[INTRO]
Yeah Yeah
Sometimes you're at school
And never realize the time to create your future is now
You need to wake to wake up!
If you're still in school
[HOOK ]
If you're still in school, better know the truth
You can make it if you want, no matter the price
Dream Hard, Wake Up and Create Your Life!
Dream Hard, Wake Up and Create Your Life!
Man you don't give up
Keep your dreams so high
In God we trust so much
You and I
[VERSE 1]
Let me cruise you through the pages of ma youth
The year was 2001, with a whole new crew
Was juvenile in the days of Lil' Bow Wow
Too much hustle on ma queue, damn I had no clue
I was a youngin' at SHACK, form 2 in 'Saka
Peeps in cla** used to call me Luts, that is true
One Friday night while they was watchin' Kadus
I was plottin' the servin of a whole new brew
"De Schmating", that's what it used to be called
N' Old boys had abandoned this evil tactic
O disciplining enemies like they were heretics
But I had an enemy lurking on my d**h list
Cla**-monitor kept me on every blacklist
Even when I was keepin ma peace in the cla**
So I made a plot thick, reading Stephen King
With disciple misfits, like things from The Mist
That night we hit a dorm, named "Le'Berge 2"
They was standing at the door as the bed I went to
With ma can full of the e'nsenene e'nfu
Was determined to leave a bed wet like the flu
Not just with gra**hoppers, but piss in it too
Man we were so deadly like the grill shady
Ma friends all shaken, but there was no snaken
And so I executed a horror at a quarter past 10
[HOOK ]
If you're still in school, better know the truth
You can make it if you want, no matter the price
Dream Hard, Wake Up and Create Your Life!
Dream Hard, Wake Up and Create Your Life!
Man you don't give up
Keep your dreams so high
In God we trust so much
You and I
[VERSE 2]
That's how I quit school in 2001
A young brother, with a broken sense of truth
Mama beat me so hard, man it was so bad
And so in 2002 at a whole new school
I had to let the pen be that almighty true tool
Never breakin the rules, not hangin with fools
Got me elected, a Prefect of the School
Reading books in the night, under the full moon
Man I was so cool, I could even rap too
Got me the name Fixx, I could fix anything
Was deep in the game, name ringin the bells
Met ma future wife too, E-V-E a girl true
She was still in form 2 but the love was true blue
We was kissin and huggin every after the preps
School love innocence deep and sweet like Schweppes
N' as true love, it soon attracted hate
Broken friendships, mob feuds and bull fights
2003, I became a sad player
Too much pride n' anger, I became a mad terror
Causing chaos in cla** like a Math Error
E-V-E no longer with me, regretting me
And so I hooked up with ma old self again
Too much chaos to cause, like a black divorce
Then ma father past away in 2003
[HOOK ]
If you're still in school, better know the truth
You can make it if you want, no matter the price
Dream Hard, Wake Up and Create Your Life!
Dream Hard, Wake Up and Create Your Life!
Man you don't give up
Keep your dreams so high
In God we trust so much
You and I
[VERSE 3]
I was now in form 4, age of 4 by 4
Most wanted by Police for causin the school terror
And so I ran with books into the ghetto
A move dangerous, got me expelled from school
Mama couldn't believe how stupid I was
Hangin at the street corner, pathetic bo*er
UCE around the corner like I had no clue
I read like loner, from every street corner
Determined to change my life from every corner
And so the day came, seated in the exam room
No success cards for me, Nobody prayed for me
It was me and the future, the Devil and God
Solving every X, in every math paper
It was me drawing art, God givin me heart
Should'a seen me back in the history cla**
Reminiscing all patterns that I'd been living
I remember writtin English like I was British
'Cause I possess sk** like I was Yiddish
I was deep on chemistry, being drug related
The physics hated me, but I k**ed it too
Somehow I saw ma future in hackin machines
Then biology was deep in my psychology
So I did the paper, with so much precision
At the end of the day nobody could hate
12 in 8? Man I was a f**in success
Kind'a success that time can never suppress
Reminisce how I felt looking back at me
Thinkin o those who thought it could never be me
N' now I'm sharing the story of ma glory
With everyone who's shared a page of my life
You can make it if you want, no matter the price
Dream hard, Wake up and create your life
[HOOK ]
If you're still in school, better know the truth
You can make it if you want, no matter the price
Dream Hard, Wake Up and Create Your Life!
Dream Hard, Wake Up and Create Your Life!
Man you don't give up
Keep your dreams so high
In God we trust so much
You and I
