I can do whatever I try
I can't life pass me by
It's okay to say no
If you wanna make it then ya gotta say go

[Chorus:]

Can't let life pass me by
You can make it if you try
Hold your head up high
You might touch the sky
Can't let life pass me by
You can make it if you try
Hold your head up high
You might touch the sky

Look in the sky you know where it came from?
Plenty of stars and the moon we only got one
Me and you is all we have shawty
We all human so we people shawty
God made adam then He made eve
Plenty of apples fell from the tree
Can't forget about the birds and the bees
God's the one that built the seas
From our parents came you and me
Now you can be what you wanna be

It's time to make the right move
You can be smart in school
All you gotta do is study shawty
Troublemakers ain't your buddies shawty
Stay focused say no to drugs
Respect your elders show them love

[Chorus]

I could be a doctor I could be a lawyer
I could be the next Michael Jordan or Vince Carter
I could be a teacher 'cause I love to read
I could be a fireman or a police
I wanna be a scientist and save the world
Or I can be a veterinarian and study squirrels
I could be the president just need your vote
Too many kids dying we just need your support
I could be like Master P and own my own business
And operator or a technician
I like airplanes I could be a pilot
I wanna be a dentist I would go to college
Or I could be on TV like a superstar
Or I could be a mechanic and fix cars
I could be an astronaut and fly to the moon
I always gonna be me, you gonna be you

[Chorus 3x]
