[Intro]
Young Nasaro on the track, yeah
[Hook]
When the days seem short and you don't know why
Just keep your head up high, and show the world your pride
You just walk on, just walk on, just walk on by
You just walk on, just walk on by, uh
When people wanna judge you 'cause of who you are
You just look 'em in the eyes and say "I'm gonna go far"
You just walk on, just walk on, just walk on by
You just walk on, just walk on by, uh
[Verse 1]
So when you look up to the sky, what do you see?
The angels all around me, tellin' me to live free
'Cause the kind of world we're placed in's becoming more impatient
I'm rising and I'm waitin' till I come up out the basement
Ever since we left the slave ships, it's like it never changed
We still gotta work for what the higher power made
I'm workin' for a purpose and I'm aiming for the same
Devoted to the game, dedicated to being great
So God, if you looking at me, will you forgive my mistakes?
Every day I'm seeing gamers looking for a soul to take
Since a young'un, I've been trapped in the embodiment of hate
Then you blessed me with a gift which became my escape
Tell 'em anything is possible through ups and the downs
No more running around and sayin' something profound
And I'm still figurin' what time is rushin' to now
Life is goin' fast so I hope they're lovin' the sound
Tell my mama I will make it out take her out this apartment
Till we livin' on the beaches with all the rooms and garages
'Cause she taught me since a baby, just follow where your heart is
And don't change yourself to become the trending topic
Tell these other rappers to go back in the closets
The real rappers coming to knock you out your socks and
I will not be dealing with loans to pay for college
A young kid chasin' a dream with one dollar
[Hook]
When the days seem short and you don't know why
Just keep your head up high, and show the world your pride
You just walk on, just walk on, just walk on by
You just walk on, just walk on by, uh
When people wanna judge you 'cause of who you are
You just look 'em in the eyes and say "I'm gonna go far"
You just walk on, just walk on, just walk on by
You just walk on, just walk on by, yeah
[Verse 2]
I'm hopin' to be noticed and be float in the Bahamas
'Cause I noticed when you're broken and you're open to the drama
Being focused is the motive so I'm flowing with a [?]
Just to go and be the dopest, never lower than a dollar
Hope I'm never behind bars, that's a scary sight
The only bars I'm entering is what I'm writing every night
People sounding dead inside, is still petrified
The government took their only wings so they won't let 'em fly
But I don't need wings just to reach the top of it
When this music has me soaring like a rocketship
This isn't rocket science, when you run with the equation
That's stuck within the basics, frontin' on the faces
As soon as I make a rhyme, every time legend in the making
Sound like a name to be refined
But whatever I'm spittin' is complimentin' my vision
Tight rhymes on loose leaf, call it a contradiction
[Hook]
When the days seem short and you don't know why
Just keep your head up high, and show the world your pride
You just walk on, just walk on, just walk on by
You just walk on, just walk on by, uh
When people wanna judge you 'cause of who you are
You just look 'em in the eyes and say "I'm gonna go far"
You just walk on, just walk on, just walk on by
You just walk on, just walk on by, yeah
[Outro]
And that's what it is
Just a Brooklyn kid on the rise, you know what I'm sayin?
Tryin' to make an impact on the world through true hip hop
None of that ignorant shit, we droppin' that real shit
You know what I'm sayin?
The days grow shorter each day
But no matter how many times we fall, we always find a way
That's why time and time again we pray
And that's why we gotta spread love around the world
Instead of hate
[Hook]
When the days seem short and you don't know why
Just keep your head up high, and show the world your pride
You just walk on, just walk on, just walk on by
You just walk on, just walk on by, uh
When people wanna judge you 'cause of who you are
You just look 'em in the eyes and say "I'm gonna go far"
You just walk on, just walk on, just walk on by
You just walk on, just walk on by, yeah
