He Said Lyrics by Francis Arevalo

Love & Basketball

2017

[Verse 1 : Francis]
He said he would do it, he’s so set in his ways
When he said he’d pursue it, he’s gonna show you the way
Haters don’t get in the way, he never felt so awake
Later they’ll say, oh damn, he did do whatever it takes
OK, all you have is my word; all you have are my words
So have you heard when black sheeps were running the herd?
Last ones to leave, so you know that we’re coming in first
At the finish line, i won’t wonder what we've done for the world
Nothing is sure, except effort and passion for work
Pass me the mic and tonight, lemme take ‘em to church
We’re nobody’s saviours, we all participate first
We could be brave with the hurt, you’re here, there is reason for birth
We belong; with a song, make meaning on Earth
I’ve been meaning to have a meeting with God, show ‘em a verse
I'm blessed with a curse, i know yesterday’s worth
Cuz i don’t do it for perks, i do it with purpose to serve
[Chorus]
So you do you
And mean what you say
I like seeing you
When you doing your thing
Long as you got a beat
And a beat in your heart
Right here’s where we gonna start
[Verse 2 : Francis]
He said that he knew it, he’s got something to prove
Watch him using the music, we’ve got people to move
A human to be, a truth to uncover, we’re building a team
That’s feeling the dream with good rhythm and vision to see
In position to teach, within me, there's a mission to reach
And ambition to be a leader with the team that we keep
And the blood & the family that’s been given to me
To listen is free so i lay some wit and wisdom on beats
Offer ignition to each; i could do this in my sleep
I really do this in my sleep, i wake up to dreams
Not as hard as it seems, even if some years pass
I know who i’m determined to be, they can’t deter me
My crew's feeling real dutiful, make something beautiful
I made a mixtape so I can rap at my funeral
This is for my day ones, i won't need vacations
Cuz imma live em days i don't wanna getaway from
[Chorus]
So you do you
And mean what you say
I like seeing you
When you doing your thing
Long as you got a beat
And a beat in your heart
Right here’s where we gonna start
[Verse 3 : Francis]
We got the most talented fam that’s dreaming to play
So i’m tryna give them reason to stay and reach em in ways
And help ‘em all believe that we're great
And at this rate, for me, priority’s not even getting people to pay
I could give the schemes clearly for the years that i’ve made
But it’s so much fun keeping a secret for me
Just know it's lion season easy for as long as say
Truth is i’m on another level like a spiritual plane
That’s gonna lead us to planes, trains, and motives so loco
Train of thought isn’t fame — it’s to motivate local, we could challenge the game
So imagine our names on more banners, more cameras, it could happen today
OK and if they wanna have a debate, we got debaters on the team
I could send ‘em your way, then get to bending your brain
I’ll give em EP’s, extend em the play, cuz work ain’t the only reason that we're living today
Like we been taught to think in limited ways, i feel like Neo with a different name
We’ve got places to feel, and stages to see, and people to be
I can see the frequencies, i hope you feel ‘em with me
It’s so real to be free
[Outro : Francis]
The takeover, the break’s over
No one will ever know how many dominoes i pushed for ya
And how many seeds we got growing
