Where there is a will there is a way Search and discover a better day Where a positive heart is all you need To rise from beyond and succeed And young minds grow and respect each other based on their deeds And not their color Look and them and say as I say Where there is a will there is a way
[Verse 1] I don't know why the caged bird sings But as long as Thug Life in my veins I be doin' my thing These blocks raised me to hustle for change I learned the hard way without pain there is no gain My life experience is trapped on page My thoughts in my brain release when I be rappin' on stage I'm like a prophet of rage with a glock and a guage I bang for my gang, won't hesitate to cock it and blaze Some years in this game can teach ya some things I've seen many try and fail but the strong remain My uncle Boo been locked away since I signed my name And I opened to family and friends for fortune and fame I'm dedicatin' every song that I sing In appreciation of loved ones from here to the grave And I know this shit ain't easy but ya help me to maintain Struggle continues, where there is a will there is a way
[Chorus x2] He said Where there is a will there is a way To search and discover, find a better day Where a positive heart is all you need To rise beyond and succeed
[Verse 2] I let my heart in the pen speak I just guide the words and let 'em touch who they reach They even fall upon the ears of the deaf But you can read it in Braile or come to me in the flush I'm authentic, I fire back if I'm fired on But I'm human I bleed if my skin gets torn And I was born within a Gemini astrology I'm in the hood and boys see the two sides of me That's why he said where there's a will there's a way Ya have to think about tomorrow if ya livin' today No one's worthless the girl with no father Lookin' for love from any man that will bother She takes the money and she whispers his name Like the paper and the tears gon' wash away all that pain Yeah, it's sad but that's how it goes down So keep ya head up and smile for me now
[Chorus x2]
[Verse 3] Just get ya click together and ya chips together When y'all sit together and ya shit together, never Let no man show ya no hand and no plan That didn't show his home card, no fam Where there's a will there's a way And the jungle is a maze When they rumble it's the strays that be duckin' like hey I ain't tryin' to go to bed in the same night Ricochet shots cover my head in the same sights All I see so, all be is doin' this, pursuin' The same dream to make cream And the same fiends I pass by I ask why Get the answer smoke cancer and slide I look up in the sky give praise for everyday That I'm sure to get paid like the sun give rays Listen, it's hard enough to get a job but It's harder to help us, hype, hustle, and tight the squad
