JON JAKE - Great

We can ride out
We can run away
We can go deep sea
We can go out of space
I don't want to spend my whole life stuck in the same place
The clock goes tick tock as we run out of faith
I just wanna be great
I just wanna be great (Ooooh)
Nothing can stop us now
Nothing can hold us down
Nothing can stop us now
Nothing can hold us down
Lately I been wondering
What's in store for us
Type of thinking
Got me believing
That there's more for us
Shout out to the ones
Who wouldn't open doors for us
I'll kick down walls
Ready to go to war for us
We know the enemy
Comes to kill and destroy joy
So I do this for the kids
With out a voice boy
Pray they regard my lyrics
Like Leo Tolstoy
Cause where I'm from
Being great wasn't a choice boy
When I was down and out
No one could pick me up
Purpose came beside me
And it would lift me up
When darkness surrounded me
Your spirit lit me up
Gave me a spark
That can light my whole city up
My legacy
Brought forth like a pregnancy
My jealousy
Kill it like it's my enemy
My weaponry
Check check out my melody
Especially when calling forth the heavenly
And they want us to forfeit
My minds fully loaded
Grab the mic like a four fifth (Yeah)
And dismantle your fortress
Trust me
My words speak life to the corpses
Like
I think they want us to forfeit
My minds fully loaded
Grab the mic like a four fifth (Yeah)
And dismantle your fortress
Trust me
My words speak life to the corpses
Like
We can ride out
We can run away
We can go deep sea
We can go out of space
I don't want to spend my whole life
Stuck in the same place
The clock goes tick tock
As we run out of faith
I just wanna be great (Oooooh)
I just wanna be great (Ooooh)
Nothing can stop us now
Nothing can hold us down
Nothing can stop us now
Nothing can hold us down
I just wanna be great (Oooooh)
I just wanna be great (Ooooh)
Nothing can stop us now
Nothing can hold us down
Nothing can stop us now
Nothing can hold us down
My mind state is up to par
I ain't losing one marble up out the jar
I should walk through the penitentiary
As I release these bars
Know they praying to heaven
Like they wishing on a star
I'm living proof the heaven hears us
So well that it must be near us
When they tell you death is coming
Just remind them that it fears us
I know that we gonna make it
Better yet recreate it
Big ups to the ones who didn't have
But had enough passion to pave it
