(Verse 1)
I'm sitting here thinking 'bout my biggest fan
Wondering where he'll go, how far he'll expand
I see him in the crowd, he's always front and center
Been with me since day one, my number one mentor
I hope he knows I appreciate him more than he knows
Without him, I wouldn't be where I am, that's just how it goes
He's been there through the highs and the lows
And I know he'll go far, that's just how it goes
I wonder where he's hеaded, what he wants to achievе
I hope he knows he can do anything, he can be who he wants to be
I know he'll go far, he's got the drive and passion
I just hope he remembers me, when he's living in a mansion
I know he's got the talent, the potential to be great
I just hope he doesn't let anyone tell him what's his fate
(Verse 2)
I see him in the crowd, singing every word
He's been with me through everything, that's why he deserves
To go far in life, to achieve all his dreams
I hope he knows that nothing is as impossible as it seems
I wonder where he'll go, what he'll do with his life
I hope he knows that he's capable of anything, he can reach any height
I'm grateful for him, he's been with me from the start
I just hope he knows that he'll always have a place in my heart
I know he's got the talent, the potential to be great
I just hope he doesn't let anyone tell him what's his fate
I see him in the crowd, he's always front and center
Been with me since day one, he my number one mentor
(Outro)
They know that everyday when I’m breathing, it’s for us to go farther. You know? Every time I speak, I wan’t the truth to come out. You know what I’m saying? Every time I speak, I wanna shiver. You know? I don’t want them to be like- they know what I’m gonna say cause it’s polite. They know what I’m gonna say. And even if I get in trouble. You know what I’m saying? That- ain’t that what we supposed to do? I’m not saying I’m gonna rule the world or I’m gonna change the world. But I guarantee that I will spark the brain that will change the world. And, that’s our job- is to spark somebody else watching us. We might not be the ones, but let’s not be selfish. And, because we’re not gonna change the world, let’s not talk about how we should change it. I don’t know how to change it. But, I know if I keep talking about how dirty it is out here, somebody gonna clean it up
He told the God. He said, “When you wanna succeed as bad you wanna breathe, then you’ll be successful.”. I don’t know how many of ya’ll got asthma in here today, but if you ever had an asthma attack before- you short of breath, that’s on me, shortness of breath. You wheezing- *wheezes*. The only thing you trying to do is get some air. You don’t care about no basketball game. You don’t care what’s on TV. You don’t care about nobody calling you. You don’t care about a party. The only thing you care about when you trying to breathe is to get some fresh air. That’s it. And when you get to the point where all you want to do is be successful as bad as you want to breathe, then you’ll be successful. And I’m here to tell you, number 1, that most of you say you wanna be successful, but you don’t want it bad. You just kinda want it. You don’t want it badder than you want a party. You don’t want it as much as you wanna be cool. Most of you don’t want success as much as you wanna sleep. Some of you love sleep more than you love success. And I’m here to tell you today, if you’re going to be successful, you’ve gotta be willing to give up sleep. You gotta be willing to work off of three hours of sleep, two hours. If you really wanna be successful, some days, you gonna have to stay up three days in a row. Because if you go to sleep, you might miss the opportunity to be successful. That’s how bad you gotta want it. You gotta go days without- listen to me. You gotta wanna be successful so bad that you forget to eat
You grew up good and wonderful. It was great just- watching every day was like a privilege. Then the time come for you to be your own man, and take on the world, and you did. But somewhere along the line, you changed. You stopped being you. You let people stick a finger in your face and tell you you’re no good. And when things got hard, you started looking for something to blame. Like a big shadow. Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But, it ain’t about how hard you hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done. Now, if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth. But, you gotta be willing to take the hits
