When they come out
All my life, I wanted to do good
Wanted to be good, wanted to feel free
Of a history that made me cry
And stumped my stride, so I changed my mind
I doubled down on believing that the opinions of other people
Couldn't light my light, nor deter my sight
(Nor wrong my rights)
Nor guide my life, or delay my flight
I'm flying high now up above on the clarity of love
I only get what I put into it
I spend my sweet time where I deem fit
I got one life, I'ma let my glow show, baby, look at this
The embodiment of soul glow, I admit
Paint my own pictures, gifts on gifts on gifts
Let the load lift, let the words shift
I ain't here to live in fear or just plain ol' exist

I'ma go 'head and be great, why not?
I'ma go 'head and be great, why not?
What you listenin' to them for?
Born to soar, born to be more
Let them keep score if they need to
I'ma go 'head and be great, why not?
Ooh, this road be high and low, write honestly as I go
Ain't nothing owed to me, far as I can see
Stay grateful and faithful for everything on my table
I goes high 'cause I'm able
Fables of love, some say of me (please)
I was there in entirety
Got hurt sometimes, Chile, that's the way it be
I won't give up on love and never on me (never)

See, what I'm about to do is I'ma walk in this room
And I'm gonna let them see God, Jehovah's will all over me
And there ain't nothing they can do about it, baby

I'ma go 'head and be great, why not?
I'ma go 'head and be great, why not?
What you listenin' to them for?
Born to soar, born to be more
Let them keep score if they need to
I'ma, I'ma go 'head and be great, why not?
(Why not? Why not? Why not?)

I'ma go 'head and be great
I'ma, I'ma
