[Hook - Repeat 2x]They say we ain't equal, that's true, we're not,Still, we shine bright in the lane we got.Don’t beg to be seen in a game that's rigged,Build your own world, make your purpose big. Quit underestimating what you can doFocus more on yourself, nobody else,[Soulful Singing]Just be the best you, Be the best you... [Verse 1] I don't argue with the past, I just learn from the pain, I see truth from a distance, won't drown in the rain. Everybody got a lens, what they see ain't mine, We could stand in the same place and see diff signs. History gets twisted, power shifts with the pen, So I take it all in, but don't sink in the trend. They say "They did this," man, that gives 'em the crown, Why repeat that script just to feel more down? Nah, I ain't powerless, I'm rich with soul, A king in my mind, not chasing control. Equality? Nah, I ain't beggin' a seat, I build my own table, let my own heart beat. We ain’t the same, and that’s just real, But different don’t mean less — know your own appeal. Men ain’t women, Blacks ain't whites, But we all got power if we live our rights.[Hook - Repeat 2x]They say we ain't equal, that's true, we're not,Still, we shine bright in the lane we got.Don’t beg to be seen in a game that's rigged,Build your own world, make your purpose big. Quit underestimating what you can doFocus more on yourself, nobody else,[Soulful Singing]Just be the best you, Be the best you... [Verse 2] Women cryin’ foul, sayin’ “That ain’t fair,” But still tryin’ to run in a man’s affair. Trans in the space, now the lines get blurred, But when it’s reversed, it’s a whole new word. Truth is — we different, and that’s okay, Tryin’ to be the same just fades the flame away. Same with race — we been knockin' that door, Tryin’ to get in when we should build more. We ain’t gotta fit in their rules, their plan, Let’s grow our own crops, feed our own land. Inclusion’s the chase, not always equality, People want access, not identity. It’s about who’s got the ball, who’s callin’ the play, And folks wanna win, not just have a say. It’s deeper than rights, it's pride and fear, But the best version of you is already here.[Hook - Repeat 2x]They say we ain't equal, that's true, we're not,Still, we shine bright in the lane we got.Don’t beg to be seen in a game that's rigged,Build your own world, make your purpose big. Quit underestimating what you can doFocus more on yourself, nobody else,[Soulful Singing]Just be the best you, Be the best you... [Verse 3] You ain't less for being left off they list, You just too bold for the box they twist. I don’t dwell on pain, I don’t beg for change, I shift my mind and expand my range. It’s mental, spiritual, owning your lane, Not cryin’ for seats in somebody else’s game. Power’s perception, and they use that well, But when you see truth, you break that spell. Be the coach, not just a player in need, Plant your seeds, let your own soul lead. I see Black folks chase that white man’s nod, When we the gods that they copy and rob. Same with sisters chasin' brotherhood fame, But you the flame, not just part of the game. Don’t chase inclusion, just rise and grow, Be the best you, let the system know.[Hook - Repeat 4x]They say we ain't equal, that's true, we're not,Still, we shine bright in the lane we got.Don’t beg to be seen in a game that's rigged,Build your own world, make your purpose big. Quit underestimating what you can doFocus more on yourself, nobody else,[Soulful Singing]Just be the best you, Be the best you...
