[Intro]
Now you got the Gift you better use it right
Don't never let nobody here tell you otherwise
You wanna be successful, you gotta really fight
Never never let nobody here dictate…
[Chorus]
Now you got the Gift you better use it right
Don’t never let nobody here tell you otherwise
You wanna be successful, you gotta really fight
Never never let nobody here dictate your life
See now you got the Gift you better use it right
Don't let nobody here tell you otherwise
You wanna be successful, you gotta really fight
Never never let nobody here tell you other wise
[Verse 1]
Yo, huh, check see
Young boy moving through an abyss filled with darkness
Saw a bit of shiny shit, reeling in the lockness
That seemed like a gift, well look at what he did
He took a right turn here we have a black king
This is the freedom of the mind slave, run away and stay great
Success on your mind find a gold mine and shine great
Errbody wanna be the best but ain't working see
Give the people what you got, don’t live in selfishness
About time to be second to nobody and I mean it (minute)
The future ain't clear, too bright for you see it
If you don't play the game, you don't stand a chance to win it
Get up your big feet size 48 should fit in
Your priorities so lost going after the wrong things
Road to enjoyment bad directions from the pale fiends
Wise man told me Nigerians got the gift
The chains in our mind never let us be the king though
[Chorus]
Now you got the Gift you better use it right
Don't never let nobody here tell you otherwise
You wanna be successful, you gotta really fight
Never never let nobody here dictate your life
See now you got the Gift you better use it right
Don't let nobody here tell you otherwise
You wanna be successful, you gotta really fight
Never never let nobody here tell you other wise
[Verse 2]
Young black and gifted still I never got here easy
Wasted my time with things that don't pay now I'm begging
I went through a phase that would make me realise
Errthang has a price and not only money would pay it
It’s the hard work that brings it, the gift there unlock it
Don’t let that mind slave tell you you ain't gonna make it
The chains on your chest fake that’s why they still sell it
You got a free will you could choose not to cop it
See what you go is incredible that in you man
You could use it in different ways to change a lot of things and
To make change you need change so first change you man
The first step is realizing you a special human
That thing about the mind slave, tells you that you're not great
Sucks a lot of confidence, bad noises like a mandrake
You lose your own heritage and start coming out fake
But deep inside your real you would save you with the great gift
[Chorus]
Now you got the Gift you better use it right
Don't never let nobody here tell you otherwise
You wanna be successful, you gotta really fight
Never never let nobody here dictate your life
See now you got the Gift you better use it right
Don't let nobody here tell you otherwise
You wanna be successful, you gotta really fight
Never never let nobody here tell you other wise
[Verse 3]
Young boy moving through an abyss filled with darkness
Saw a bit of shiny shit, reeling in the lockness
At least that’s what he learnt, we partisans to them
And no matter what we really do we'll never meet with them
This mind slave will get free someday
Till then this gift will get you through errday
Start with you and get through to everyone out there
Cause you coming from the dark side don't mean you ain't got gift
You wanna be an actor, or wanna be a rapper
Or you the one who's interested in designing a mansion
Or your brain is so dope you think about curing cancer
That gift would set your free from that mind slave you in ah
Let the fiends bring they shit, we confident we'll win
We thinking they the best but they hate that we thinking
It all boils down to one thing and that's the gift
See let it rule in your heart, let it make you man
Let it make you a woman, let it free every mind
These days I see the greatness in you everytime
So give it what you got and say a prayer everytime
Yo mind slave listen its freedom time ye heard
[Outro]
Now you got the Gift you better use it right
Don't never let nobody here tell you otherwise
You wanna be successful, you gotta really fight
Never never let nobody here dictate your life
See now you got the Gift you
