Some nights I stay up Silent in my own heart Some nights I call out to the world Some nights I wish that my song would last forever Some nights I'm much too tired to soar But I still wake up I'll still use my voice but Lord I'm still not sure what I stand for What do I stand for? What do we stand for? Most nights I'm not sure anymore
This is it yo - I'm feeling alright Give me the mic - my games on Friday night lights MattyB and I'mma be whoever I like Rippin through bars 'cause I spit whatever fits right Rip it apart - it seems like Some haters think that they can catch us sleepin' they must be dreamin' Flip on the spot light (point 'em out) All the bullies who want to pick fights (a little louder) We can hear you from where we at (sike!) This ain't about me, I'm just B... 9 years old but I see that something ain't right (spell it out) People frontin' and they ain't that tight (where are they now?) Trying to act like the future ain't bright The world is yours and it's mine But all this hate and separation - I ain't got time I'm looking for friends with great minds Kids like us who don't care with hands in the air some nights (MattyB!)
That's alright I saw myself on that TV tonight The words of those who challenge who I am Who I am, who I am Oh who am I? Ohhhh
Well some nights I wish that it all would end Cause I could use some love for a change (yeah yeah yeah) And if I left you with just one thing Like if it was just you and me No matter what your friends might think You can be whatever you make up your mind to be But I still wake up I still use my voice oh Lord when I'm not sure what I stand for What do I stand for? What do we stand for? Some nights I feel sure
I dare to be someone who's not afraid to follow my heart. To mute those who bully and speak badly about others while celebrating every little thing that makes us all special. I choose to lead down a road less traveled and rap about what's important to my generation. I dare to believe in myself. Do you?
