(Verse 1)
Now you can follow from the city, to the country
From the beach, to the burbs
Mr. T-Y-S-O-N is enticing you with these words
To grasp your attention and reach the average listener
My song is like a signal
Just call me the commissioner
If it is a dark night, get ready for the dawn
Cuz this is the moment that we've gotta get along
It's more than a song, you can take it as motivation
To unite all of the people inside of our broken nation
Ignite the pa**ion, the spirit in our youth
We could make them astrophysicists and help them seek the truth
The young Trayvon never lived to see professors
Put down the Smith & Wesson
Leave your Glocks up in the dresser
Extend a helping hand to help your fellow man
Then we'll help the whole world come to learn and understand
That we're not all criminals, we're not all thugs
We ain't all been to jail and we ain't all selling d**
But y'all don't wanna hear it, y'all just sit and fear it
Afraid we'll recognize our worth and fix our living spirit
Cuz we're too busy focused on the unimportant things
Like our cars and our clothes and our diamonds and our rings
I am the one you've waited for and made it right on time
I started at the bottom and now it was worth the climb
I'm switching up the standards that we've set for our culture
Making gold out of lead
I'm turning rocks into sculptures
(CHORUS)
Follow me now if you wanna get down
With a new school sound, you know who's running the town
If you're a clown then it's time to lay down
JusListen Entertainment's gonna take the crown
Follow me now if you're ready to groove and make moves to the tunes I produce for you
My whole crew is making power moves
If you didn't know before, just know it's how I do
(Verse 2)
I'm here to represent unrepresented people
Shedding light upon the darkness until the world is equal
This is the start, the beginning of our turning point
We're getting higher
I ain't talking bout a burning joint
This joint could bang from New York to Japan
But it won't mean much to me if I can't help a broken land
And do everything I can to prevent more problems
Because our politicians seem like they don't wanna solve them
I put my thoughts in action, til I get satisfaction
The method to my rhyme's inspired by the baddest Jackson
Shout outs to Stevie Wonder
Big ups to Shawn Carter
And if you're working hard then one day you'll be a starter
Cuz we're all underdogs
Everybody living
So to help each other out we gotta do some giving
Then you'll be super rich
That's word to Uncle Russell
And if you're moving backwards, then you need to switch your hustle
They call it progress
The act of getting better
Then you can make it in this world, that's word to every letter
I've ever written I tell it different so pay attention
I'll take it to a higher chakra, til we find ascension
One thing to mention is that I ain't here to preach
I just learned a couple things and felt it might be time to teach
So my release is through the pen and the camera
I talk it how I live it, cuz it's all part of the plan bruh
(Chorus 2x)
