Monarch (Nick Palma) - STRIVE (What you gon' do) lyrics

[Verse 1: Monarch] Photogenic spit, so on the mic, I hope you get the picture Word of god, so what you miss is like deleted scripture If you say you hate me now, wait till I get bigger And every time you say my name you'll only make me richer All my time, is spent achieving my goals So it don't matter where you at, or what school you enrolled Cuz if you don't have ambition, you're not one of my bros You either strive for success of you're just wasting your soul You better Move quick, and do sh** you need to Be yourself, cuz nobody else can be you Think very carefully about your next move Now tell me, homie: What you gon' do? [Chorus: Monarch] What you gon' do? STRIVE! What You Gon' do? X3 What you gon' do? X2 [Verse 2: Monarch] You're misguided if you think god has a plan Because you gotta help yourself before he'll give you a hand Success is the product of doing what you can And when you've given everything and you look where you stand It's the Finish line for some, mountain tops, for some others But you don't succeed at all when you stay under your covers If you have never bled, sweat, or even cried for a cause You probably don't have any achievements at all You better Move quick, and do sh** you need to Be yourself, cuz nobody else can be you Think very carefully about your next move Now tell me, homie: What you gon' do? [Chorus: Monarch] What you gon' do? STRIVE! What You Gon' do? X3 What you gon' do? X2 [Verse 3: Monarch] It's reached a time where you should pick up the pace Cuz ain't nobody ever won by coming last in the race And ain't nobody reached success while they procrastinate You need to make your own future, there's no such thing as fate If you dealing with a problem, or you're stuck in a rut You have to chose right now, to get yourself unstuck You better put the pipe down And bring that GPA up Cuz at this rate, trying, might soon just not be enough You better Move quick, and do sh** you need to Be yourself, cuz nobody else can be you Think very carefully about your next move Now tell me, homie: What you gon' do? [Chorus: Monarch] What you gon' do? STRIVE! What You Gon' do? X3 What you gon' do? X2 [Verse 4: Monarch] Uh Now wait a minute, this sh** is just not finished I'll spit it till you get it, and live without limits too Don't be a cynic, I'm clinically the fittest To rise and replenish, the force, that's diminished Of course you're not finished So tell me what you gon' do The biggest obstacle in life is really only you
