anything - Consequence, Kanye West, Patti LaBelle

Lookin' out my loft windows man my dreams became true

Lookin' at the mirror, wondering if it’s the same dude

Lookin' at my closet wondering if it’s all about clothes

Look right next to me, wondering if it’s all about

Hop in the car and asked the OnStar where this life goes

And I drive so fast I blur the light post

They say Drive Slow, I say «I know»

Then errrr, away I go

And the way I flew

In this year or two

I know this is what God put me here to do

But in this excitement

You just might miss

A shorty with a demo like «Hey, you might like this»

And see

He

Remind me of me

Just a year ago

Now he

Tellin' me

I’m his her-ro-oh

I took his CD and asked him what he’s lookin' for

He said, «Man, I don’t know.

Maybe a miracle»

Time, they say (true story,)

There ain’t no way

Your dreams are gone see the light of day

Don’t believe

That you can’t achieve

Whatever you’re after

You can’t be swayed

By the simple minds

That wanna hold you down

And in His time

The pain you carry

Will be left far behind

If you listen to the sermons

And ask the Lord for guidance

You will see the many blessings (blessings you have received)

When you give Him all the glory (glory)

Gonna talk to, don’t ignore thee (ignore thee)

Listen to all the stories

Meant to sing Your name

Don’t let no one stand in your light

Change the way you feel inside

Nobody on this earth

Can tell you what your worth

Stand up, your the child of The King

And you can do anything

You try to please everyone

Time to live your life

Release those old illusions

Stop wasting time and

Start embracing

His light and let it shine

(Don't you listen) when they say

(You won’t make it) oh it ain’t no way

(Through the madness) never stop believing in yourself

In the morning you’ll see

All the answers that free

You from chains that would seem

To keep you standing still

Don’t let no one stand in your light

Change the way you feel inside

Nobody on this earth

Can tell you what your worth

Stand up, your the child of The King

And you can do anything

I got an angel on my shoulder and I know he been warning me

To stay out the clubs where the police and warrants be

Cause that will lead to prison where the inmates and wardens be

But a lot of times we follow them when we know we ought to leave

And stay up in the party when we know that we ought to leave

But the women be callin' me

The liquor be callin' me

And what’s the sense in Cons tippin' strippers named Diamond?

If he gonna be conflicted no different than diamonds

And the Lord is the only one that he can confide in

So I don’t know how you think that you could deny Him

I open up the Book and the message is clear

But I still be in the hood so the pressure is there

To grab at that fast money just to get out of Queens

To bag up the work that they give out to fiends

But that ain’t gonna work if I say what I mean

Cause at the end of the day I’m trying to Get Out My Dreams

Don’t let no one stand in your light

Change the way you feel inside

Nobody on this earth

Can tell you what your worth

Stand up, your a child of The King

And I can do anything

Oh yes I can

Yes I can

I can do all things

Nobody on this earth can tell you what you’re worth

You’re a child of The King

Never stop believing in yourself

The way you feel inside

Nobody on this earth

Stand up, stand up

And you can do anything

(Hallelujah)
