Always Got Told

Always got told
Yea I always got told
Always got told
Yea I always got told

I always got told to let the old folk go
I always got told that your time will come around
I always got told the devil ain't who you know
I always got told that God will never let you down
Momma seeking wisdom through her hard times
Pappa seeking strength through his hard grind
Step dad hoping that he steps right
You could see the beast up in my eyes
I'm sowing ambition I'm reaping the cost
I'm showing ambition and hiding my flaws
They paying tuition I'm making the sauce
I'm living my name in opening doors
I ain't the typa dude that you would see up in a rap battle
Ain't the typa dude that needs a battle just to rap batter
Ain't the typa dude that you would listen to
Couple years from now you be listening

Always got told you should reach for the stars
Momma see the greatest all I see is beauty scars
Always got told you should reach for the stars
Momma see the greatest all I see is beauty bars

Put in that work or watch it get done
Putting in work is what you get done
Reading my word I'm serving the son
Reading the world I'm watching it num
Satan be blinding the people of God
Satan be living a life full of fraud
Narrow is harder than living abroad
JooDA the team, JooDA the squad
I always got told what you hate you become
I never took heed with the beat of my drum
You hating the ghetto but loving the gun
You serving the moon and think it's the son
I always got told you should reach for the stars
And ask myself why it's just closer to God
You live by the grind you die by the sword
You live by the word you die as a king
Matter fact you ain't die you just go home
Yea my God is alive and my soul is owned
Yea we made in his image so we just clones
We ain't made for the flesh it's just our clothes

Always got told you should reach for the stars
Momma see the greatest all I see is beauty scars
Always got told you should reach for the stars
Momma see the greatest all I see is beauty bars

Making a difference ain't living your life
Making a difference is giving your all
Making a difference is preaching about Christ
Making a difference is doing your the call
Do the most of what you got
Make the most of what you have
People tell me get a job
I'm like dog I'm doing that
If music ain't worth it, then what is my purpose
If I ain't no different then what are you learning
You born to be rapping then why are you cursing
You born to be driving then why are you swerving
Swerve
Swerve
Swerve
Making music on the highway best be staying in your lane
You be doing this for nothing if you in it for the fame
I ain't in it for the cash I'm about to bring the change

Always got told you should reach for the stars
Momma see the greatest all I see is beauty scars
Always got told you should reach for the stars
Momma see the greatest all I see is beauty bars
