Value

Value 

The value of being great 
It starts with you 
It's not too late
(Repeat 1x)

I see a girl , I mean a queen 
Who has battled
With self esteem 
I also see a person 
Not living her dream 
She's had some flaws 
Readjusted her crown 
She's had more ups 
And over comes the downs 
She doesn't frown 
She tries to make it 
With her vision 
Let's see how far she can take it 
With her faith 
Let's test it 
With problems 
Don't let it 
Don't let it stress you 
You are doing your best 
May God continue to bless you!!

The value of being great 
It starts with you 
It's not too late
(Repeat 1x)

Rap 

As a boy growing into a man 
I've done the best that I can
Sadly I'm already labeled in people head 
Statistics said I'll end up in jail or dead 
I used to believe what was being spoken into my life 
How can I make this right 
Give my life to Christ 
Yep I can make it 
With any problems I can face it
With my past I can erase it 
And start over 
Keep my head up above my shoulders
I'm learning as I get older 
To lean  not on my own understanding
Call on God when life is good or when it gets demanding 
Don't start planning 
Yet 
Revise, Refocus , Reset
Knowing the best is yet to come 
Hope y'all understand where I'm coming from 
(Chorus)
The value of being great 
It starts with you 
It's not too late 
(Repeat 1x)

Bridge 
Value 
What is your worth ?
You were destined for greatness  at birth 

(Repeat 2x)

(Chorus)
The value of being great 
It starts with you 
It's not too late
