Lyrics Determination - Bone Thugs-n-Harmony

I mean, yeah, it's all up to you, y'know?
You gotta be determined to bring this vision into your life, bro
If God has put something on your heart, it's up to you to take the faith
To bring this thing into reality, y'know what I mean?
(OK, I feel you, I feel you)
I mean, you gotta be determined by all means necessary
You gotta bring the unseen to the scene – y'know what I mean?
Yeah

You need your basic information before you can leave earth
And the B-I-B-L-E is the source of the true words
Some choices they do hurt, faith is dead without works
From the minute you was birthed, you only find it when you search
I'm prepared for the worst, but strive for the best
It's survival of the fittest – I'm alive, so I'm blessed
With my eyes bare witness, while I'm praying for forgiveness
I'm a give it all I got, from the start to the finish, finish (Finish)

Oooh, every day we pray (We pray)
Yes we pray (Yes we pray, pray)
Oooh, every day we pray (We pray)
Yes we pray (Yes we pray, pray)

You must need determination
Determination
Don't let distractions replace it
You can make it
You must be strong and be patient
You must be patient
'Cause it must be determination
Determination

I'm tryin' to make it to the finish line (Finish line)
But I'm cursed in the worst way – Satan was a friend of mine (Yeah)
Until I woke up and I realized (Realized)
Association with the fakers and haters I had to minimize

Have you seen the bad side of a Gemini?
It's been a really bad vibe between him and I
Nigga die, I'm trying to rise to the occasion
Determined that I make it, no matter what I'm facin'

Oooh, every day we pray (We pray)
Yes we pray (Yes we pray, pray)
Oooh, every day we pray (We pray)
Yes we pray (Yes we pray, pray)

You must need determination
Determination
Don't let distractions replace it
You can make it
You must be strong and be patient
You must be patient
'Cause it must be determination
Determination

We are born with God-given purpose and that's certain
Everybody got work to put in for the Lord
See we nothing but servants
What goes to move toward
Gotta be strong and determined to march forward

Every now and then I slip and go backwards
But I refuse to lose heart, and that's a factor
Life is like a war, and you fine to lose a few battles
If you let them, they send you up the creek without a paddle

Oooh, every day we pray (We pray)
Yes we pray (Yes we pray, pray)
Oooh, every day we pray (We pray)
Yes we pray (Yes we pray, pray)

You must need determination
Determination
Don't let distractions replace it
You can make it
You must be strong and be patient
You must be patient
'Cause it must be determination
Determination

If you dream, it you can reach, fam
Determination is a hustle with a good plan, understand?
Set some goals, grab a hold of your toes
'Cause rest only comes to the dead and gone
And under the leaf every time the sun comes up
Life is hard and easy with the trials you can overcome
Destiny is coming, it's not a phase you can run from
Listen to the wise, you can make it past phase one
Ignorance (Oooh...) will have you stuck out in the cold (Cold)

...every day we pray (We pray)
Yes we pray (Yes we pray, pray)
Oooh, every day we pray (We pray)
Yes we pray (Yes we pray, pray)

You must need determination
Determination
Don't let distractions replace it
You can make it
You must be strong and be patient
You must be patient
'Cause it must be determination
Determination

Once in your heart, then there's nothing can stand in your way (Determination)
De-termination
Once in your heart, then there's nothing can stand in your way (Determination)
De-termination

Determination, we pray
What am I giving away?
What am I giving away?
Getting the rhythm with Lay
Getting the chorus with Kray
Hanging with Wish
You had Flesh out of the penitentiary
Ride for the Desiré (Desiré)

Give me the strength, God, I got whipped
Look upon, load up a clip, and go get it
Never confuse, better to move, ride and do it (Determination)
She really ain't nothin' to it
Me 'n Cupid never cool with (Oooh...), baby come cool with it

Every day we pray (We pray)
Yes we pray (Yes we pray, pray)
Oooh, every day we pray (We pray)
Yes we pray (Yes we pray, pray)

You must need determination
Determination
Don't let distractions replace it
You can make it
You must be strong and be patient
You must be patient
'Cause it must be determination
Determination

There's no ability that Satan possesses
That is greater than the authority you possess
So if he comes with one thing, you serve with much more God
When staying abound, Grace tells what? Much more, about
Satan will never, ever, outdo God

Oooh, every day we pray (We pray)
Yes we pray (Yes we pray, pray)
Oooh, every day we pray (We pray)
Yes we pray (Yes we pray, pray)

You must need determination
Determination
Don't let distractions replace it
You can make it
You must be strong and be patient
You must be patient
'Cause it must be determination
Determination

And that's why they say it in the book, to mark chapter 11 23
That you can say to amount to heaven, no doubt in your heart
But have faith in your heart, you'll have whatsoever you shall
We are faith people

Then there's nothing can stand in your way
