My father said never give up son
Just look how good Cassius become
Mohammed, Mahatma, and Nelson
Kosa, St. Theresa when
Not scared to be strong'
Now you could run and just say “They're right
No there'll never be no one in my whole life”
Or you could turn and see the wind that blows
And get to keep on dancing all life long
My father said never give up son
Just look what Amelia and Joan done
Or Rosa, Teresa, the war won in war won
Not scared to be strong
Now you could run and just say “They're right
No there'll never be no one in my whole life”
Or you could turn and see them
And say they're weak, they're wrong
And get to keep on dancing all life long
Yeah you could be
Someone special
You've got bright in your brains
You can break through the chains
And you'll go higher than they've ever gone
Yeah in you I see
Someone special
You've got fire in your eyes
And when you realize you'll go further
Than we've ever gone
Just turn it on
Look I pay my intuition I couldn't afford tuition
My funds was insufficient and it felt I'm in prison
And suddenly I realized I had to set my mind free
I was trusting statistics more than I trust me
Get a degree, good job, 401k
But I'm tryna change k's to m', what does it say
And maybe I could be the new Ali of music, probably
Instead of doing it just as a hobby
Like these boys told me to
I guess you either watch the show or you show ‘em proof
Prove it to them you prove it to yourself
But honestly its better if you do it for yourself
Never complacent till we hit the oasis
One life don't waste it feel my heart races
Success I taste it
We on the verge of doing every single thing that we deserve
Yeah you could be someone special
You've got fire in your eyes
I see heaven inside
You'll go further than we've ever gone
Yeah in you I see someone special
You've got bright in your brains
You can break through the chains
You'll go higher than we've ever gone
Just turn it on
In you I see someone special
Don't go to war with yourself
Just turn, just turn, just turn it on and you can't go wrong
