know thy self

crooked i

some things will come to you. they're those of you who are in this business because you met somebody that knew somebody

or you had a good friend. that part came to you

but the success will not come to you. some things you gotta take

but the people who are ready to work

the people who are ready to grind and kill the?

all the haters

you're just laser-focused

like you don't even hear them

yeah

they want you down on your luck

they want your back against the wall

they don't want you to know the real

cause really you can have it all

i know you goin' through some rain now

it's the storm before the calm

but if you work through your pain now

you can hold the world in your palm

you got higher your esteem

put some stock on your self worth

before you could live out your dreams

you gotta sell yourself on yourself first

you a king

you a queen

you a teacher

you a leader

you should be who you should be

i'm just a real nigga and a thinker

become who you really are

cause baby you're a star

cause baby you're a star

become who you really are

cause baby you're a star

cause baby you're a star

why you changed your name to kxng crooked? haters always trying to tear you down

i got a mind full of jewels

so imma always wear a crown

i'm just tryna get some jewels back

like the ones in my necklace i'm wearing now

my words come from my stomach man

if you listen close you can hear it growl

somebody told you

you'll never make it

they born haters

they don't wanna do it

turn a blind eye to your nay sayers

and you can do it

stevie wonder knew it

cause you a king

you a queen

you a leader

you a teacher

you should be who you should be

i'm just a real nigga and a thinker

become who you really are

cause baby you're a star

cause baby you're a star

become who you really are

cause baby you're a star

cause baby you're a star

i'm just trying to show you how hungry i am

how committed i am

the winning

believing

achieving and reaching for any goal i wanna reach it

nobody could possibly stop me

i can be whatever i want to

become who you really are

cause baby you're a star

cause baby you're a star

i can be whatever i want to

become who you really are

cause baby you're a star

cause baby you're a star

i can be whatever i want to

and you can be whatever you want to

i got a message in a bottle

open and read it and said

become who you really are

cause baby you're a star

cause baby you're a star
