Inspiration

Inspiration's a force, a current, a tide

It pulls you along, with nowhere to hide

It whispers in moments, both big and small

A gentle nudge, answering freedom's call

From nature's beauty to stories untold

In every corner, treasures unfold

So open your eyes, and open your ears

Let inspiration conquer your fears

It builds you up, and gives you flight

Turns darkness to day, and wrong into right

It's the fuel that ignites the fire within

The courage to start, the will to begin

A symphony of ideas, a vibrant hue

Inspiration's waiting, just for you

So grab it, hold it, let it take hold

And watch as your story begins to unfold

Inspiration, it ain't always a shout

Sometimes it's a whisper, no room for doubt

From the lives of others, a light shines through

Showing you how to be honest and true

Inspiration, it's a gift we receive

A reason to hope, a reason to believe

So let it guide you, let it set you free

Inspiration, for you and for me

Yo, lemme tell you 'bout a couple of cats I knew

Back in the day, when skies were gray, and dreams were few

One found solace in faith, a path divine

Changed his ways, left the old life behind

I ain't mad at cha, like Pac said, it rung true

Saw the peace he found, a different point of view

Another, raised in the church, kept his head strong

Even when we slipped, he knew right from wrong

Never judged, just stood his ground, firm and tall

A quiet strength that inspired us all

See, I ain't perfect, never claimed to be

Stumbled and fell, made mistakes, you feel me

But these cats, they showed me, in their own way

That being real is the light of day

So here's to them, and to you, if you're listening close

Be yourself, let your true colors expose

Inspiration, it ain't always a shout

Sometimes it's a whisper, no room for doubt

From the lives of others, a light shines through

Showing you how to be honest and true

Inspiration, it's a gift we receive

A reason to hope, a reason to believe

So let it guide you, let it set you free

Inspiration, for you and for me

Yo, let me tell you about a shift in my soul

A quiet fire, taking its hold

Friends from the past, spirits aligned

Showed me a path, a different kind

Never judged 'em, though worlds apart

A seed was planted, deep in my heart

Remember Ricky raised in the church's grace

Held to his values, in every space

We'd light up the night, pushing the line

But he stood firm, his spirit divine

Never preached, never looked down

Just lived his truth, wore his own crown

That quiet strength, it spoke to me loud

In a world of pressure, stand out from the crowd

Now I ain't perfect, got flaws, that's real

Stumbled and fell, felt the wounds heal

But that's the point, the lesson I've learned

It's not about perfection, it's how you've turned

Inspired by those who walked their own way

I'm here to say, Don't be afraid to sway

Embrace your journey, the stumbles, the grace

Find your own path, leave your own trace
