[Chorus - T-Pain:] Tell me what do you see When you looking at me (woooahhhh) On a mission to be What I'm destined to be (woooahhhh) I done been through the pain and the sorrow The struggle is nothing but love (nothing but love) I'm a soldier, a rider, a ghetto survivor And all the above All the above [x7] [Verse 1 - Maino:] Listen Really what do you see When you looking at me? See me come up from nothing, To me living my dreams I done been to the bottom, I done suffered a lot, I deserve to be rich, Headed straight to the top Look how I ride for the block, Look how I rep for the hood, I get nothing but love now When I come through the hood Getting this fortune and fame Money make all of us change The new benz is all white, Call it John McCain How the hell could you stop me? Why in the world would you try? I go hard forever, That's just how I'm designed, That's just how I was built See the look in my eyes? You take all of this from me, And I'm still gon' survive You get truth from me, But these rappers gon' lie I'm a part of these streets Till the day that I die I wave hi to the haters, Mad that I finally done made it Take a look and you can tell That I'm destined for greatness [Chorus] Tell me what do you see When you looking at me (woooahhhh) On a mission to be What I'm destined to be (woooahhhh) I done been through the pain and the sorrow The struggle is nothing but love (nothing but love) I'm a soldier, a rider, a ghetto survivor And all the above All the above [x7] [Verse 2 - Maino:] It's easy to hate, It's harder to love me Ya'll don't understand, Ya'll quickly to judge me Put your foot in my Nikes, Picture you livin' my life, Picture you stuck in a cell, Picture you wasting your life, Picture you facing a charge, Picture you beating the odds, Picture you willing to bleed, Picture you wearing the scar Thank you for making me struggle, Thank you for making me grind I perfected my hustle, Tell me the world ain't mine You've been seein' me lately, I'm a miracle baby I refuse to lose This what the ghetto done made me I put that on my father Tryna hope for tomorrow When I think that I can't, I envision Obama, I envision the diamonds, I envision Ferraris If the world was perfect, All my n***as behind me Ain't you happy I made it? That I'm making a statement? Take a look and you can tell That I'm destined for greatness [Verse 3 - T-Pain:] Now if im up in the spot (spot) Or if im out on the block (block) I hustle hard cause it's all the same And you know that grind don't stop Just 'cause I rose to the top And everybody knows my name Still grindin (still grindin), Still hustlin (still hustlin) No more pain (no more pain), No more sufferin (no more sufferin) For my ladies and my shorties and my thugs, keep that task, and the shine, and the love All the above [x7]
