lyrics

Sometimes I wanna
I won't complain
I do my thing
I got some fans, they know my name
I stick this ink right in my heart, I show my veins
Artistry in my arteries soothe pains I overcame
Never rank the sun below the rain
Claim that mountaintop as low terrain
Close the gap and grow the gains
Hold your own, control your weight
Don't be 'fraid to ask for help if your shoulders strain
Yo, you great
So go be great
Leave them distractions to the side
Keep your focus straight
Don't let detractors shake your vibe with their lowly hate
And when you fail know that this try wasn't the only way
No phony days
Keep it real with yourself, stay critical
Recognize the substance of your soul ain't visual
Until you put in work
Get your hands in the dirt
And be fruitful on the earth
Self determinate your worth
Cuz you're perfect

Go on and make a move
All the way through
Go on and make a move
All the way, yeah
Go on and make a move
All the way through
Go on and make a move
All the way, yeah

I struggle with religion
Them books on a shelf
Need something to believe in
I look to myself
I'm not an atheist
More like a maybe-ist
Perhaps a lack of sacredness explains the craziness
That people do
Some don't overstand who they're equal to
I think the truth of God resides inside of me and you
Divine knowledge lays behind your eyes
Peek-a-boo
See
Your smile is like angelic light leakin' through
That's my perspective
But for the record
You got traditions that you hold to?
I do respect it
I'll never challenge someone's faith
I don't know what they faced
Or who showed up to lift them higher when they prayed to who they praise
In any case, I hope for love to conquer hate
It's a waste when negativity's allowed to propagate
Some indoctrinate the children to believe others are lesser
I speak on brighter days, tryna relieve some of the pressure

Go on and make a move
All the way through
Go on and make a move
All the way, yeah
Go on and make a move
All the way through
Go on and make a move
All the way, yeah

Go on and make a move
All the way through
Go on and make a move
All the way, yeah
Go on and make a move
All the way through
Go on and make a move
All the way, yeah
