Lyrics Best Thing I Can Be - Terrace Martin, Problem

Best Thing I Can Be

I’m just trying to stay focus,
I’m just trying to stay focused (stay focused)
I’m just trying to be useful, the best me that I can be!
(So I) keep, keep, keep moving
I keep it moving!
(It's no other way so).
I just do it
(It's no other way so).
I just do it
Till I die I’mma try to be (the best thing that I can be)
See, I’m my environment
Moms worked hard, she was having…
pops did too, like every day!
He loves sniffing coke and Mary J
But nevertheless I grew up in the happy home
I had no idea that it was the ghetto till I damn grown
And even though I’m sometimes struggle, but I’m almost on
I put my life, my blood in tears, all in this microphone!
Hated my heart, I let it fade out
Soaked up a little game, I found my way out
They say crime pay, but I pay, take the safe round
Pray God pardons mistakes cause the pains now!
.getting my piece of the pot…
With street life the music came by
…that I survive, with my neighbourhood mine
But I’m already gone!
I was trying to find my flags in this world
I was trying to go beyond what I know
I was trying to stay focused
I’m just trying to stay focused
I’m just trying to be useful, the best me that I can be!
(So I) keep, keep, keep moving
I keep it moving!
(It's no other way so).
I just do it
(It's no other way so).
I just do it
Till I die I’mma try to be
(the best thing that I can be)
I won’t let 'em no
I ain’t gonna let 'em, no
I won’t let 'em no
I ain’t gonna let 'em, no
Bring me down!
I’ll be a damn fool for that
I’m too blessed, too dope, too cool for that
I’ve been through a lot, I didn’t see it all
I keep flying, I ain’t coming down!
And I ain’t tripping, no, I ain’t tripping!
It’s no other way, so I just do it
It’s no other way, so I just do it
Till I die, I’mma try to face…
The best man that I can be, yeah!
