Tyriq Omar - Be Strong Lyrics

Yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's rap's Rick James
That nigga insane
Be strong! (yeah, yeah)
That's right! (come on, come on, come on)
Be strong! (yeah, yeah)
That's right! (come on, come on, come on)
Be strong! (yeah, yeah)
That's right! (come on, come on, come on)
Be strong! (yeah, yeah)
That's right! (come on, come on, come on)
Wickedness run the streets, so the streets is done
Look at where we come from and what we've become
Used to look to the Son before we looked to guns
Now they look for ones and dead presidential funds
Hundred bills, hundred bills need a hundred mil
Run the field, hunt to kill, make 'em run at will
Lose your mind trying to climb top a muddy hill
Wishing it would come sooner, that's word to Buddy Hield
They don't think little buddy would shoot, but he will
And you can't understand exactly how that struggle feel
To tussle with good and evil on daily basis
The ills are faceless
Keep it tighter than fresh braces
We done racing, slow down the pacing
Look at what you're chasing
Is it worth waiting?
Can you stay patient?
If it is, I got a feeling you'll make it (Yeah!)
Be strong! (yeah, yeah)
That's right! (come on, come on, come on)
Be strong! (yeah, yeah)
That's right! (come on, come on, come on)
Be strong! (yeah, yeah)
That's right! (come on, come on, come on)
Be strong! (yeah, yeah)
That's right! (come on, come on, come on)
Summertime, wintertime, autumn, spring
It don't mean a thing
All I wanna do is make my Father proud of me
Make my mama smile on me
Proud He created me
Smile for her child 'cause she waited patiently, Ooh
For me to answer the call
Always there when I fall
Cheered for me when I would ball
And it come full circle
I done found my purpose
The curve is something perfect
The urge to cook and serve this
The work is the resurgence
Of the hardest synths since Earth Wind, this fire
Lighter than the heaviness that's holding you down
Like a pup in a pound
Pound for pound, the sound, astounds the world renowned
Pure hearts play a part
Look at what you're depending on to feed you
Your people need you
I see you!
You gotta reach through, pull off the tether
I guarantee any storm we can weather together
Be strong! (yeah, yeah)
That's right! (come on, come on, come on)
Be strong! (yeah, yeah)
That's right! (come on, come on, come on)
Be strong! (yeah, yeah)
That's right! (come on, come on, come on)
Be strong! (yeah, yeah)
That's right! (come on, come on, come on)
