What You Gonna Do? by MC Chic Lyrics
[Intro]
The mic on?
Mic check, mic check
CHIC
This isn’t like anything you’ve heard before
It’s a little different this time around
[Verse 1] [MC Chic]
Never gets easy to be the one to open up
Cause I feel like I’m obligated to show that I’m old enough
To bury my issues, never pour ‘em cause I’m closed and
I should know when I’m overflowing like a loaded soda cup
Even if I’m human I can take that much more
But there’s days when I can’t even get past one door
Then I wait, to recuperate and to put away
All the problems that I face just to catch some snores
But then you wake up, unable to fight every single demon that
Takes up, the place in your mind you thinking to keep a bit
Sane but, the pain is too high to go sweep it beneath the
Same rug, that you kept hiding your feelings within, and the day comes
Where you feel like it’s all against you
But that’s the moment that was made to come up and test you
Do you let it win, or would you fight until it left you?
We’ve done it before, C and Enkay - rescue
[Bridge] [MC Chic]
Everybody has that moment when they find out
That they have a weakness (Weakness)
But standing your ground when you’ve got nothing to stand on
Is how you’re going to have to beat this (Beat this)
What you gonna do? (What you gonna do?)
What’s it gonna be? (What’s it gonna be?)
Life isn’t about how many times you fell
But all the times that you got to your feet (To your feet)
[Verse 2] [Enkay47]
Yeah
I ain’t saying to be two faced, (Yeah)
I ain’t saying to be too fake
Yeah what I’m saying is to do great, (Yeah)
Then you’ve gotta learn to exclude pain
No one really cares if your tooth aches
You can deal with this in one of two ways
You can either be consumed by pain
Or you can live life in a new way
Bobby Boucher
Even though I’m kinda stupid I will do great
In a new lane
Starting off as the Waterboy and the boule
Then I’m making money like I’m 2 Chainz
Am I too strange? Or just too great?
Am I ahead of my time or am I too late?
Looking at my life in a new way
Okay, yeah, here’s the chorus
[Bridge] [MC Chic]
Everybody has that moment when they find out
That they have a weakness (Weakness)
But standing your ground when you’ve got nothing to stand on
Is how you’re going to have to beat this (Beat this)
What you gonna do? (What you gonna do?)
What’s it gonna be? (What’s it gonna be?)
Life isn’t about how many times you fell
But all the times that you got to your feet (To your feet)
[Verse 3] [MC Chic]
Everybody needs a little space to breathe
Cause they can be consumed by rage to see
Every single mistake that they keep making
Either they can keep staying there or break the repeated
Pattern and be patient to seek greatness
Leave the hate beneath the reasons to be great to see
What it takes to reach out like Enkay and me
We patiently, waited so we break the celling
All it takes is a little motivation to do
I drew mine from the one whose middle name is Bruce (Batman)
Go bat like Lil’ Wayne or let the rage be a banner
To be the uproar one day, its true (It's true)
Channel it into my music and break the mold
Don’t need a seat at the table I’ll take the throne
Life doesn’t have a map, I’ll take the steps
If I don’t see a path, then good, I’ll make my own
(I’ll make my own)
