LA MI SI DO#m MI LA (x2)
[Verse 1]
LA MI SI
My father said, "never give up son"
DO#m MI LA
Just look how good Cassius become
LA MI SI
Muhammad, Mahatama and Nelson
DO#m MI LA
Not scared to be strong
(Man, what if they say I'm no good)
(What if they say, "get out of here kid, you got no future")
LA MI SI
Now you could run and just say they're right
DO#m MI LA
No, I'll never be no one in my whole life
LA MI SI
Or you could turn and see the way they're wrong
DO#m MI LA
And get to keep on dancing all life long
[Verse 2]
LA MI SI
My father said, "never give up son"
DO#m MI LA
Just look what Amelia and John done
LA MI SI
Oh Rosa, Theresa their war won
DO#m MI LA
Not scared to be strong
LA MI SI
Now you could run and just say they're right
DO#m MI LA
No, I'll never be no one in my whole life
LA MI SI
Or you could turn and see the way they're wrong
DO#m MI LA
And get to keep on dancing all life long
Chorus
MI
Yeah, you could be
DO#m SI
Someone special
MI LA
You've got bright in your brains and lightning in your veins
MI SI
You'll go higher then they've ever gone
MI
In you I see
DO#m SI
Someone special
MI LA
You've got fire in your eyes an'
MI SI
When you realize, you'll go further then we've ever gone
[Rap]
(Look)
Just turn it on
LA MI SI
(I pay my intuition, I couldn't afford tuition)
(My funds was insufficient, it felt like I'm in prison)
DO#m MI LA
(Until I realized I had to set my mind free)
(I was trusting statistics more than I trust me)
LA MI SI
(Get a degree, good job, 401k)
(But I'm trying to turn Ks to Ms, what does it take?)
DO#m MI LA
(And maybe I could be the new Ali of music, probably)
LA MI SI
(Instead of doing it just as a hobby, like these boys told me to)
(I guess you either watch the show, or your show approved)
DO#m MI LA
(Prove it to them or you prove it to yourself)
(But honestly its better if you do it for yourself)
LA MI SI
(Never complacent 'til we hit the oasis)
(One life don't waste it, feel my heart races)
DO#m MI
(Success I taste it, ah)
LA
(We on the verge, of gettin' every single thing that we deserve)
Chorus
MI
Yeah you could be
DO#m SI
Someone special
MI LA
You've got fire in your eyes, I see heaven inside
MI SI
You'll go further then we've ever gone
MI
In you I see
DO#m SI
Someone special
MI LA
You've got bright in your brains, you can break through the chains
MI SI
You'll go higher then we've ever gone
LA MI SI
Just turn it on
DO#m MI LA
[Outro]
LA MI SI
In you I see
DO#m MI LA
Someone special
LA MI SI
Don't go to war with yourself
DO#m MI LA
Just turn, just turn, just turn it on
LA MI SI
And you can't go wrong
DO#m MI LA
