I'm resolute, resolve to work until it works so I ain't destitute
Making moves, feeling like my opps are vegetables
Them niggas inactive, no blips on the map, they get sent packing
Like a villain with the dreads, how I'm still tracking
Never one off a bean like I'm Phil Jackson
Still acting like you balling, you been shaqtin
And can't understand the boss hog, this is pig latin
You need to get up off the wave dawg, you been saddened
I'm laying down the groundwork for the roots to grow
It ain't a problem if there isn't a solution for
Control my own space; Why would I be calling Houston?
Know where I wanna land when I drop, parachuting
Always put the mission first
High step, paratrooper, and I'm mastering myself
I know I'll always be a student
Even though my goals lofty
I can't say that they're loose
I just open my mind, live by my own design
If I can plan I can achieve
Making a way not believe, but I believe
Like a straight A student I overachieve
Even in moments where the possible was out of reach
Only my testimony y'all, I don't mean to preach
By design I'm inclined to shine with the light
The gold on me ain't the only thing glowing bright
Spirit of Samson whenever I gotta fight
I gotta step with my shoes tied, I can never stay down
I'm walking with the Most High
Grinding 25/8 so I can't lay in
Flying than Nimbus looking down on the same
And if I focus on my down days
I will never see the sun in a moment of haze
Facts
I see a vision that you gon' be raving
About me, God's gift, Elohim's favorite
Big stepping but don't trip if you see another pair of
Feet in the sand, cause that's the Big Dog walking with me
I just open my mind, live by my own design
If I can plan I can achieve
Making a way not believe, but I believe
Haven't been asleep but yes, still I wanna dream
It's not my ending credits to why I slid up on this scene
Never false, I got the power to handle what I believe
Almost like I got the playbook here, I pull it from my sleeve
Got a taste of love, it's hard for me to let go
You missed the assignment but you do it cause I said so
Fly don't wanna land, can't wait for you to see
Pay attention to the signs like they calling for the Red Coats
Never had a roof, paved the way for a summer
Had to put in all the work cause I never had a runner
No 40 on me but I stay going dumber
I can repeat the success like a terrible stutter
Never saying yes like a terrible mother
Stay away from stress like I'm smoking on Bubba
Still feels wrong like two left shoes
But I'm walking with God so I still can't lose
I just open my mind, live by my own design
If I can plan I can achieve
Making a way not believe, but I believe
