letra de stay the course - illogic

stay the course
stay the course
stay the course
ya gotta stay the course

[verse 1]
awkward kid about 13 before he noticed
everyone around him wasn’t focused
growing hopeless but continue to dive his head in the books
motivated everyday by how his neighborhood looked plus his j was off the hook
but he wasn’t much of a sports fan
raised by both parents unlike most of his friends
and they were struggling, pops laid off
moms would part-time bartend to meet ends, his mind spins
the unemployment ain’t enough
barely keeping all their heads above water
government -ssistance not an option, pops too proud
searched the want-ads daily, providing for the family’s on the shoulders of the father
bothers him to his core, knew that he wanted more
aced his cl-sses, saw it as his only escape
knew his pops did the best he could, just finished third grade
but always told him education’s the way
just stay the course

[hook]
do what you gotta do
if you got faith in your moves, then it’s nothing new
stay the course
be who you wanna be
whether teacher, artist or super emcee
stay the course

do what you gotta do
if you got faith in your moves, then it’s nothing new
just stay the course
be who you wanna be
whether teacher, artist or super emcee
stay the course

[verse 2]
awkward kid about 13 before she noticed
everyone around her wasn’t focused
growing hopeless but continued to dive her head in the books
motivated everyday by how her neighborhood looked plus her art was off the hook
and she would draw all of the kids playing
single mother, no father just like most of her friends
and they were struggling, moms held down two gigs
15-hour days, raising two kids, her mind spins
seeing mother seeming superhero-esque
started painting a future that accepts nothing less
brushstrokes of hope and prayer were plentiful
encouraged growth into an individual but seeing mom’s pain, it bothered her to her core
knew that she wanted more
aced her cl-sses and cried buckets of paint
knew her mother did the best she could, no ged
but always told her that your p-ssion’s the way
just stay the course

[hook]
do what you gotta do
if you got faith in your moves, then it’s nothing new
stay the course
be who you wanna be
whether teacher, artist or super emcee
gotta stay the course

do what you gotta do
if you got faith in your moves, then it’s nothing new
just stay the course
be who you wanna be
whether teacher, artist or super emcee
ya gotta stay the course

do what you gotta do
