My momma work 2 jobs when we lived in Harvey
Went to church every day
No weapon formed could ever harm me
Surrounded round drug dealers and strippers that worked down at Arnie's
Who knew that 9 years later, I would up and join the army
Holidays Holidays at my auntie Connie's
Christmas's, Thanksgivings, Birthday party
Everything was cool peaceful and serene
Til my cousin Daryl up and join the Marines
Her eyes turn bloodshot red like she was swimming in chlorine
Couldn't stop his drive
Couldn't kill his dream
Semper fi, Semper fi
You know, left right left right
Double time double time, had to do for himself
Admired him for the Choices he made
Who knew some odd years later I'd walked the path he paved
Didn't say much because he lead by example
Now I know my role and use all of my mantles to be
All I can be, All I can be, back against the wall feel like I can't achieve
Be all I can be, all I can be
When I can't find love in my home or in the streets
Be all I can, all I can be
Never lose faith in G.O.D
To be all I can be, all I can be
Just be all I can be, just be
My momma work 2 jobs when we lived in Harvey
Went to church every day
No weapon formed could ever harm me
Surrounded round drug dealers and strippers that worked down at Arnie's
Who knew that 4 years later, I would up and join the army
May 17th rubbing cream on my grandmother's back
Teaspoons of morphine tryna to help her relax
She recognize my face
She don't know my name
Cancer killing her body I mean it's wrecking her brain
I mean I love her the most
In the mornings coffee and toast
Back and forth to the bathroom
We were just that close
I use to stare in her eyes
Read the lines on her face
Her wrinkles told me stories of glory in our DNA
Her time was coming soon but it would be okay
Had the heart of a warrior like most black women today
She told me when she passed I better not cry
She spread her wings, and I watched her fly, and as for me to be
All I can be, All I can be, back against the wall feel like I can't achieve
Be all I can be, all I can be
When I can't find love in my home or in the streets
Be all I can, all I can be
Never lose faith in G.O.D
To be all I can be, all I can be
Just be all I can be, just be
Be all I can be
I was just a snot nose kid at the age of 12
No care in the world only for myself
I had to be
Hang with 9 broke nigga's bond to be the 10th one
I separated myself ain't wanna be that one
I had to be
Don't listen to my friends or the ones who doubted
Gotta spread my roots, Gotta stay boundless
I gotta be
I gotta be yeah, I gotta be
Whether east side, south side, or independence and hope
At the end of the day, know you still got hope to be
All I can be, All I can be, back against the wall feel like I can't achieve
Be all I can be, all I can be
When I can't find love in my home or in the streets
Never lose faith in G.O.D
I gotta BE
