-INTRO- *VERSE ONE* People always asking me What's the price man pay the fee They all turn and look at me And all stare in dis belief I simply say it has begun Time for my song to become sung History will be made tonight But i'll only sing it if it's right *CHORUS* Man it's called determination Don't give up just keep on facing The time it takes to get off the ground and fight once for our family's nation Back and forth keep on pacing Look at the moon that's fazing All the time your with that girl and asking for the love your chasing Start bracing *VERSE TWO* I speak the truth behind the lies I'll say it and look in your eyes I'll figure out what's your disguise And then send you to the F. B. I's Just look at the time And read all these rhymes And you'll know im the guy The one you want all your life be by your side to fight not ever hide Just show up with some pride And see everybody's cried You know someone has died So you yell out reprise! (REPRISE) Man it's called determination Don't give up just keep on facing The time it takes to get off the ground and fight once for our family's nation Back and forth keep on pacing Look at the moon that's fazing All the time your with that girl and asking for the love your chasing Start bracing *VERSE THREE* A wise man once told me son Only go out in the night But the rule he told me to follow Was only sing it if it's right I don't know what he meant That night outside my tent He made my feelings bent Like my heart was cement And it seems he's long gone by now That man with only one vow To look in my eyes and somehow To change my life and make me so proud To one day look in my own crowd And chase away everybody's storm cloud To sing it and scream it so loud To prove that I am so vowed (REPRISE) Man it's called determination Don't give up just keep on facing The time it takes to get off the ground and fight once for our family's nation Back and forth keep on pacing Look at the moon that's fazing All the time your with that girl and asking for the love your chasing Start bracing Start making Start baking Start writing, everybody every where's done hiding Man up and put some pride in The words you wrote so tight When you stay up late at night Smarten up I know your bright And remember only sing it if it's right
