When There Is A Will

(feat. Boot Camp Click)

Where there is a will there is a way

Search and discover a better day

Where a positive heart is all you need

To rise from beyond and succeed

And young minds grow and respect each other based on their deeds

And not their color

Look and them and say as I say

Where there is a will there is a way

[Verse 1]

I don't know why the caged bird sings

But as long as Thug Life in my veins I be doin' my thing

These blocks raised me to hustle for change

I learned the hard way without pain there is no gain

My life experience is trapped on page

My thoughts in my brain release when I be rappin' on stage

I'm like a prophet of rage with a glock and a guage

I bang for my gang, won't hesitate to cock it and blaze

Some years in this game can teach ya some things

I've seen many try and fail but the strong remain

My uncle Boo been locked away since I signed my name

And I opened to family and friends for fortune and fame

I'm dedicatin' every song that I sing

In appreciation of loved ones from here to the grave

And I know this shit ain't easy but ya help me to maintain

Struggle continues, where there is a will there is a way

[Chorus x2]

He said

Where there is a will there is a way

To search and discover, find a better day

Where a positive heart is all you need

To rise beyond and succeed

[Verse 2]

I let my heart in the pen speak

I just guide the words and let 'em touch who they reach

They even fall upon the ears of the deaf

But you can read it in Braile or come to me in the flush

I'm authentic, I fire back if I'm fired on

But I'm human I bleed if my skin gets torn

And I was born within a Gemini astrology

I'm in the hood and boys see the two sides of me

That's why he said where there's a will there's a way

Ya have to think about tomorrow if ya livin' today

No one's worthless the girl with no father

Lookin' for love from any man that will bother

She takes the money and she whispers his name

Like the paper and the tears gon' wash away all that pain

Yeah, it's sad but that's how it goes down

So keep ya head up and smile for me now

[Chorus x2]

[Verse 3]

Just get ya click together and ya chips together

When y'all sit together and ya shit together, never

Let no man show ya no hand and no plan

That didn't show his home card, no fam

Where there's a will there's a way

And the jungle is a maze

When they rumble it's the strays that be duckin' like hey

I ain't tryin' to go to bed in the same night

Ricochet shots cover my head in the same sights

All I see so, all be is doin' this, pursuin'

The same dream to make cream

And the same fiends I pass by I ask why

Get the answer smoke cancer and slide

I look up in the sky give praise for everyday

That I'm sure to get paid like the sun give rays

Listen, it's hard enough to get a job but

It's harder to help us, hype, hustle, and tight the squad

[Chorus x4]

[Ad-libs to fade]
