Tahir - Willpower lyrics

One of my partners once told me that "The only thing bigger than your will to do something Is your will not to do something And even that's the power of your own will Man, Tahir, love life Whether good or bad times I'ma climb? Make it all better instead of sitting around uptight Looking down cos it ain't right Whatcha gon do is the question Mope around fessing I stuttin nothing cos nothing stuttin me When them chips get low And I got no dough Sleeping on the floor Haters been poor and always will be Cos I know my self-worth, haters can't k** me See I realize that n***as need to ask themselves how they feel about that Whether you trying to get paid Or trying to get off crack But you can't and you ain't unless you change that What you think is what you will see How you act is how you will be Say it's hard and it never will be easy Make a fist if you feel me Chill if you can't n***a ain't and you will see (Shaunda Steele-Williams) Sometimes I sit back and look up to sky Asking myself why do I try (will power, will power) Do we begin to unite These pessimists Cowards don't exist Scared to take a risk Turn around and be the first to make a diss Try to keep it crisp and tight and let it rip If it don't work, at least I tried Hell I coulda died not satisfied You said you couldn't but you lied People don't try cos they petrified Of what though I ain't even worried about the po-po And once we ??? them There ain't a place that can't go And bump takin things slow Watching people sh** from get-go In my way-get blowed In my space-get towed Use sh** as fertilizer Make yourself grow and get wiser What you think is what you will see How you act is how you will be Say it's hard and it never will be easy Make a fist if you feel me Chill if you can't n***a ain't and you will see (Shaunda Steele-Williams) Sometimes I sit back and look up to sky Asking myself why do I try (will power, will power) Do we begin to unite You better wake up, get up, and big on up You better wake up and big on up Say what? Wake up, get up, big on up Wake up and big on up You better wake up, get up, and big on up You better wake up and big on up Say what? Wake up, get up, big on up Wake up and big on up Start it off with a mix of sand Add water with the sun and some help from man Let the mix just sit 'til you get cement Then form a rectangle and you get some bricks And when you get bricks No need to stall Stack bricks real tall And you get brick walls Get a plan Keep it going til you figure things out Work your plan Like you know it til you get a brick house Yea gon send this out to all political prisoners Worldwide, know what I'm sayin Behind enemy lines and on the streets It's all the same game To my n***a Oshawn, stay strong soldier Cos when you get home, you know we got you dog Believe that (Robert Williams) True thinking is a deliberative act of the mind Held fast to its task Good or bad The mind will bring into you life what you conceive Strong will is the master of the body Directed in the ? in the dictates of desire or reason Will is itself power to bring forth the motive On impluse that is strongest Be it positive or negative As is the mind, so is the will Contemplate confidence and belief in your will So your mind will be clothed With the power to have all possessions Self-possessions, self-restraints, self-direction And self-complusion to have anything you desire The law of the will is the law of all rounds Of symmetric character of self God gave us a choice to direct thy will And the power to be or not to be The choices is ours-Willpower
