WAKE UP!!
LISTEN UP!!!!
HEAD UP!!
NOW THAT I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION
AND YOU ARE NOT WATCHING TV AND HEAD IS OUT FRIDGE IN THE KITCHEN.
YEAH, I’M TALKING TO YOU, I’M TRYING TO PLANT A SEED; PLEASE DON’T WAIT
I KNOW WHAT SAYING “WHAT ARE YOU TALKIN ABOUT?” I WANT YOU TO SUCCEED; TO BE GREAT.
I WAS THE 1ST ON MY FATHER SIDE TO GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL,
SO FROM THEIR IGNORANCE I DIDN’T GO STRAIGHT TO COLLEGE, I DIDN’T HAVE THE TOOLS.
18 YEARS WITHOUT A PLAN, I HAD TO MAKE DECISION AND MY DECISION WAS TO ENTER THER SERVICE,
FOR 3 MONTHS AND 1 WEEK, MY WILL, PRIDE, AND HEART WAS CHALLENGE.
BY NOW YOU KNOW YOURSELF PHYSICALLY,
BUT NOW I WANT YOU TO MOTIVATE YOURSELF MENTALLY.
WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU FALL DOWN?
DUST YOURSELF OFF AND PICK YOURSELF OFF THE GROUND.
I NEED TO KNOW, YOU'RE GOING TO DO MORE WITH LESS,
SO WHEN I'M NOT THERE, I KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO BE A SUCCESS.
