My Shot |
I am not throwing away my shot |
I am not throwing away my shot |
Hey yo, I’m just like my country |
I’m young, scrappy and hungry |
And I’m not throwing away my shot |
I’m ‘a get a scholarship to King’s College |
I prob’ly shouldn’t brag, but dag, I amaze and astonish |
The problem is I got a lot of brains but no polish |
I gotta holler just to be heard |
With every word, I drop knowledge |
Every burden, every disadvantage |
I have learned to manage, I don’t have a gun to brandish |
I walk these streets famished |
The plan is to fan this spark into a flame |
But damn, it’s getting dark, so let me spell out the name |
I am the A-L-E-X-A-N-D-E-R we are meant to be. |
A colony that runs independently |
Meanwhile, Britain keeps shittin' on us endlessly. |
I am not throwing away my shot |
I am not throwing away my shot |
Hey yo, I’m just like my country |
I’m young, scrappy and hungry |
And I’m not throwing away my shot |
It’s time to take a shot |
I dream of life without a monarchy |
The unrest in France will lead to onarchy? |
Onarchy how you say, how you say, anarchy? |
When I fight, I make the other side panicky. |
shot. |
Geniuses, lower your voices |
You keep out of trouble and you double your choices |
I’m with you, but the situation is fraught |
You’ve got to be carefully taught |
If you talk, you’re gonna get shot. |
I am not throwing away my shot |
I am not throwing away my shot |
Hey yo, I’m just like my country |
I’m young, scrappy and hungry |
And I’m not throwing away my shot. |
Come on, let’s go |
Rise up |
When you’re living on your knees, you rise up |
Tell your brother that he’s gotta rise up |
Tell your sister that she’s gotta rise up |
When are these colonies gonna rise up? |
When are these colonies gonna rise up? |
When are these colonies gonna rise up? |
When are these colonies gonna rise up? |
Rise up |
I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory |
When’s it gonna get me? |
In my sleep, seven feet ahead of me? |
If I see it comin', do I run or do I let it be? |
Is it like a beat without a melody? |
I’m past patiently waitin' I’m passionatelymashin' every expectation |
Every action’s an act of creation |
I’m laughin' in the face of casualties and sorrow |
For the first time, I’m thinkin' past tomorrow. |
I am not throwing away my shot |
I am not throwing away my shot |
Hey yo, I’m just like my country |
I’m young, scrappy and hungry |
And I’m not throwing away my shot. |
Rise up, rise up, it’s time to take a shot |
Rise up, it’s time to take a shot |
Rise up, take a shot, shot, shot |
It’s time to take a shot, time to take a shot |
And I am not throwing away my shot |
Not throwing away my shot |
