Manny Martinez - Playing My Part (feat. Reign Royal)

While the other kids went out and hit the streets
I stayed in my room writing lyrics to conquer these beats
And I put em on repeat until my pencil disappeared or my wrist went weak
Filling notebooks in all my classes
Dreaming about ruling the masses
As time went on it became something more for me
With every stroke of the pencil pain and frustration released
On paper I could be whatever I wanted to be
Then I started working to make it reality
I'd rather stay in and work on my craft
Y'all can have the yacht, I'll take the raft
I don't do this for the riches
Long as I have food on my table and water to drink
Y'all can have the genie, I don't need any wishes
The Lord is my provider He won't let me sink
And as far as I can see, no telescope needed to look at what's ahead of me
My future is bright because He promised
It ain't an easy walk, but I know that He got us
Like a good neighbor the Lord is here
No insurance, but He insures us
Every single worry will disappear
So I keep His word near
Near to my heart
Stay lit in my faith
That's why there's fire in my art
I promise I'm not here for the moment
I'm in it for the long run
And Ima keep playing my part
Until the Lord says that I'm done
I promise I'm not here for the moment
I'm in it for the long run
And Ima keep playing my part
Until the Lord says that I'm done
I ain't tryna make it to the top
Just tryna share some healing cause the wicked never stop
Blessed we are to open our eyes to live another day
I live to my fullest todos los dias til I pass away
Like a W, I go through ups and downs too como tu
But the difference is every moment good or bad I count as a W
And when it comes to my goals I work double, you
Ain't no ceasing in this season so I'm seizing my time
He gastado mucho tiempo being reckless and blind
Show me patience as I work on my heart
Whether I'm moving or I'm posted, I'm not alone
God is here when everything fall apart
Cuando lejos estoy, He guides me home
Will we live to see tomorrow
We don't know
Shouldn't ponder in a daydream full of sorrow
Let it go
Lord keep us under Your watch forever
I just hope our trust in You will never sever
Todo lo que me a pasado me a mejorado
Un mejor padre, mejor esposo, hijo y hermano
El hombre que soy hoy sigue avansando
No tengo planes de rendirme
Por vida sigo peliando
I promise I'm not here for the moment
I'm in it for the long run
And Ima keep playing my part
Until the Lord says that I'm done
I promise I'm not here for the moment
I'm in it for the long run
And Ima keep playing my part
Until the Lord says that I'm done
And I'm in
And I'm in
I'm in it for the long run
I'm in it for the long run
And Ima keep playing
My part
For the kingdom
Yeah
