Yeah, always knew I would prevail
Up along the Richter scale
It's a two-sided coin
Duck your head or tuck your tail
Learned some game from Jody Jo
You gon' buy or you gon' sell
You gon' tiptoe around society
Or crack the shells
When they try to egg me on
Get my blood boiling up
Is you gon' be down? If I'm down, would you hold me up
Or you the type to lend a hand? Just to say you owe me one
Will you fall or will you stand? Be all that you can become
Thankful for my inner circle
Thankful for my inner voice
Life is all about decisions
You don't really got a choice
You gon' have to read the signs
Like you didn't have a voice
They say to get with the times
Presently I feel like Hoyt
Tryna be the change inside the system that's built to exploit
If you don't conform to the agenda, you threaten the point
I aim to inspire, spark your mind like the tip of a joint
I said I always knew I would prevail
Up along the Richter scale
It's a two-sided coin
Duck your head or tuck your tail
Learned some game from Jody Jo
You gon' buy or you gon' sell
You gon' tiptoe around society
Or crack the shells
You gon' tiptoe around society
Or crack the shells
