M.anifest
The Amazing
[Intro: Amai Tendai]
Gosh you must have been 15 or so and you rammed in, you rammed your father's brand new car into the garage in the pretext of listening to music Tendai
Tsk Tsk Tsk

[Verse 1: M.anifest]
They say dress how you want to be addressed
I'm barely impressed rarely at my address
Like cancer in the chest, I'm trying to keep abreast
Dealt with disappointments, turned Nos to Yes
Pros and cons of being a pro amongst amateurs
Dumb it down, Are you kidding when I'm so mature?
Am I connoisseur? Am I fan?
Son of man, they going overboard with the underhand
Compliments, oh boy you so full of it
Fuck what you heard, I return serve I'm Djokovic
This is the how-to-be-great starter kit
Tell the pricks I'm a misfit they can kick bricks
My mind a gold mine, galamsey i'm mining
So much pressure can make a ten diamond
So Tehn stay zen and don't bend
To gain success you have to lose a few friends
I'm on form cause I don't conform to the BS
Wrote it in a letter and added a little PS
Jesus, the irony of using bars to free us
Lost my mind, guess it's finders keepers
If Kilimanjaro, can kill a man sorrows
Then I'm booking a flight to Tanzania tomorrow
I feel like Bob Marley when he dropped in Harare
Why back of the bus it when you could drive a 'Rari?
[Bridge: Tehn Diamond]
Welcome to the amazing
To the amazing
It's the greatest show on earth and if you watching and it's worth it
Welcome to the amazing
To the amazing
It's the greatest show on earth and if you watching and it's worth it

[Chorus: Davina]
In all you do, all you see
In all you can be, be amazing
Don't let no one tell you, you can't be

[Verse 2: Tehn Diamond]
I just want be the best ever, amazing while I'm at it too
That will never happen unless I change my attitude
Gravitate to people who care and show him some gratitude
Better yet show him the world and what it can promise you
Be the beacon to people that speak and seek truth
Party hard, work harder and then hardest
Go far, then farther and yes farthest
Seen as how only I'm getting out what I put in this
Every letter is laced with love
Every sentence wears the essence of the heavens above
Every part of my prose has been peppered with passion and hope
So that even the blind see what the deaf don't know
So need I remind thee that it ain't your year?
Not now, not yet, not ever you hear?
Hate to say it but I said it so it's crystal clear
If you came to kill the king aim your pistol here
'Cause King Pinn passed and that's far from fair
But I'm here H-town can't you tell that I care
Or would you only care if I came from the Americas draped in a blood diamond mind when I'm heaven's sent
Why is it not enough that I stand to lose everything?
Respect of the people that made me to raise me up
Like the fist of freedom that I'd be fighting for
I no longer pause for thought: I just write more
Talent does what it can, genius does what it must
With this mic in my hand I got to aim to adjust
Perceptions embedded in heads from my continent
Hip-hop came from abroad but we honor it
In fact I used to be want to be Hov until I found me
Used to look down on my own until I found peace
Hidden in the lines of my life, in the eyes of the few that I call peers, few in it for life
Now ? the lights that shine bright but burn easy
It's real life, most nights it ain't easy
But believe me we in it for the long run
Try to picture Popeye post spinach we strong son
And that's fact, fuck fiction
Pardon my French but that's that: my religion
Is keeping it real for all my real folk listening
Spinning with pedigree instead of just pissing in
Bringing you steady silence instead of just shitting in
Showing you my life and not the mirage
Painting you pristine pictures and bringing you the art
Showing you the hidden pieces of who you are
You're amazing
[Bridge: Tehn Diamond]
Welcome to the amazing
To the amazing
It's the greatest show on earth and if you watching and it's worth it
Welcome to the amazing
To the amazing
It's the greatest show on earth and if you watching and it's worth it

[Chorus]
In all you do, all you see
In all you can be, be amazing
Don't let no one tell you, you can't be
