[Verse 1: Monarch]
Photogenic spit, so on the mic, I hope you get the picture
Word of god, so what you miss is like deleted scripture
If you say you hate me now, wait till I get bigger
And every time you say my name you'll only make me richer
All my time, is spent achieving my goals
So it don't matter where you at, or what school you enrolled
Cuz if you don't have ambition, you're not one of my bros
You either strive for success of you're just wasting your soul
You better
Move quick, and do sh** you need to
Be yourself, cuz nobody else can be you
Think very carefully about your next move
Now tell me, homie: What you gon' do?
[Chorus: Monarch]
What you gon' do?
STRIVE!
What You Gon' do?
X3
What you gon' do?

[Verse 2: Monarch]
You're misguided if you think god has a plan
Because you gotta help yourself before he'll give you a hand
Success is the product of doing what you can
And when you've given everything and you look where you stand
It's the Finish line for some, mountain tops, for some others
But you don't succeed at all when you stay under your covers
If you have never bled, sweat, or even cried for a cause
You probably don't have any achievements at all
You better
Move quick, and do sh** you need to
Be yourself, cuz nobody else can be you
Think very carefully about your next move
Now tell me, homie: What you gon' do?
[Chorus: Monarch]
What you gon' do?
STRIVE!
What You Gon' do?
X3
What you gon' do?

[Verse 3: Monarch]
It's reached a time where you should pick up the pace
Cuz ain't nobody ever won by coming last in the race
And ain't nobody reached success while they procrastinate
You need to make your own future, there's no such thing as fate
If you dealing with a problem, or you're stuck in a rut
You have to chose right now, to get yourself unstuck
You better put the pipe down
And bring that GPA up
Cuz at this rate, trying, might soon just not be enough
You better
Move quick, and do sh** you need to
Be yourself, cuz nobody else can be you
Think very carefully about your next move
Now tell me, homie: What you gon' do?
[Chorus: Monarch]
What you gon' do?
STRIVE!
What You Gon' do?
X3
What you gon' do?

[Verse 4: Monarch]
Uh
Now wait a minute, this sh** is just not finished
I'll spit it till you get it, and live without limits too
Don't be a cynic, I'm clinically the fittest
To rise and replenish, the force, that's diminished
Of course you're not finished
So tell me what you gon' do
The biggest obstacle in life is really only you
