b.keyz - self-ambition lyrics
[verse 1]
mama told me never back down to a challenge
steady tryna walk a tightrope with no balance
despite everybody that’s tellin’ me to stop
i’ma keep walkin’ until my feet get calloused
me, i’m from a city that ain’t never been to church
girls stuck to the script, end up lookin’ like cursive
curvy as a model, all the brothers wanna flirt with
hittin’ up a club with a bottle in they purses
brothers growin’ up not knowing where they’re headed
stuck on gettin’ money, doin’ anything to get it
gettin’ high, rollin’ up a blunt, somethin’ proper
i wish hе knew he coulda been a lawyer or a doctor
cops stеady lookin’ for another one to lock up
and if he had the choice, he would lock the whole block up
work for what you want, don’t stop ’til they pay you
and always stay grounded so n0body can sway you
[chorus]
no matter where you come from or where you tryna go
there’s never one path, there’s more than one road
keep your eyes on the prize and your feet on the floor
keep shinin’ that light ’til they see you glow
no matter where you come from or where you tryna go
there’s never one path, there’s more than one road
keep your eyes on the prize and your feet on the floor
keep shinin’ that light ’til they see you glow
[verse 2]
my father told me never back down to a coward
do whatever you want, you’re the one with the power
many people fold when they’re faced with the pressure
despite all my doubts and fears, i’ll never cower
always show pride in anything that you accomplish
life is a journey, don’t forget to bring your compass
never conform, i’ll live my life like a rebel
sick of playin’ “deal or no deal” with the devil
gettin’ your profession to perfect takes practice
and don’t stop pushin’ yourself until it’s mastered
workin’ with a machine, just bangin’ out classics
look at the tracklist and dare anyone to match it
life is full of mess+ups, outtakes, and bloopers
but you’re the only one that can shape your own future
and never try to fit in, the people will abuse you
and if they don’t accept you, you gotta make em used to you
[chorus]
no matter where you come from or where you tryna go
there’s never one path, there’s more than one road
keep your eyes on the prize and your feet on the floor
keep shinin’ that light ’til they see you glow
no matter where you come from or where you tryna go
there’s never one path, there’s more than one road
keep your eyes on the prize and your feet on the floor
keep shinin’ that light ’til they see you glow
[verse 3]
nana told me keep going to church, stay faithful
god is the only superhero that can save you
keep your head up, stay focused on your goals
don’t walk along the path anybody’s tryna pave you
never wanted help with a problem ’til it’s ours
what started being sweet end up turnin’ out sour
i find it funny we could party all week
but we can’t wake up to go to church for one hour
see, now i got you thinking
change, you ain’t got much time, watchin’ your life fly by without blinking
me, i’m just statin’ the facts, reinforcing the obvious
making a track, a few thoughts for you to poly with
try hard not to fall, and don’t slip
live your life like a movie, create your own script
and don’t forget that you’re exactly who to choose to be
and take advantage of every opportunity
[chorus]
no matter where you come from or where you tryna go
there’s never one path, there’s more than one road
keep your eyes on the prize and your feet on the floor
keep shinin’ that light ’til they see you glow
no matter where you come from or where you tryna go
there’s never one path, there’s more than one road
keep your eyes on the prize and your feet on the floor
keep shinin’ that light ’til they see you—
no matter where you come from or where you tryna go
there’s never one path, there’s more than one road
keep your eyes on the prize and your feet on the floor
keep shinin’ that light ’til they see you glow
no matter where you come from or where you tryna go
there’s never one path, there’s more than one road
keep your eyes on the prize and your feet on the floor
keep shinin’ that light ’til they see you glow
