Focus on Your Strengths |
| Point guard in high school I had the breakaway |
| I went up for the one hand dunk and felt my pride fade away |
| I jumped and got blocked by the rim and fell on my back |
| It was a home game I heard my whole city laugh |
| Coach subbed me out and said why didn’t you pull up for a jumper? |
| You’re 90 Pounds when wet, Chris, you’re not a dunker |
| Coach put me back in, I used the screen and drained the three |
| Focus on your strengths is something he ingrained in me |
| I was in a metal band a rock band but always wanted to rap |
| Awareness gave me beats and a mic and said focus on that |
| I’ve never been a screamer, I’ve never been a singer |
| But I can write a poem from the eyes of a dreamer |
| I’m not a rich rapper, sipping rose on a yacht rapper |
| I’m a niche rapper, talking bout how depression I got rapper |
| When I stopped trying to be everything I rose up the ranks |
| Know yourself and focus on your strengths |
| Yo Chris, I was just calling, I was hoping y’all was busy and couldn’t answer |
| Made me feel good that my guys was hanging out and doing things together |
| You know, I was calling to see if y’all was going to stop by |
| When you finished your work tonight, you know so call anytime |
| Give me a shout back, love you, peace |
| I remember when we first got autotune we tried to make a club song |
| We tried to make a pop hit, a gun love and drug song |
| I showed it to pops, he laughed and said this is not you |
| This is sell out shit, the game got you and bought you |
| He said if you conform it’s fake as plastic trees |
| If the radios on your head that sounds like a disaster to me |
| One hit wonders pop then disappear from the charts |
| If you’re authentic you’re timeless and always in someone’s heart |
| He said you need to audit yourself and double down on your positives |
| You’re a natural story teller and journalist with a lot to give |
| Last sold out show we opened for Talib Kweli |
| We went back to our roots AwareNess was on the keys |
| We took it back to the basement freestyling words from the crowd |
| My dad was there plus I could feel pops looking down and proud |
| When I stopped trying to be everything I rose up the ranks |
| Know yourself and focus on your strengths |
