DeAundrea - Potential

I saw the potential in you
I saw the potential in you

But what good is potential if you need somebody to notice it before you see for yourself?
And where is your heart if you think that your money is the only type of wealth that you can have
What good is your pride if you'll sit back and lie and pretend like you don't need nobody else's help
What good is to act like nobody loved you when it took God Himself to love you to death
I told myself that I been sad for way too long
I'ma be happy
Got way too much on the line to be slacking
Yes, I'm on the move; I'm in big action
Had my suitcase zipped up; I was pre-packing
And I'm moving forward ain't no turning back and that's all we can do
Ain't no more recapping
Keep my tunnel vision; no more distractions
I gotta choose my protection over attraction

I see the vision in spite of my eyes
What's for me is for me so I'ma get mine
I'm on a mission yes I'm on the grind
I'm destined for greatness and that's by design
I'm destined for greatness and that's by design
I'm on a mission, I'm on the grind
I'm destined for greatness and that's by design

I see the vision in spite of my eyes
What's for me is for me so I'ma get mine
I'm on a mission yes I'm on the grind
I'm destined for greatness and that's by design
I'm destined for greatness and that's by design
I'm on a mission, I'm on the grind
I'm destined for greatness and that's by design

Ain't nothing in my past that I need cause the past is the past and
The past don't last and you can't go back and
If the last shall be first and the first shall be last
Ain't no need in competing; I'ma wait my turn
After all of that pain, after all of that work
Ain't no need in holding on; just let go of that hurt
Gotta put in that work if you want it to work and
Respect isn't given; it's earned
That's learned
Guard ya heart
Be wise; don't just be smart
It's about how you finish
Not just how you start
Please keep your trust in God and not in this world
You are more precious than pearls and don't you forget it
Before you let them in, better check them intentions
Once again, just hold onto wisdom and do not neglect your intuition

See, I see the vision in spite of my eyes
What's for me is for me so I'ma get mine
I'm on a mission yes I'm on the grind
I'm destined for greatness and that's by design
I'm destined for greatness and that's by design
I'm on a mission, I'm on the grind
I'm destined for greatness and that's by design

I see the vision in spite of my eyes
What's for me is for me so I'ma get mine
I'm on a mission yes I'm on the grind and
I'm destined for greatness and that's by design
I'm destined for greatness and that's by design
I'm on a mission, I'm on the grind
I'm destined for greatness and that's by design

Yea yea, yea yea
Destined for greatness
Aye
