Lyrics
We all need help from each other sometimes
Depending on me, I can still do just fine
But we can do better if we just work together
We all gotta make it, so lets make it right
First devise a plan, next you need to have a goal
Third you need to have heart fourth you need to have soul
If not then you just an empty shell, face that
Cuz blanks are only good for movies and stage acts
Rewind then playback, listen and lay back
Recap, wind up, sit back and watch it unwrap
But think before you speak, and look before you leap
Pay less attention to your enemies more to the friends you keep
So weak, but we pretend to be diamond hard
With wounds that have healed but permanent scars
Imperfections in the flesh, blemishes of the skin
That protected our chest, from the world’s cruel wind
Eaten alive from within, by hate and evil
Such strong people turned faint and feeble
Opportunity’s knocking… so check the peephole
Take this chance to revamp each and ev’ry approach
If you want it you can have it if you need it
You can take it, gotta do it, gotta get it, gotta live it gotta make it
But face it… aint nobody gonna do it for ya
So open your doors and let the energy pour and
Grow up to soldiers, grow up to be real men,
Somethin they can feel and risin up above the ceilin
Down into the earth into the core and steady drillin
Don’t stop hip hoppin til u get that
holy ghost feeling
Now check it…
HOOK
Gotta make it… for my moms
Gotta make it… for my dad
Gotta make it cuz this is the only life ill ever have
Gotta make it… for my folk
Gotta make it… for my peeps
What it boils down to is
Gotta make it… for me
CHORUS
We all need help from each other sometimes
Depending on me, I can still do just fine
But we can do better if we just work together
We all gotta make it, so lets make it right
We all need help from each other sometimes
Depending on me, I can still do just fine
keep getting by getting by cuz this life is rough
But sometimes getting by just aint enough…
See ive been down and ive been up
And Ive been sh** ted on and f*** ed
But I aint never given up
when I was down on my luck
cuz when I start to think im washed up
and sh** is over
I find a 4 leaf clover
And a leprechaun on my shoulder
So ima pass some of this fortune on to yall
Cuz my people are a team and Im just passin the ball
Like its been passed to me… a chain blessing
With no hesitation and no second guessing
HOOK
Just tryna get made, like lemons to lemonade
On a hot day sweatin and you cant find shade
Just come round my way… and I got you babe
There’s power in numbers just don’t be afraid
