Unique
The old me died, so the new me could live [Writin' the most-?]songs before I fall off the bridge Got t' loosen up my heart, not tighten my grip What's the chances you was born, that you even exist?
Got t' think about it twice, like a knife to the wrist Some people givin' up fast, I choose to persist Thank God everyday, don't take for granted the gift Like a bird in the cage, 'fore its wings got clipped
Though I'm walkin' on the edge, a boy cannot slip Won't leave out the house without your gun and your clip Well you better, recognize some of you are what you resist Does the love truth aloud, like you talk with a lisp?
How you [concept-?]of gang, like the bloods and the crypts Maybe you don't dress the same as the rest of the kids Well look, it don't matter as long as you love you Who are you to judge yourself, as long as you know truth
I said listen, listen You ain't got t' be the same as everybody else You can be different, different You ain't got t' drive a car, or have a lot of wealth
You can be significant, significant It don't matter where you live, it's how you love yourself As long as you [...?] You are unique as you choose to be
Some people grow up in the 'burbs, some live in the block Some start flippin' birds, some turn into jocks Some learn to fall asleep when they hearin' them shots Some pack a brown bag with a sandwich and Motts
It's a whole different world when you're facing the clock Starin' at the rear-view when you listen to pop Hustled all summer long just to get 'em and drop Livin' off the trust funds that was given by pops
Either way, everybody got secretive spots Skeletons in they closets that believe in them nots In your chest, in your throat, that be turnin' the clocks When you try to go to school and say you're somethin' you're not
Never knew you was a thief until your butt got caught All alone, by yourself, now you're feelin' distraught Well look, it don't matter as long as you love you Who are you to judge yourself, long as you know truth
I said listen, listen You ain't got t' be the same as everybody else You can be different, different You ain't got t' drive a car, or have a lot of wealth
You can be significant, significant It don't matter where you live, it's how you love yourself As long as you [...?] You are unique as you choose to be
It was a long walk home, but you got t' the door With your heart held high, but your head tipped low Saw your mom creep up like she already know Good thing you saw her, 'cause your pop might blow
All yearn deep inside for our parents to show A little bit of love to us 'til we feel that glow Smell momma's good food cookin' up on the stove Soon took of your shoes and began that stroll
Everybody takes chances, so make that roll We all learn from mistakes and got t' pay that toll I ain't never met somebody that can pave that road Without working hard for it to achieve that goal
Like trying to make a diamond from squeezing the coal After all is said and done, it's a sight to behold Well look, it don't matter as long as you love you Who are you to judge yourself, long as you know truth
I said listen, listen You ain't got t' be the same as everybody else You can be different, different You ain't got t' drive a car, or have a lot of wealth
You can be significant, significant It don't matter where you live, it's how you love yourself As long as you [...?] You are unique as you choose to be
I said everybody listen You ain't got t' be the same as everybody else You can be different, different You ain't got t' drive a car, or have a lot of wealth
You can be significant, significant It don't matter where you live, it's how you love yourself As long as you [...?] You are unique as you choose to be
You are unique as you choose to be You are unique as you choose to be You are unique as you choose to be You are unique as you choose to be
You are unique as you choose to be You are unique as you choose to be You are unique as you choose to be You are, we are, everybody listen
'cause everybody's different We all are different In our own unique way And that's what makes us all so special and beautiful
