Ya Minko
The Stance
[Intro - Ya Minko]
You gotta do what you gotta do
Someone's gonna have to do something...

[Hook - Ya Minko]
I stayed up for this... Hmm
Barely even sleep. You won't make it if I don't, so I stay up for both of us... Yeah
I finally understand, ain't a thing gonna change
Till I stand up and make it work

(I will, I will, I will...
Right now, right now)
Watch me stand up and make it work
(I will, I will, I will...
Right now, right now, right now...)

[Verse 1 - Ya Minko]
I just saw you go through the worst
Couldn't do shit, now I fully understand that the money is a must
Being broke is not an option
Nothing happens on its own, gotta make it happen

Gotta plan and make sure every plan falls through
Make sure your people understand your core value
Cause ain't nobody worried 'bout you, but you
& many situations don't need to go through a part two

& fucking feels good, goddamn it feels good!
But like most things that do
Shit is gonna make you forget that your rent is due
But this world will not forget you, somehow you'll pay in full!

& being a good dude, just won't do you much good
'less in the middle of it all, you make sure your ass is good
Yeah make sure your shit is straight, & get your piece of the cake
Can't feed nobody, when you struggling yourself!

[Hook - Ya Minko]

Till I stand up and make it work

(I will, I will, I will...
Right now, right now)
Watch me stand up and make it work
(I will, I will, I will...
Right now, right now, right now...)

[Bridge - Ya Minko]
I know what I gotta do right now
I know what I gotta do right now...
Get smart, get my hustle on. (x2)

I know what I gotta do right now
I know what I gotta do right now...
Get smart, get my hustle on
Reach that upper echelon

[Verse 2 - Ya Minko]
Life is a chess board. Every move could make you or kill you
It ain't done until your soul leaves you
It's still on as long as you can feel the hits
When the real shit hit...

You'll see who really means what
See who really got your back and really means that
See if you can really handle whatever is thrown at you
See if you finna survive or crawl back while they're watching you

I did both proud of some, could've done better
I broke the rules and this shit is not a game brother
I did my best, I did my worst, I saw the outcome
It always comes down, to how much you got done

The bad blood is fearsome, and the devil watches often
So you better believe he's present, and waiting for you to get some
Better watch your step, and learn to levitate when shit gets shaky
I already know who got me, I can't let nobody down
I stayed up for this...

Right now, right now, right now...)

[Bridge - Ya Minko]
I know what I gotta do right now
I know what I gotta do right now...

I know what I gotta do right now
I know what I gotta do right now...
Get smart, get my hustle on
Reach that upper echelon
