CHORUS
Whoa-oh-oh.
Don’t you know we’re all worth it?
Hey-ay-yeah.
And we’ve come such a long way.
Yo, yo, yo.
I’ve got something to show the world.
And I ain’t leaving ‘till my voice is heard.
Are you?
VERSE 1
What’s that you say?
I can’t hear you if you’re telling me
That I’ve got better places to be, see, or things to do.
Now, who the hell are you to
Treat me like you know my life
Better than I do
Or like what I want is not at all worth it to pursue?
I’ve got a few choice words for you.
And music might not be
The way I ever make a living.
But that’s okay with me.
I’ll keep my creativity alive
‘Till the day that I die.
All other pursuits are trivial at best
When you ain’t got love and happiness.
That’s all that I strive for
In my performances.
Not to pay expenses.
Just to reach out to
Another human being.
Help ‘em jive, feel alive, and sing.
CHORUS
VERSE 2
You want to be, then be.
Yes, it’s really just that easy.
You know what giving up is? It’s what most do
Right before they get the chance to
Realize if they’d only just push through
A little farther,
They’d see the light emerging from the other side.
If I could
Go back in time
And write advice to a younger me,
It would say, “Trust yourself.”
And that’s a lesson that I’m
Still currently learning.
It might take a few extra years to sink in.
I know I struggle daily to not live in fear
And to ask my own questions.
But I will take on Cosmic Would You Rather.
My choice in the matter
Is just to touch human beings.
Help ‘em jive, feel alive, and sing.
CHORUS

Yo, yo, yo.

And I ain’t leaving ‘till my voice is heard.
