Lyrics
They say Iām young
But my purpose is the inspiration of a nation innovation
āTil I change the talk into a conversation
Iām like a doctor and my patients are anxiously waiting
Healing all the hating
That faking in the paper chasinā
Itās hard to live up to these expectations that Iām facing
And gain the admiration of an older generation
Thatās why Iām pacing back and forth contemplating
Meditating how to use what Iāve been taught as a positive force
Oh! (Oh!)
This is who I am (itās all me yāall)
I wish youād understand (Iām feeling free yāall)
Itās time to set me free
My guardian angel
No! (No!)
No matter what I do (they tried to stop me)
Iām still a part of you (but they canāt stop me)
I hope youāll always be
My guardian angel
I wanna be the greatest in the world
Not for the money or the fame or the girls
Not for the car keys, or the jet skis, or the vacation to the West Indies
But simply ācause I love it
When I write Iām like a puppeteer
Pullinā my stringsā ātil the melody sings
And the honesty makes me spread my wings
Calling me out was out of your mind
Send that thought back down your spine
Iām on the grind, itās all on the line
Road sign say both ways at the same time
Most days I canāt wait to rhyme
Express my stress, elevate and shine
Progress, regress, each stepās a climb
So I take that test and I testify
Oh! (Oh!)
This is who I am (itās all me yāall)
I wish youād understand (Iām feeling free yāall)
Itās time to set me free
My guardian angel
No! (No!)
No matter what I do (they tried to stop me)
Iām still a part of you (but they canāt stop me)
I hope youāll always be
My guardian angel
I feel so misunderstood
āCause my intentions were good
If you could only see that poetry can hide in the hood
The passion in philosophy of possibilities
Every dream is in my reach
Iāll find my freedom in this beat
Follow me now, itās a brand new ground
Swallow your pride Iāll make you proud
All of my life Iāve lived out loud
We just preached to different crowds
Oh!
This is who I am
I wish youād understand
Itās time to set me free
My guardian angel
Oh! (Oh!)
This is who I am (itās all me yāall)
I wish youād understand (Iām feeling free yāall)
Itās time to set me free (Oh, itās time to set me free)
My guardian angel
No! (No!)
No matter what I do (they tried to stop me)
Iām still a part of you (but they canāt stop me)
I hope youāll always be
My guardian angel
But my purpose is the inspiration of a nation innovation
āTil I change the talk into a conversation
