Makin’ a Difference, a song for Nahim McCleod May 20, 2020
You got nothing to prove,
Ya got nothing to lose
I tell you every chance I get, You gotta take a stance I bet,
Entertain, use your brain, explain and contain
Take a chance make a stance live life and dance the dance
Understand, it’s a plan, don’t just listen to the man
Take your place, find your face and
Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul, Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul
Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul, Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul
Checkit, Checkit, I don’t care if you are misunderstood
You gotta get out, get out, get out and do some good
Sometimes gotta take a chance, chance
Sometimes gotta to dance the dance, dance
Be an Island or be the swimmer
Either way, gotta be a winner
Figga it out, make your design
I don’t care, just be the best of all time….
You got nothing to prove,
Ya got nothing to lose
Hit it every chance you get, make-em makem laugh with your set
Write a poem, visit home, get out and fly a drone
Take a bath, do some math, feel Kahn and Kirk’s wrath
Fall in love, feed a dove, worship the one above
Just take your place, find some space and
Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul, Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul
Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul, Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul
Check it, check it, you gotta get out, you gotta be out there
If you wanna help people, you gotta show that you care
Helping others only begins to make some sense,
If you get out, get out, and make a difference…
Sit out, stay in, just don’t make people sick wit‘ worry
Stand tall, be strong, be the path to your own victory…
But you don’t want to lose
And you got nothin’ to prove,
Forget every single threat, laugh and don’t get upset
Build a fire, go inspire, watch Netflix and the wire,
Find a beach, eat a peach, buy a dog and a leash.
Make them laugh, find your path, don’t kiss anyone’s ass
But don’t forget, Boba Fett, and
Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul, Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul
Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul, Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul
Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul, Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul
Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul, Feed yo’ soul, feed yo’ soul
