VERSE 1
Old braids
Open wounds from new decays
Never taught to value life
So with d**h he plays
Labeled a misfit
By those who k**ed his innocence
With intentions of him to benefit
Being a menace builds his esteem
You wouldn't even be shook a minute If it was his inner self you seen
Pa**ed over like palms at pa**ed at Pa**over
No sight of resurrection that chapter is over
That was then this is now
AWAKE AWAKE
What they saw didn't equate
They eyes made a mistake
They placed a boulder on his shoulder and he didn't break
Instead the boulder made him bolder and ready to make
An impact through inspiration now he motivates
A world renowned speaker molding minds to be more great

Look at where they're going not where they are
You never know you might just find a star
Look at where they're going not where they are
You never know you might just find a star
Born free
Yeah
V E R S E 2
Mini skirts
Present scars from past hurts
Never taught to cherish life so with d**h she flirts
Labeled a Jezebel
By those who threw hell wishes with no intentions of filling up her well
To her a selfie was self-esteem
You wouldn't comment or like a picture if it was her inner self you seen
Pa**ed over like palms at pa**ed at Pa**over
No sight of resurrection that chapter is over
That was then this is now
SURPRISE SURPRISE
What they saw was falsified
They eyes had lied
They judged a cover didn't see she had gems inside
And them gems became a book for the Nobel prize
Peace from within and now she sheds joyous cries
A dream deferred which was hers now realized
FREE
Look at where they're going not where they are
You never know you might just find a star
Look at where they're going not where they are
You never know you might just find a star
Born free
Yeah
VERSE 3
They told you no tried to k** your dreams and bury your soul
Thought it hilarious when you shared your various goals
Said what you wouldn't, couldn't, and never would be
Most likely to become a failure inevitably
They said you'd never see success
And anything else was far fetched more or less
You been
Pa**ed over like palms at pa**ed at Pa**over
No sight of resurrection that chapter is over
That was then this is now
NEW DAY NEW DAY
More than a conqueror you stand head high and say
On your Sin-a-tra you tell'em, I did it my way
And that was following his path and thanks Yahweh
Born again and can never be lead astray
I found greatness and I promise I'm here to stay
FREE
Look at where they're going not where they are
You never know you might just find a star
Look at where they're going not where they are
You never know you might just find a star
Born free
Yeah

Royalty kingship
Above not beneath it
Head not the tail
Chosen few
Best believe it
Children of the king, by the throne is where we sit
Know you highly favored a leader and you should speak it (x2)
