Lyrics I Made My Mark - Eric Thomas

He told the guy .
He said, when you want to succeed as bad as
You want to breathe then you'll be successful

There's those of you that don't understand the power of your why and
What I need you to do for me is that when you make your moves on a
Daily basis I don't need you to make them with you on your brain,
Because if you're thinking about you then you might quite,
Or if you're thinking about you then you might give me 80%.
Right .
If you're thinking about you.
Like for real you, you on you.
You selfish...
Like real some of you are going to work and
You are like I don't feel like going to work...
And the reason you don't feel like
Going to work is because you are on you.
So you can not want to go to work and then when you go ...
Look this is what people don't realize
We didn't blow up because of what we do ...
We blow up because of the passion in which we do what we do...
You understand like all we do is free videos on You
Tube that's it but the passion in which we do free...
Your not going to get people to do it
The way we do it that's getting paid...
We not getting paid no money but we are bringing it.
Look 8 years we been bringing it.
Are you hearing me .
Come on ...
It's for free but we do it with passion...
So you going to work with an attitude and you don't get it you so
Selfish, that you can go with an attitude because you not thinking
About the people behind you the reason you saying no to stuff,
The reason you pushing the snooze button,
The reason why you still going to work tripping,
The reason why you don't blow up is because you are still on 70% you
Still on 60% you want to know why the world is passing you
Up because whatever you do for a living you barely doing it...
You coming and you don't want to be there...
You not bringing the fire, you not bringing the passion,
You not bringing the heat and the reason why
Your not bringing it is because you on you.
You have not blown up because you are
So self centered its always about you ...
You so conceded,
You so arrogant your whole life is about
You and that's why you haven't gone no where.
But when you learn to think about somebody else,
How what you do effects,
How your sleeping in the bed effects somebody else life.
How you hitting the snooze button effecting somebody else's life...
How you being lazy .
She got to walk past you to go to work ...
You still on that your momma gotta get
Up and go to work to provide for you...
My momma work for me I created a job so when my mom
Finished working when she retired from where she didn't want to be.
She can now do what she like to do and get paid for it...
Come on come on I need you to finish this year
Up strong so I can get the real you in 2017 .
We tired of this 60% you .
We tired of this crying you.
This complaining you ...
We tired of this version.
Greatness is in you ...
You are here...
You have been blessed by the Creator to be on the earth.
You here .
Leave your dog gone mark .
You here...
He blessed you to be here ...
Do something ...
So whatever you got to do you do it...
But I'm not about to compromise ...
Because you inflicting pain .
And there are those of you ...
You were this close but you compromised ...
You let your feelings get the best of you .
You compromised .
You let your anger make you say
Something that you really didn't want to say .
You let the fact that you were lonely .
You got lonely and you did stuff that you know you probably wouldn't
Do some of you have sold your greatness
And your destiny for a couple of dollars.
And what I'm doing now I was doing 20 years ago and I have not bent.
I didn't break ...
So what you don't understand why I'm doing what I'm doing.
So what you don't see my greatness...
So what you don't understand how I do what I do ...
This is what I've been called here to do ...
And you let a little pain stop you from your dream ...
Girl you were there you were running your business you were there and
Then your momma didn't like the fact that you were doing then your
Momma didn't understand and your
Going to let your momma in your ear ...
Like it was your mommas dream...
You let your daddy talk you out of it...
That was yours .
That was something the creator gave to you ...
That belonged to you .
My mother never understood but she working for me now...
I didn't quite because people didn't understand...
I worked harder when people didn't support me ...
We never stop...
I wake up every single day and I will
Prove to the world that I was here...
I made my mark ...
I was here...
And you cant take that away from me ...
I told you if I die today you cannot
Take away the fact that Eric Thomas was here
