What do you see when look at me and I'm just standing there? |
|
Shit, that make the world all work, that's what in my blood |
|
And I won't stop until I drop 'cause my life's just burning out |
|
So walk, keep climbing, won't look down until I reach the top |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
A little boy from Chicago had dreams to be a star |
|
And make a way and get some pay and drive a fancy car |
|
Though his mama used to say to him, "Hey boy, just go school" |
|
But whether it was old or new in school he broke the rules |
|
What do you see when look at me and I'm just standing there? |
|
Shit, that make the world all work, that's what in my blood |
|
And I won't stop until I drop 'cause my life's just burning out |
|
So walk, keep climbing, won't look down until I reach the top |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
Now his whole life he told his boys, "Hey y'all, I'm going to rap" |
|
So when he got a rap contract, it wasn't no turning back |
|
Now his mama she would say to him |
|
"You need to get, get back in school" |
|
And all the trash that the peoples say he was using it for fuel |
|
What do you see when look at me and I'm just standing there? |
|
Shit, that make the world all work, that's what in my blood |
|
And I won't stop until I drop 'cause my life's just burning out |
|
So walk, keep climbing, won't look down until I reach the top |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
And the story goes on and on, it goes on and on and on |
|
They say, "Hey boy, you rap real good but ain't making no hit songs" |
|
So he'd tell himself, yo, yo, yo self you gotta do it the way you do |
|
And make this music from your soul and make it fresh and new |
|
What do you see when look at me and I'm just standing there? |
|
Shit, that make the world all work, that's what in my blood |
|
And I won't stop until I drop 'cause my life's just burning out |
|
So walk, keep climbing, won't look down until I reach the top |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
Then the game, it started to change |
|
They say music just ain't the same |
|
Though he remained the song he is sang |
|
Just keep your drive, stay in your lane |
|
Inch by inch the people came |
|
They started to know his name and say you do your thang |
|
Now the whole, whole world singing his song |
|
From Chicago a star it born, wow |
|
What do you see when look at me and I'm just standing there? |
|
Shit, that make the world all work, that's what in my blood |
|
And I won't stop until I drop 'cause my life's just burning out |
|
So walk, keep climbing, won't look down until I reach the top |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
|
What a world, what a world |
