Yo, Whatever happened to that dream that God put in us?
You know before the world told you what you want to be and what you need to do to be successful,
Before you saw somebody else do it and said 'You know what, I need money, Imma do that'
Before you knew what money was And what did you want to be? And why'd you
let it go? Come on!
If you're getting sick of runnin and tired of hustlin' go for it, I tell em go for it
You got a dream that you chasin? Well, I think you can make it, you should go for it, I tell
em go for it Follow your dream, believe the game, please
don't be ashamed anyone can change O-ooooh there's a better way, there's a better
way, and shorty there's a better way, there's a better way
This dedicated to that hustla that's sick of hustlin
But won't nobody in his circle tell him 'Give it up' then
Get a new group that wanna see you shoot For the stars and two moons, let em follow
what you do Hustlin wasn't the plan, I know,
Mother was struggling and pops wasn't the man, I know
But even though your father was not home, he left but he's not gone
You still got a father seated on the most high throne
When you was younger, you had a dream, I know it
Sellin trees and dope was just 'possed to be for the moment
Keepin it goin wasn't even in notion If you believe what you hope it can be, but
to be it needs you devotion Media got us aiming to be American gangstas
Failin to tell us ain't no happy ending for gangstas
They dead or in jail, but it's never too late for change
You can be the one to pave the way if you ain't afraid
If you're getting sick of runnin and tired of hustlin' go for it, I tell em go for it
You got a dream that you chasin? Well, I think you can make it, you should go for it, I tell
em go for it Follow your dream, believe the game, please
This for the chick in the strip club tied to strippin
But her love for the money tells her not to quit it
Before she hits the stage she swallowin shots of liquor
All 'cause somebody convinced her there wasn't no promise in her
She never saw queen when lookin inside of mirror
In search of encouragement nobody would stop and give her
Nights she cries rivers and wonders if God forgives her
Pop's nothing to picture but gotta be a father figure
You're a mold in your body, life is more than paper
I know there's something other than money that motivates ya
Like what about your dreams lil mama? Cuz I know this ain't what you wanted to be,
lil mama But your sin has created you a lifestyle
That you can't afford if you quit so you're tied down
You can be free but it may take ya Givin the devil back everythin he ever gave
ya Bizzle!
If you're getting sick of runnin and tired of hustlin' go for it, I tell em go for it
You got a dream that you chasin? Well, I think you can make it, you should go for it, I tell
don't be ashamed anyone can change O-ooooh there's a better way, there's a better
way, and shorty there's a better way
I know you get the feelin like you don't have an option, but that's just a lie they say
Cuz I was on the same road, I was on his payroll, lost in the same old thang
Know that there's a better way that ain't as easy
Place your faith in the Lord, you can believe me
I'm just tellin you what I know, God is who I follow
Forget about your past, let him change your tomorrow
If you're getting sick of runnin and tired of hustlin' go for it, I tell em go for it
You got a dream that you chasin? Well, I think you can make it, you should go for it, I tell
em go for it Follow your dream, believe the game, please
don't be ashamed anyone can change O-ooooh there's a better way, there's a better
way, and shorty there's a better way
