Be You Lyrics by J.S.W.

#TBOJ2 : The Book of Jonathan II

2013

[J.S.W.]

Slow down
What the hell you saying?
You complaining about haters when you ain't even famous?

[Verse 1: J.S.W.]

Oh you different?
Well brotha what the difference is?
Been around the world seen alot that ain't different shit...

Hard to understand what I'm talking bout?
Get out the house - go find out what the world's about

You ain't different or global till you hear languages
Where every mothers "mama" -villages raising kids...

They way you talking sound kinda confused
Just keep up with your grind you'll be understanding me soon
See I'm
I'm like a fuse
I spark
And I go BOOM
Dyno-mite in real life
I might just even prove
Each rule that I'm breaking
Was broken cuz I ain't faking
You are
What you are naked can't cover up God's creation
That means
I'm what I am
Be true
On where I stand
Walk in
My true shoes
Can't walk in another man's
The shep-herd or the sheep
You fol-low or you lead
Ly-ing thru your teeth
You get eaten by the beast!

[Hook: J.S.W.]

Why even try and not be you?
(Be You, Be You)
Living lies you lie you lose
(You Lose, You Lose)
You cannot hide can't hide the truth
(The Truth, The Truth)
You know this me is that really you?
(Is that you? Is that you?)

Reach I teach
I teach to reach
(Reach I teach, I teach to reach)

Frontas everywhere
Ain't no fronters ova here
(F-Fronters everywhere, Ain't no fronters ova here)

Holla at some scholars
Man we bout more than some dollas
(Than some dollas, B-B-bout more than some dollas)

Frontas everywhere
Ain't no fronters ova here
(There ain't no fronters ova here, There ain't no fronters ova here)

[Verse 2: J.S.W.]

Slow down
What the hell you saying?
You complaining about haters when you ain't even famous?
Young man understand me -
You wanna be the man break bread with your family

You talking boss shit
Cause you got boss kicks?
But no Boston Green, some Chris Bosh shit??

You should Chris Paul
Play the point
Run this shit back if you ain't get my point
I'm like a coin
I flip and then I land
If it's - head or tails
I stick - to the da plan
The order of operations for life long innovation
Brilliant communication
Progress through dedication
I swear you see this before you come up
Hard work to elevate
Be lazy to stay stuck
The method to the madness is simple mathematics
Deserve what you earn-
Can't earn if you too passive

[Chorus: J.S.W.]

Why even try and not be you?
(Be You, Be You)
Living lies you lie you lose
(You Lose, You Lose)
You cannot hide can't hide the truth
(The Truth, The Truth)
You know this me is that really you?
(Is that you? Is that you?)

Reach I teach
I teach to reach
(Reach I teach, I teach to reach)

Frontas everywhere
Ain't no fronters ova here
(F-Fronters everywhere, Ain't no fronters ova here)

Holla at some scholars
Man we bout more than some dollas
(Than some dollas, B-B-bout more than some dollas)

Frontas everywhere
Ain't no fronters ova here
(There ain't no fronters ova here, There ain't no fronters ova here)
