[Intro]
Its like life is so crazy sometimes but there's no need to add to the negativity, your mind is the only weapon you need. So together we all have the power to stop the violence and put the guns down
[Hook]
They don't wanna see me make it (we still gonna make it)
That's why they always hatin' (why you always hatin'?)
They don't really wanna see me win, they rather see me dead or in the pin (watch out, watch out)
They don't wanna see us make it (we still gonna make it)
That's why they always hatin' (why you always hatin'?)
Don't you know that you were born to win
All you gotta do is stay up out the pin
Stay awake and watch out
[Verse 1]
Just cuz I was raised in the ghetto don't mean I can't make it to another level
And just because you rode in the streets, don't mean you gotta rome with the heat
My mama taught me better than that
She said, you either lead or you follow the path
And only make room for the best, cuz real leaders don't follow the rest
[Bridge]
The streets got guns, police got guns
But that don't mean I need one
The streets got guns, police got guns
But that don't mean you need one
[Hook]
They don't wanna see me make it (we still gonna make it)
That's why they always hatin' (why you always hatin'?)
They don't really wanna see me win, they rather see me dead or in the pin (watch out, watch out)
They don't wanna see us make it (we still gonna make it)
That's why they always hatin' (why you always hatin'?)
Don't you know that you were born to win
All you gotta do is stay up out the pin
Stay awake and watch out
[Verse 2]
I'm tired of seeing people dying, on the news all I see is crying
I need to see my people trying, in the jungle just role with the lions
Cuz it's a jungle out there, boy it's a jungle
And they don't want you to grow, they wanna stunt you
You need start raising the bar, dream big in case you reach for the stars
[Bridge]
Police got guns, the streets got guns
But that don't mean I need one
The streets got guns, police got guns
But that don't mean you need one
You ain't gotta have a gun
[Hook]
They don't wanna see me make it (we still gonna make it)
That's why we gon' make it (why you always hatin'?)

All you gotta do is stay up out the pin
Stay awake and watch out
