Refrain:
I hope you can see the shore from where you are
You might be miles away, but close at heart
I hope you can see the dawn from where you stand
It might be dark, but you will land
Drift on, you will land
End Refrain

Beyond the braggadocio, of a rapper's poster
Epitomized, I was legitimized a score ago
Beyond that small thinking, what you call thinking
I never speak on what 'Clef, Pras and Lauryn knows
I was free before it was signed official
The body is the cage while the mind is the vessel
Thoughts in barrio we were taught to live
Distraught and destroy our areas, the more the merrier
It varies with the messengers, well today the lesson is:
Question everything, especially these pessimists
My suggestion is let it go, and let it live
I'm a gambler. I say love is LOVE and bet it is.
Me aesthetics don't attract mine, Google me and fact find
I stand up when it's that time,
We'll make it happen, that's the dealer's hand
Drift on, family. You will land

Refrain

"People recognize that they can refashion themselves. They can rehabilitate themselves. They have lived the life of the mind"

Let me tell you about perseverance, in this land of smoke and mirrors
My man, you need a hand to focus clear?
Well I can paint a pretty picture, and tell you that hope is near
Shorty learned to swim 'cause he's floatin' there
Waitin' for some mystery to fall and appear to us
While those so near to us, flip as co-conspirators
The belly was designed to stay full and warm
They gave me a TV and a dorm, and they call that reform
I read a book, wrote a song and freed my spiritual form
And then an oath amongst ourselves was sworn:
If any one of us made it to the other side and got back home,
We'd make sure that the little babies hold on, well here I am
