this is for all the people said i wouldn't be nothing /
and that was the words that i needed to hear to turn this here into something /
i can't front, we trying to get the grammy /
hit the road and postcard to the family /
rock that show everywhere where the fans be /
and i know that the haters can't stand me /
excuse my french if you don't understand me /
tell me what it's not, i'm a tell you what it can be /
'cause tonight if it go alright, tomorrow we gone be somewhere sandy /
girl you ain't even got to wear nothing fancy /
engine running, i'm ready to go /
plus we already late for the show /
you know who it is so act like you know /
all the late nights in the studio you thought that i was up to no good good good /
now i'd never do that to you but i know that maybe tiger wood's wood would /
for all the lame shows /
and the doors closed /
broken promises, could have given up /
when times are rough /
we carry on /
carry on and on /
for all the lame shows /
and the doors closed /
broken promises, could have given up /
when times are rough /
we carry on /
carry on and on /
this is my fifteen seconds of fame /
i promise y'all we gone be back again /
got one life with a whole lot to gain /
and live our dreams like we sleeping /
please don't wake me let me sleep /
that's when i come up with the words for the beat /
let moms tell it, we already famous /
pops want to know how much is it paying /
nah i ain't the best, but i'm saying /
when nobody else would play him /
like when you walk in an empty restaurant/
and they tell you all the seats in taken/ and it's big, this history making /
and it's big like a sumo's waistband /
to get here took a lot of patience /
and everything to fall into placement /
and now the advice that you gave me sounds the clearest /
when my homie said "success is the brother of perseverance" /
for all the lame shows /
and the doors closed /
broken promises, could have given up /
when times are rough /
we carry on /
carry on and on /
for all the lame shows /
and the doors closed /
broken promises, could have given up /
when times are rough /
we carry on /
carry on and on /
we move fast, they move slow /
we say yes, they say no /
we take it high, they stay low /
they say stop, we say go /
sometimes wrong, that's fa'sho /
but one thing that we do know /
when you ahead of the game you can turn around and tell 'em "i told so" /
uh, /
this is something like braille, at the tip of my fingers /
if i pass or fail, i'll still be a genius /
the way i use words in my freedom of speeches /
beautiful, like making babies with the senoritas /
we going through life looking for reasons /
feel like climbing to the top of the charts and just screaming /
or maybe i'm dreaming and just never woke up /
yeah, maybe i'm dreaming and just never woke up /
i told my little sister, she don't need all that makeup /
you never know love until you go through that bad breakup /
for all the lame shows /
and the doors closed /
broken promises, could have given up /
when times are rough /
we carry on /
carry on and on /
for all the lame shows /
and the doors closed /
broken promises, could have given up /
when times are rough /
we carry on /
carry on and on /
we move fast, they move slow /
we say yes, they say no /
we take it high, they stay low /
they say stop, we say go /
sometimes wrong, that's fa'sho /
but one thing that we do know /
when you ahead of the game you can turn around and tell 'em "i told so" /
