[Bongi and Collin (IN ZULU)]
I got so much pride inside
Everything I try
I know is possible
Every single tear I’ve cried
It’s motivation
I feel I’m closer
Closer to my goal
Yeah you’re closer than you’ve ever been
If you tired of waiting, Aye let this be your medicine
A shot of motivation cuz they don’t got pills for passion
Things look different once you take action
A voice for the voiceless
A light in the dark
A guide for the blind man
A shelter in the storm
Opposite what’s expected
Left of the norm
Hope resurrected
Once again it’s on
It’s either tear drops
Or drips of sweat
Fears and regret
Or cheers and success
Grindin’ till you feel that you’re near to your death...
Or livin life on a prayer just trying to deal with the stress
Expectin’ what’s best
Or acceptin’ what's left
lnvestin’ in self
Or workin’ for someone else
Complainin’ ‘bout the game
Or dealing with what was dealt
Becoming numb to life...
Or make them feel what you felt
[Bongi and Collin (IN ZULU)]
I got so much pride inside
Everything I try
I know is possible
Every single tear I’ve cried
It’s motivation
I feel I’m closer
Closer to my goal
Yeah you’re closer than you’ve ever been
If you’re tired of waiting, Aye let this your medicine
A shot of motivation cuz they don’t got pills for passion
Things look different once you take action
To my brothers in Africa
To my sisters in Spain
To my family in the Philippines
We’ve all seen the same thangs
We’ve all see the same pain
We all bleed the same blood
We are global citizens
We all need the same love
You can lay it all on the line
With your heart right there on your sleeve
You’re only gonna achieve what you dare to believe
It ain’t gon’ be easy, they’ll be there to deceive
I want what’s mine, I don’t need nobody sharing with me
You can feed off the lies or sow your seed of faith
Practice patience or waste time makin’ moves in haste
You can talk about it or let’em see it in your face
You can taste the sweetness of victory or eat sour grapes
[Bongi and Collin (IN ZULU)]
I got so much pride inside
Everything I try
I know is possible
Every single tear I’ve cried
It’s motivation
I feel I’m closer
Closer to my goal
Yeah you’re closer than you’ve ever been
If you’re tired of waiting, Aye let this your medicine
A shot of motivation cuz they don’t got pills for passion
Things look different once you take action
