(Intro)
Yea
Everybody goes through highs and lows in life man
Its when you learn right from wrong
Block out the negative and focus on the positive
Thats when you can really make something of yourself
Just make sure you stay true to yourself
(Verse 1)
Lace up the nikes, tell my momma be strong
Life in my backpack, hit the road and im gone
Night after night, search the city for open mics
To play my songs and find out just who I am in life (Shawn Who?)
Before you know it, changes start to take place
Underneath the spotlight, hot as the suns rays
You find your true self, love grows into hate
Cause the ones who all said f** em
Same ones smile to your face
The reason that I find it hard to trust people today
I was let down, One to many times am I to blame?
Nah it can't be, Im way too pa**ive all I do is blaze
Can't let it pa** me, or get lost in the liquor or the haze
These days, we turn a f**in dollar to a dream
Money schemes cause the nine to fives don't cover what we need
To pay the bills let alone to see the family eats
Im not alone i know you feel it so repeat after me
It go like
(Chorus x2)
I deserve better, I deserve better
Its raining out now but nothing lasts forever
Yah the sun shine after the bad weather
And I know life's tough but we'll make it through together
Singing
(Verse 2)
Your Life can change in the blink of an eye
But the fast life's one hell of a ride
If you ain't strapped in and ready for action
Camera lights and flashing everywhere that you go
Why even give it a try?
Cause the people need a voice to relate to
Not a place to escape to
Try and hide from the world outside
This is get up with a smile kind of music
You gotta, dance to the beat and hold your head to the sky
I learned with every bright day a dark one awaits
So if their adding up you just gotta work for a change
Instead of counting disappointments
Learn to search for enjoyment
I know its kind of hard to do when your down on employment
But when you silence out the noises and find peace
Time is all you need and tranquility sets you free
So with all that you got left, Do more and talk less
Unless your like me and your rapping over beats
Singing
(Chorus x2)
I deserve better, I deserve better
Its raining out now but nothing lasts forever
Yah the sun shine after the bad weather
And I know life's tough but we'll make it through together
Singing
(Outro)
I deserve better, I deserve Better!
I deserve better, I deserve Better!
I deserve better, I deserve Better!
Yah the sun come after the rain so don't you let up motherf**er!
So don't you let up motherf**er!
So don't you let up motherf**er!
Keep your head up and just
Keep your head up and just
Keep your head up and just
Shine!
