (right now, right now, right now, right now),
Tell me should I stand,
Tell me should I crawl,
Whichever way I,
Will prevail all,
Do you believe in (right now, right now, right now, right now)
