You know one of the best questions to ask is,
What do you see in this world, and
What do you see in yourself?
What makes you different than everyone else?

I see a world full of endless commotion
So many seek to escape the sins of their fathers
The evils of the past, why do we make them last
Why do we even bother
Why do we tell the kids all these statistics 
as if there lives already determined
We inject our own society with this detrimental burden

We divide ourselves by the colors of our skin
No unifying by everything we've got within

I know centuries ago
Racism was afloat
Women couldn't get to vote
Minorities couldn't vote

Now I'm astonished by the crowd
So many think somehow
All the issues of the past
Are still the same right now

No, no, no, no way
Your color don't give you credentials
Every one in this place
Was born with the same potential

The problem's never in the face
It's always been in the heart
It all begins in the mind
where good and evil starts 
The biggest form of control is keeping people ignorant of the truth
It's always been a mind game
That's just how they get you

Know the truth you can do whatever you wanna do
Don't you limit yourself to what is in front of you
Or what the world tells you
It don't matter your social group
One thing is true
You're only you

Only you
(Only you, only you, only you, yeah you're only you)
Only you yeah
(Only you, only you)
I think it's time for you and I to know ourselves
Only you
(Only you, only you, only you, yeah you're only you)
Only you
(Only you, yeah you're only you)
You're defined by what's inside
You should get to know yourself

Don't allow society to tell you who you are
Don't let your past mistakes define you
You are who you are right now in this moment
Know yourself

Picture our life in a dream 
Creating a common routine 
Living don't know what it mean 
Sketching a canvas you part of a theme 
Visualize terror it's all on the screen
Don't know no better we double the cream
How you Correta you don't have a King 
Inception was threaded and caught in a seam 
Feeling indebted you act like a slave 
Deception embedded and so you behave 
Societal pressures don't limit my aim 
My game step back Curry with the range 
Stop and access and I break out the cage 
Padlock prep I prepare for the the case
Sell your soul get locked in a safe 
Bail you out but the money in the grave
Ain't not doubt that the money ain't safe
Don't put no trust in a thing you can't take
Take off the mask and uncover the face 
Yea, Zipping up the bape just to cover the shame
But the wool in your heart engrained the stain 
Padlock your soul can't erase the pain 
It hurts your soul just to feel the same 
If it don't make change then it don't make sense 
Man, Looking like the agents in the matrix
Mind on the blue faces need a facelift 
Heart on the grey pavement how to paint this 
Grayscale tainted can't taint this
Find the light and make amends 
Shadow life until the end
Put goals to flight and cut loose ends
Cause you can't look out if you don't look in

 Know the truth you can do whatever you wanna do
Don't you limit yourself to what is in front of you
Or what the world tells you
It don't matter your social group
One thing is true
You're only you

Only you
(Only you, only you, only you yeah you're only you)
Only you yeah
(Only you, only you)
I think it's time for you and I to know ourselves
Only you
(Only you, only you, only you yeah you're only you)
Only you
(Only you, yeah you're only you)
You're defined by what's inside
You should get to know yourself

Only you
(Only you, only you, only you yeah you're only you)
Only you yeah
(Only you, only you)
I think it's time for you and I to know ourselves
Only you
(Only you, only you, only you yeah you're only you)
Only you
(Only you, yeah you're only you)
You're defined by what's inside
You should get to know yourself
