[00:01.012] Don't let nobody tell you who you are
[00:02.209] I remember sleeping wishing on a shooting star
[00:05.058] After practice overnight cleaning working hard
[00:07.331] Coming up short hoping one day I'd go far
[00:09.794] I was young dumb broke and I was still naive
[00:12.519] I had failed so many times but I still believed
[00:14.953] That I would turn into that man everyone could see
[00:17.682] Wouldn't never let nobody tell him what he could achieve
[00:19.883] I stayed focused walked right on my path
[00:22.061] I told my mom I was leaving and I couldn't come back
[00:24.494] Hopped out my feelings, quit my job graduated and laughed
[00:26.958] Then went to Cali straight broke and hopped right in my bag
[00:29.452] Now I'm standing here speaking, giving all I am
[00:31.917] Trying to show you that the change starts with one man
[00:34.471] I ain't lying cause I did so I know you can
[00:36.918] So I'm here to help the world understand that
[00:39.470] This is motivation
[00:40.454] For every single chance you ain't taken
[00:41.675] Any rule that's in your way you better break it
[00:44.459] Shut up, embrace it
[00:45.455] The pain is a pre-requisite
[00:46.520] Without it how the **** you think you ever gon' make it
[00:48.812] The sweat is your payment
[00:50.335] **** an escalator, take the stairs to the top right from the ****ing basement
[00:54.278] Your life is a statement
[00:55.432] Leave a legacy and stop waiting
[00:57.166] Get yo ass up today and start chasing
[00:59.098] This that motivation
[01:00.508] I'm hoping that this hits your soul
[01:01.935] They're just dreams till you sit down and you write your goals
[01:04.449] I remember when they said I wasn't built this strong
[01:06.969] I bounced back like elastic and put myself on
[01:09.356] Now I'm selling out these tickets to places I don't know
[01:11.891] Going to these places they said that I couldn't go
[01:14.610] Giving all my time to people at these shows
[01:16.926] To spread this message and this music that I know brings hope
[01:19.473] They feel it
[01:20.192] I don't gotta top a stupid chart or win a Grammy
[01:22.849] Just to show that I'm the realest
[01:24.175] I don't need a co-sign from nobody
[01:25.992] If they ain't said nothing by now they pretending not to see it
[01:28.694] Any odd I beat, negativity delete it
[01:31.582] I don't care about success, it's the journey I'm fiending
[01:34.069] If I say it I meant it
[01:35.508] Flow dirty, can't clean it
[01:36.697] Give a **** about the past cuz I RIP'd it
[01:39.112] Now I'm bout to ****ing hit the top
[01:40.939] You ****ing people can't cancel me
[01:42.217] Put me in the box or ****ing drive to me to insanity
[01:44.688] I'm already crazy, 1/4 of me is all of you
[01:47.008] So half of me is two of you and 4 of you is all of me
[01:49.798] You'll need a whole army if you thinking bout stopping me
[01:52.157] And 5 lifetimes if you're thinking you can copy me
[01:54.575] I've beaten poverty, went to war and beat mediocrity
[01:57.200] My life is mine, I'm molding that shit like I'm doing pottery
[01:59.697] I'm not scared of failure, I embrace it and chase it
[02:02.096] If there's a 1 percent chance I can do it, I take it
[02:04.558] I took the hate they all threw, sat down and I ate
[02:07.001] Then took the motivation from it, turnt to one of the greatest
[02:09.459] And now every time I drop I know I'm making a statement
[02:11.958] Replacing every single person that you got on your playlist
[02:14.476] I'm not a product of the system, that's why no one can break it
[02:17.050] I'm tryna change the whole game, man **** being famous dawg
[02:19.701] I'm self-proclaimed and I ain't never change
[02:21.985] I rock the same clothes and still got the same chain
[02:24.421] It's a reminder when I hooped and I would go and get my jersey
[02:26.939] And those people didn't even know my name
[02:29.415] Well now I know you you see it!
[02:30.766] They told me leave, I made a promise they would all feel it!
[02:33.174] I couldn't find the change so I said I'll be it!
[02:35.239] So I hope that y'all know
[02:37.011] This is Dax ****ing self proclaimed 4 GOOOOOO!
[02:38.883] This is motivation
[02:40.475] For every single chance you ain't taken

[02:43.925] Shut up, embrace it
[02:45.392] The pain is a pre-requisite
[02:46.616] Without it how the **** you think you ever gon' make it
