Unique
The old me died, so the new me could live
[Writin' the most-?]songs before I fall off the bridge
Got t' loosen up my heart, not tighten my grip
What's the chances you was born, that you even exist?
Got t' think about it twice, like a knife to the wrist
Some people givin' up fast, I choose to persist
Thank God everyday, don't take for granted the gift
Like a bird in the cage, 'fore its wings got clipped
Though I'm walkin' on the edge, a boy cannot slip
Won't leave out the house without your gun and your clip
Well you better, recognize some of you are what you resist
Does the love truth aloud, like you talk with a lisp?
How you [concept-?]of gang, like the bloods and the crypts
Maybe you don't dress the same as the rest of the kids
Well look, it don't matter as long as you love you
Who are you to judge yourself, as long as you know truth
I said listen, listen
You ain't got t' be the same as everybody else
You can be different, different
You ain't got t' drive a car, or have a lot of wealth
You can be significant, significant
It don't matter where you live, it's how you love yourself
As long as you [...?]
You are unique as you choose to be
Some people grow up in the 'burbs, some live in the block
Some start flippin' birds, some turn into jocks
Some learn to fall asleep when they hearin' them shots
Some pack a brown bag with a sandwich and Motts
It's a whole different world when you're facing the clock
Starin' at the rear-view when you listen to pop
Hustled all summer long just to get 'em and drop
Livin' off the trust funds that was given by pops
Either way, everybody got secretive spots
Skeletons in they closets that believe in them nots
In your chest, in your throat, that be turnin' the clocks
When you try to go to school and say you're somethin' you're not
Never knew you was a thief until your butt got caught
All alone, by yourself, now you're feelin' distraught
Well look, it don't matter as long as you love you
Who are you to judge yourself, long as you know truth
I said listen, listen
You ain't got t' be the same as everybody else
You can be different, different
You ain't got t' drive a car, or have a lot of wealth
You can be significant, significant
It don't matter where you live, it's how you love yourself
As long as you [...?]
You are unique as you choose to be
It was a long walk home, but you got t' the door
With your heart held high, but your head tipped low
Saw your mom creep up like she already know
Good thing you saw her, 'cause your pop might blow
All yearn deep inside for our parents to show
A little bit of love to us 'til we feel that glow
Smell momma's good food cookin' up on the stove
Soon took of your shoes and began that stroll
Everybody takes chances, so make that roll
We all learn from mistakes and got t' pay that toll
I ain't never met somebody that can pave that road
Without working hard for it to achieve that goal
Like trying to make a diamond from squeezing the coal
After all is said and done, it's a sight to behold
Well look, it don't matter as long as you love you
Who are you to judge yourself, long as you know truth
I said listen, listen
You ain't got t' be the same as everybody else
You can be different, different
You ain't got t' drive a car, or have a lot of wealth
You can be significant, significant
It don't matter where you live, it's how you love yourself
As long as you [...?]
You are unique as you choose to be
I said everybody listen
You ain't got t' be the same as everybody else
You can be different, different
You ain't got t' drive a car, or have a lot of wealth
You can be significant, significant
It don't matter where you live, it's how you love yourself
As long as you [...?]
You are unique as you choose to be
You are unique as you choose to be
You are unique as you choose to be
You are unique as you choose to be
You are unique as you choose to be
You are unique as you choose to be
You are unique as you choose to be
You are unique as you choose to be
You are, we are, everybody listen
'cause everybody's different
We all are different
In our own unique way
And that's what makes us all so special and beautiful
