[Verse 1: Sene]
We all trying to wear pinstripes and not have to get life pursuin' it
Leather chairs with cocktails, yeah, we doin' it
Six rooms with six baths plus the groove is sick
Slick rick the new edit', each week the newest kicks
"But why you doin' it?" Probably 'cause they said I couldn't
Mama always said I shouldn't, papa said I wouldn't, couldn't
Fuck, maybe I should quit and get a degree
Drop my microphone off and shit on my peeps
Pops always said never keep your heart on your sleeve
People see it as a weakness, cut your arm and your sleeve
So it's only natural, doubt I'll have the heart of a gee
Cats follow him, funny now they followin' Sene
[Chorus: Blu]
Like, be whatever you wanna be
If only you just believe, surely you can achieve
Whatever's in your dreams can be your reality
No matter what it seems, this is your L-I-F-E
So be whatever you wanna be
If only you just believe surely you can achieve
If you wanna be a thief, firefighter, or police
You could be O-G, or you could be a G-O-D, just be
[Verse 2: Sene & Blu]
Call me bad news, fifteen with two tattoos
Always out with the crew playing loud rap music
What they heard as noise, me I turned into a future (Yeah)
And I felt the same way, so I turned into a producer
Used to tell Exile what I wanted to loop up
Now I'm at the table puttin' needles to the cues
Cut, cuttin' fools up
Lovin' what I do and get a pretty penny doin' it
Payin' off dues in the process
Money is the object, yet I
Thank God that I can make rent and make dollars
Everybody wanna be theyself, but need a reason to
So, I'm here to let you know that I believe in you
First, you need to put more thought in who's leadin' you
'Cause those can very well be the same people deceivin' you
Used to look at rappers as the leaders who could lead us through
But really, through the people, it's you
[Chorus: Blu]
Like, be whatever you wanna be
If only you just believe, surely you can achieve
Whatever's in your dreams can be your reality
No matter what it seems, this is your L-I-F-E
So be whatever you wanna be
If only you just believe surely you can achieve
If you wanna be free or if you wanna be me
You could be O-G, but you should be a G-O-D, so be
[Verse 3: Sene]
I said that's cool in the gang, you pullin' a few chickens
But I seen your contract, you missin' a few digits
No roughneck, you just got a few ridges
Probably only seen the precinct as a witness
My folk's first son, only go to sleep when work's done
Knew I had your ear since verse one
Don't cry when my hearse comes, go get yours
Fuck two, go get four
'Til your foyer got marble floors
Very important person, never carded at door
"Calm down, chief, he's part of the tour"
[Verse 4: Blu]
Yeah and ain't an artist as pure behind bars like Assata Shakur
Slap cops, peace to Zsa Zsa Gabor, tell 'em pardon my gore
Had flashbacks, started a war
What a loss got caught in a storm
Sport a cross on my back
Better that than a boss on my neck
Tell 'em sneeze, cheese, and cough up a check
Breathe ease, God's in effect
Everybody talking, "What's next?"
Don't get your neck snapped
Tryna talk back to the chiropractor
Actor get severed in half by a rapper (Haha)
Wasn't even funny, where's my money?
Came through, two Playboy bunnies on my arm
[Outro: Blu & Exile]
What rhymes with arm? (Charm)
Charm, school for fools
When he come through, you lose
Mic check, one, two, get bruised (Haha)
Yeah
