Accept Greatness feat. Nelson Dialect by Royalz (rap) Lyrics
[Intro]
Accept greatness, uh
From my God's son Jacob
And anybody who needs the motivation
Let's take it (let's take it)
[Verse 1]
Yo!
Watch your cents, and them dollars take care of themselves (ha)
That's a jewel my old man told me back when I was twelve (ha)
Never trade experience, going through hell
By puttin' God first, second be my health (God)
Long live young Nels' (yeah)
I'm a cell up in a organism, before fortune and family ended with morticians
Kismet, obituary littered with pictures
Lord give us strength in the times when no one listens, stoicism
Kept your feelings hidden, not in my tradition. (nah)
Elicit the realist thing in the world, no coincidence in him (uh uh)
Hold the coldest wind until the summer kick in
Imma roll up in the ill edition, chillin
Everybody see my vision
Who it is and be the bystander (yeah)
The ones who lyin' throw slander with the laziest standard (get it)
Understanding is a benefit, a test of your ability
Still in me to give a hundred and ten, until I leave (uh huh)
[Chorus]
Accept greatness
You were born an original
God's someone, no-one put it on
Accept greatness
Don't accept failure, take it in your stride
Reject hatred, and, accept greatness
It's in your DNA, you never know what it takes till you make it
And uh, accept greatness
You were put in the world to change it, so change it
[Verse 2]
Turnin' my back on all the dead weight, lead-foot (cya)
Not playin' no second place, a bronze medal race (uh uh)
I assemble for the game seven (yeah)
LeBron James [?]
The extra effort, no one else will tell you (no one)
Associate with those only on my wavelength (what up)
Flow understated, pros well decorated
I'm the underground favourite and the most hated (ha)
Known by mainstream, I'm on both playlist (uh huh)
So faded, it don't matter I just take the payment (yeah)
DJing state-to-state staying so grateful (thank you)
Red Apple, Grand Mecca entertainment
Check the labels, the [?] (check it)
This ain't no debut, (uh uh)
Rap game, Cain and Abel
Accept fate, I don't enable negative
A better meditative place that I am in
Comin' from within (from within)
I got the skill to win, see it through (see it through)
Coz ain't nobody but you, can be you
So do what it do
And
[Chorus]
Accept greatness
You were born an original
God's someone, no-one put it on
Accept greatness
Don't accept failure, take it in your stride
Reject hatred, and, accept greatness
It's in your DNA, you never know what it takes till you make it
And uh, accept greatness
You were put in the world to change it, so change it (change it)
Accept greatness

What I’m saying to you this morning, my friends, even if it falls your lot to be a street sweeper, go on out and sweep streets like Michelangelo painted pictures; sweep streets like Handel and Beethoven composed music; sweep streets like Shakespeare wrote poetry; (Go ahead) sweep streets so well that all the host of heaven and earth will have to pause and say, "Here lived a great street sweeper who swept his job well."
If you can’t be a pine on the top of a hill
Be a scrub in the valley—but be
The best little scrub on the side of the hill
Be a bush if you can’t be a tree
If you can’t be a highway just be a trail
If you can’t be the sun be a star;
It isn’t by size that you win or you fail—
Be the best of whatever you are
Accept greatness, uh
From my God's son Jacob
And anybody who needs the motivation
Let's take it (let's take it)
