Yours (feat. Slick Rick & Common)

Hey, say Y-O (Y-O)
Say U-N (U-N)
Say G-W (G-W)
Say O-R (O-R)
Say L-D (L-D)
What that spell? (Young world)
What that spell? (Young world)

Hey, young world
Get it all today young world
Have a say young world
Don't be the boss till you play young world
Find your way young world
Don't be led astray young world
My style a bit cliché young world (young world, young world)
But the world is yours (young wo-o-o-o-orld)
The world is yours (young wo-o-o-o-orld)

Who's living the best life?
Got the answers to the world on the test right
Holding up a score for all to see
Understand that there will be those you lose when you no longer feel lost
Those you choose when you understand the cost
Optional like sauce
Still we pour it on
Got a tap on that self esteem saying: The world is yours
The future tastes good, serve it on a plate
And when it tastes bad, tapestry of fate
And some of y'all, stop it
With your wallet sized agenda to end up in somebody else pockets
Use your own self for the win
Treat failure like a love affair that you need to end
Turn your life around
Read the contents in the package
Active ingredient be the world is yours
Even though the emojis make you out
To be misfits going down the wrong route
Don't focus on the fuss
And know we were young ones to the ones before us
Just try to gain what you couldn't get
But respect the names who had the groundwork set
And there's no forever young section
So make sure the life you live aids you to perfection

Hey, young world
Get it all today young world
Have a say young world
Don't be the boss till you play young world
Find your way young world
Don't be led astray young world
My style a bit cliché young world (young world, young world)
But the world is yours (young wo-o-o-o-orld)
The world is yours (young wo-o-o-o-orld)

From oceans of openness, I progress
To the nation of the young world, I say God bless
'Cause of my love for you I never stop my quest
Plenties' of belief that I watch harvest
Coming of age, but age can't hold hostage
It's relationship with truth
Gotta stay monogamous
Living just enough for the metropolis, I'm an optimist
My binoculars, I know God is watching us (the world is yours)
Though the world try to make the young homogenous
It's purity in your aquinas
Sometimes you feel like a fatherless child trying to make mama proud
They say actions speak, so you live out loud
Endowed by followers in search of new leaders
The world will try to do you like the way they did Jesus
And there's no forever young section
So make sure the life you live
Aids you to perfection

Hey, young world
Get it all today young world
Have a say young world
Don't be the boss till you play young world
Find your way young world
Don't be led astray young world
My style a bit cliché young world (young world, young world)
But the world is yours (young wo-o-o-o-orld)
The world is yours (young wo-o-o-o-orld)

Lifeline
These are lines in our hands
Are they muted?
I mean, these are supposed to be the lines that hold the length of our lives
Kept quiet to not reveal to us the answer on how we may leave here
If so, it would be understandable
Because if we place too much focus on how we are going to die
Then how would we even live?
