lyrics

VERSE ONE / Yo, I wanna see if you identify with the things that I be thinking bout that dwell in my mind, the majority of people often hit hard times and we cannot see the future cos to that we are blind but when we making errors and we know it's a crime to ourselves, there comes a time we have to redefine and think about the places we been to, the roads that we have walked, experiences we've been through, the people that we've met and how many of them have been true, then we see we owe ourselves much more, more than we are getting, more than we had before, We treat so many things as if they only a chore and we don't realize what's right in front of our eyes, we can turn it all around and live these beautiful lives, all we need to do is smarten up and follow the wise, so many times in life we get things wrong, that's why I had to make this beat and represent on this song to put your mind in tact and let you know it's a fact / CHORUS / You gotta focus, just focus, that's why I wrote this, focus, just focus, that's why I wrote this / VERSE TWO / They say it's easier said than done but it's easier done than be the suffering one and things easily go when they easily come some of us work hard, some of us thank God, some of us don't even care because we mentally scarred, most of us are getting caught in life by dropping our guard, the older we become its like we gotta progress and though we know more we act like we know less, I wish that I could tell you, you could live with no stress, we should be talking revolutions, evolution not resolutions, can't wait just to the end of the year, to decide I'm gonna think about a new idea, to decide I'm gonna try and make my whole life clear, to decide I've had enough and now its time to care, so many times in life we get things wrong, that's why I had to make this beat and represent on this song, to put your mind in tact and let you know it's a fact / CHORUS / You gotta focus, just focus, focus, that's why I wrote this, focus, just focus.
