Yo, yo Grassroots We must start off back at the grassroots Running before I could just walk and being way too Hasty tryna fit with my small feet in my bro's shoes But life is like a shoe that keeps that keeps growing and never fits you Some get stuck back at the grassroots Cuz arrogance could never pave the way to Brighter days and better pays, man all of this old news But I'm tryna find my way out myself, I'm sure you are too Separate the greats from the good Tryna find my place up top but feeling like I'm no good Writing bar after bar till they could take out the hood But who am I to think that I ever could? DOCTOR JAY never could Make me shiver like he said he would, uh Make me cry or make me quake in my boots, na But nonetheless we keep going Grassroots ain't for me, I know I'm worthy lemme show it Apologies for the weird analogy (For the weird analogy) But this is just a story about me Dreaming bigger and bigger until I just can't breathe Chasing goal after goal and there's no referee Caught between the soul and the funk The hip hop and all the ways that we can show love There's just too much to explain And it all baffles my brain I speak on things that happen to everyone of us I think of different styles that I can emulate Maybe JB, or Jay Z or possibly just me Just concentrate Try to find my own voice and all that uni talk Be remarkable, have them amazed at how I make them bored You see the cycle I trail? These doubts got me believing that I just might fail, uh And nonetheless we keep on going Grassroots ain't for me, I know I'm worthy lemme show it But I won't forget what the grassroots teach How you've gotta earn the right to ever dine with the kings Find a way to cut that grass and then the world can see You're something special and you're more than simply clout hungry And so I look back on the journey so far And the scars on my heart And the story they tell of how a boy learned to laugh Because this life can beautiful if I just work hard Cherish the roots but after that we chase the brightest of stars Take it back No we never relax Gotta show all the doubters that we better then that Start to think that maybe all of this is to rest my soul And show certain man that I meant what I said way back I'll change the world with or without you and for me that's fact The roots go deeper and never liked that But nonetheless we keep on going Grassroots ain't for me, I know I'm Yo, yo And I can't wait for that glorious day When I step out on the stage and they all scream my name Thousands and thousands and thousands screaming DOCTOR JAY But if I'm honest man I'm not really after the fame See as a doctor I'm just here to help I've seen good people hurting I said good people hurting like we're stuck in hell And never understanding how to ever help But best believe that I would soon find a way and dedicate myself Cuz maybe I can help just like a doctor Making music and my lyrics as space for you to prosper Showing people that we all suffer And maybe showing them that they're not alone can lighten the load on each other, yo So I'll tell you a little story about a brother, uh Who was never gonna rest till you recovered, uh And Nonetheless we keep on the keep on going Grassroots ain't for me, I know I'm worthy lemme show it yeah Uh, yo, I know I'm worthy let me show it yeah Uh, yeah, I know I'm worthy let me show it yeah Uh, mmm, I know I'm worthy let me show it yeah And Nonetheless we keep on the keep on going, Grassroots ain't for me, I know I'm worthy no you know it
