Settle
Excepting things for what they are
Been in the same position
Thus far
All I have to show
Is the room for no growth
Felt like I was in a loop
Trying to throw the ball in a hoop
No need to explain
Seems like everything still the same
Steam coming through my kettle
So why continue to settle
Dont let anyone or anything (anything)
Oh yeaaaahhhh
Determine what your life can bring
Out or in
In or out
No one knows what your stories about
No need for medallions or metals
Just do not settle
You know how you do
Want greatness to represent you(you)
But are you really trying
Trying to impress
A world that's steady dying
No uplifting
Alot of crying
Lets put the pain in the past
Know that trouble will not last
Whatever you decide to do
Know that its all up to you
Dont let anyone or anything (anything)
Oh yeaaaahhhh
Determine what your life can bring
Out or in
In or out
No one knows what your stories about
No need for medallions or metals
Just do not settle
Even when times get hard
And they will
That's the time to stay still
Oh yea
No matter what you're going through
There's still time to improve
Whether in a relationship
Or on a job
You will exceed
Yes you will
You will make it
Its apart of the deal
Dont ever think
You have to accept
People not knowing
Your wealth
Dont you ever just sit there and let
People do things they will later regret
Get yourself together find a way out
That what not settling is all about
Dont let anyone or anything (anything)
Oh yeaaaahhhh
Determine what your life can bring
Out or in
In or out
No one knows what your stories about
No need for medallions or metals
Just do not settle
Repeat until chorus fades
