(Chorus)
I look 'em dead in the face and tell 'em it's alright, it's okay
Non-believers I don't care what you say because its my life I'mma do it my way
You should know that it's alright, it's okay
And if you believe and you know it, it will be alright..alright
(Verse 1)
When I was younger I use to dream hard
Figured that one day I was gonna be a star
Others didn't believe me, I told 'em who cares
So I took my bags and threw away my fears
Threw away the stress cause I don't have the time
Cause my main focus is just going for mine
I'm next in line for my moment to shine
Keep my head to the sky and I will be fine
If you feel me put your hands up
If you are somebody put you're hands up
If you ever hear somebody tell you otherwise
Then just look at the person right through they're eyes (and say)
(Chorus)
I look 'em dead in the face and tell 'em it's alright, it's okay
Non-believers I don't care what you say because its my life I'mma do it my way
You should know that it's alright, it's okay
And if you believe and you know it, it will be alright..alright
(Verse 2)
Reaching my goals is my number one option
Yeah I got these haters on the sideline watching
Shining like a star and the light is so bright
Got these haters blind sided man I hope they're alright
People be asking why you choosing to rap
Why don't you wanna do this, why don't you wanna do that
Since when did you decide you was telling me what I'm gonna be
I don't need the negativity but certainly
I'mma get mines you better get yours
If you got the keys then open the door
To what this life may have in store
If you can't ignore the doubters (then tell 'em this)
(Chorus)
I look 'em dead in the face and tell 'em it's alright, it's okay
Non-believers I don't care what you say because its my life I'mma do it my way
You should know that it's alright, it's okay
And if you believe and you know it, it will be alright..alright
(Verse 3)
This here is something to remind ya
That many people will come and try to blind ya
All you got to do is stay smart
And whatever you do just do it from the heart
And uh if you feel me put your hands up
If you are somebody put you're hands up
If you ever hear somebody tell you otherwise
Then just look at the person right through they're eyes (and say)
(Chorus)
I look 'em dead in the face and tell 'em it's alright, it's okay
Non-believers I don't care what you say because its my life I'mma do it my way
You should know that it's alright, it's okay
And if you believe and you know it, it will be alright..alright
