collective efforts - doin alright lyrics
[verse 1]
i’m just thankful that i opened my eyes
early this morning stretchin and yawnin’
preparing for the daily
challenges will surely arise but i won’t sweat em
i just tackle them all one at a time and then forget em
’cause i’m focused on whats happening next
won’t let em hold me
’cause time is of the essence and my life’s my one and only
i’ma ride it ’til the tires burn off, grindin’ metal on the asphalt
sparks in the road, foot on the pedal
both hands upon the steering wheel to stay on the road
so when i’m old
i can reflect on what i learned through the struggle
how these hard times have taught me well
enlightened my spirit
and showed an alley cat how to survive in the jungle
(it ain’t easy) i keep my nose on the grind
and maintain, a level conciousness of the mind
you won’t hear me complain, ’cause bro, i don’t have the time
i’ll tell ya, long as i’m breathing everything’s fine
[chorus]
ya got a roof over your head at night
then your doin’ all right
ya doin what you wanna do with your life
then your doin’ all right
ya really know what you need to survive
then your doin’ all right
ya keep your hopes and your dreams alive
then your doin’ all right
[verse 2]
right on, to the real rhyme representation
that might never make it to regular repet-tive stations
but all the true dj’s give it heavy rotation
reppin’ it from the place that i was born and raised
in atl ga, we stay in the cuts
like my man, creation laying the cuts
sit back and listen, you’ve been saying too much
let that beat ride, feel the heat rise
let my feet glide, over the concrete
i got my headphones on and nothing can harm me
i’m feeling the melody and i’m singin the harmony
the rhythms comes into me, but forever beyond me
eternally calming the continuous pain
ease the pressure that tends to enter my brain
dont need no evidence to experience faith
all things considered, man i feel okay
[chorus]
ya got a roof over your head at night
then your doin’ all right
ya doin what you wanna do with your life
then your doin’ all right
ya really know what you need to survive
then your doin’ all right
ya keep your hopes and your dreams alive
then your doin’ all right
[verse 3]
another day to be blessed
and feel the rhythm of the city, survivin’
live enter the vision, i’m flippin’ to keep alive
im a fortunate man, given the power to stand up
for what i beleive, and i can’t give it enough
gratification, makin my place to keep it movin
at a smooth pace, do it in haste? never the case
elevation, reaching my goals, like when its told
people get it and give it control, outta my soul
another peice of my life
enters the light for the purpose of progress
searchin’ the earth, lookin’ for concepts
personal context
hoping to drive the inhabitions of a man to provide
a better mental, to rise above the struggle and pain
doin’ my thang for the sake of the rap game
provoking the mind
i keep hoping for change, but the pressure remains
but give it time, we goin’ be just fine
[chorus]
ya got a roof over your head at night
then your doin’ all right
ya doin what you wanna do with your life
then your doin’ all right
ya really know what you need to survive
then your doin’ all right
ya keep your hopes and your dreams alive
then your doin’ all right
