Lyrics
When I was just a young boy my daddy said to me
Son you're gonna do big things, I might not live to see
But I strongly believe you got the will and you're smart enough to succeed
Work real hard and never give up, you can be who you wanna be
It's in your blood
Way back it goes, about a million years
You got it all in here
From mother to daughter, father to son
Cultivate your ambition, got to be number one
There's a passion burning deep inside your heart
History's pages turning, finish everything you start
It's in your blood
Way back it goes, about a million years
You got it all in here (2X)
Like the power of the wind blowing
Across the open sea
The strength of your conviction
Guides your destiny
Long after you're gone, will your memory be sung in a song
When you're doin right, oh you know you can't be wrong
When you make a mistake, would you try to atone
go on, go on, go on
It's in your blood
Way back it goes, about a million years
You got it all in here (2X)
I still remember granny, here wisdom was uncanny
My uncle Larry, he was scary but we loved him dearly
And then my cousin Jess, he always was a mess
And my grandfather, never met him but I can't forget him
Life is your story
Written where you stand
Determination and glory
Future is in your hand
Like the power of the wind blowing
Across the open sea
The strength of your conviction
Guides your destiny
[It's in your blood]
Uncle Earl travelled all around the world
Huey P. always believed in me
My uncle Ike, he was kinda hard to like
Although they're gone, they're still a part of my life
It's in your blood... (out)
