The Morning - Funky DL

Intro Chorus

I don’t know bout' you but

I gotta' pick my shoes up

I gotta' pick my tools up

I gotta' make moves in the morning

In the morning (x7)

Verse One

I came so close to quitting

But when I look back to the words I’ve written

The same words I’ve been spitting for so long

I knew that giving up would be so wrong

I’m strong, that’s what I gotta' be spiritually

In my soul, in my mind mentally and physically

Guarantee my positive moves are made visibly

I was never brought on this earth to live miserably

So I made my own decisions

And had my own vision executed with precision

To make music and get y’all to listen

I committed to it stuck to the mission

Then I arrived at a place

Where I watched no face and I left no trace

Of underperforming, slacking or stalling

It doesn’t end here, I’ll see you in the morning, the morning

I don’t know bout' you but

I gotta' pick my shoes up

I gotta' pick my tools up

I gotta' make moves in the morning (clap)

(x7) in the morning (clap)

Verse Two

To the Most High I gotta' show gratitude

For those who did me wrong I ain’t' mad at you

It’s just I had to change up my attitude

And get much closer to the things that really matter dude

Now I have a much better latitude

Better situations and all the things that, that includes

Taking advantage of the assets that I haven’t used

To bring you all the kind of sound that really dazzles you

And put it on cycle mode

And incorporate all the things I’m told

And always step with a step that’s bold

And that’s my way till the day I’m old

Cos my words ain’t' made for ignoring

And life wasn’t made to be boring

And man was not created to be warring

Just to work hard so I’ll see you in the morning, the morning

Verse Three

Yo, life’s hard lets face it

But it wasn’t meant to be basic or meant to be wasted

So if you need to give yours a facelift

Do it but understand you gotta' have patience

And if you think by doing the bare minimum

Everything you’ve worked for will pay off in dividends (no way)

You’re wrong and need clarification

Yo you gotta' go beyond your expectations

And when you did that go beyond that

Cos you get out what you put in that’s a fact

So if you desire sotin' go for it

Work hard then work some mo' for it

Try your best to save a little doe for it

Teach yourself the things you need to know for it

(yeah) and this really ain’t' a warning

All I’m trying to say is be ready for the morning, the morning
