Wisdom Songtext
von Ace Hood

(Uh)
A wise man once said, ′never be a label'
If you let ′em tell your story, they'll incarcerate you
They choose to see you through that lens but that's a narrow vision
I really chose to be myself and trust my intuition (right)
I really do write down my goals and bring ′em to fruition (yes!)
I wish I would sell my soul just for some recognition (naw)
If y′on't lean into that pain, it′ll get repetitious (right)
See, everybody claim they real, but what's yo′ definition? Man, I get chills from all them stories, just here reminiscin'
Ain′t see my father, so big brother was my livin' witness
My Momma only did her best to give us proper livin'
This for them times I felt alone and kept my composition
My oppositions nonexistent, they ain′t no competition
This for my tribe and for my guys who watchin′ from them skies
They lookin' down, I know they proud on how I shift the odds
I finally got what I was worth, I′m givin' grace to God,
Oh my God (God)
