[Verse 1]
Can't learn karate off a page
Put the book away, never look away
Spooks don't be hardly where i stay
I’ll never play it safe, never go astray
Me, i'm probably hopping in the fray
Take a leap of faith, look me in the face
If it's hard to copy what i say
Rock it anyway, Rock Me Amadeus
Irony, i'm never going back as well as never gonna front
I got the energy to do it more than once
Even my enemies be doing what i want
Morning when i rise, not 'cause i gots ta
Must be something that i really wanna do
Like maybe hitting streets so i could gather troops
That's why you never catch me wit a attitude
[Chorus]
No need to get surprised when it all pops
‘Cause I could do anything
Regardless of the prize money or props
I just do me
No need to even try to put me in a box
‘Cause I could do anything
Out in an environment
Where I’m boxing just to be
[Verse 2]
Things weren't meant to stay the same
Love it when it snows, love it when it rains
I’m only here to celebrate
Not to educate, not to entertain
Heroes may have rose up from the grave
A rose is still a rose by any other name
Life give you lemons everyday
Get them lemons ate, or make some lemonade
Or make some other thing that you could make with lemons
Before i die i wanna go to heaven
Before i die i wanna visit Lennon
When i die it won't be like a lemming
I been building steady independent
In the building but i'm just a tenant
Less concerned with being in the press than being in the present
[Chorus]
No need to get surprised when it all pops
‘Cause I could do anything
Regardless of the prize money or props
I just do me
No need to even try to put me in a box
‘Cause I could do anything
Out in an environment
Where I’m boxing just to be
[Verse 3]
Any time i gave my word
That's the realest thing you ever heard
Thanks and praises inter-merge
All that other stuff is for the birds
I came up on the earth
Where everything is graded on a curve
Some are blessed and some are cursed
Very interesting what occurs
And i don't mean to be curt
But my time counts
You won't find whines, you won't find pouts
Homey time flies, there's time outs
Right about now
I’m feeling caged in waiting for occasion to catch wreck
Cue the vaccines and the dragnet
And the track-beam and the magnet
[Chorus]
No need to get surprised when it all pops
‘Cause I could do anything
Regardless of the prize money or props
I just do me
No need to even try to put me in a box
‘Cause I could do anything
Out in an environment
Where I’m boxing just to be
[Chorus]
No need to get surprised when it all pops
‘Cause I could do anything
Regardless of the prize money or props
I just do me
No need to even try to put me in a box
‘Cause I could do anything
Out in an environment
Where I’m boxing just to be
