My father said never give up son
Just look how good Cassius become
Muhammad, Mahatma and Nelson
Not scared to be strong

Now you could come and just say they’re right
No I’ll never be noone in my whole life
Or you could come and say no wait they’re wrong
And get to keep on dancing all life long

My father said never give up son
Just look what Amelia and Joan done
Oh Rosa, Theresa their war won
Not scared to be strong

Now you could run and just say they’re right
No I’ll never be noone in my whole life
Or you could turn and say no wait they’re wrong
And get to keep on dancing all life long

Yeah you could be
Someone special
You got bright in your brains
And lightning in your veins
You’ll go higher than they’ve ever gone

In you I see
Someone Special
You got fire in your eyes
and when you realise
you’ll go further than we’ve ever gone
Just turn it on

Look… I paved my intuition
I couldn’t afford tuition
My funds was insufficient
It felt like I’m in prison

Until 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 trying to turn K’s to M’s what does it take

And maybe I could be the new Ali of music prolly 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 or you prove it to yourself
But honestly, it’s better if you do it for yourself

Never complacent until we hit the oasis
One life don’t waste it
Feel my heart racing
Success I taste it
Aye, we on the verge
Of getting every single thing that we deserve

Yeah you could be
Someone special
You got fire in your eyes
I see heaven inside
You’ll go further than we’ve ever gone
In you I see
Someone special
You got bright in your brains
You can break through those 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
