Testo In It to Win It - Charlie Wilson
Testo della canzone In It to Win It (Charlie Wilson), tratta dall'album In It to Win It
I was born in Oklahoma, thought in Oklahoma
When I was a little boy I used to sing before my father preached
I wanted to love on everybody, hug on everybody and smile
But you know it was a time when there was steal segregation and a lot of racism
You know here people called me names like lil' nigga boy and all that
When I got to college, I'll never forget, one of my professors told me
That I was goin' to be nothing in life and imma end up in an ally
And I kinda ended up like that way, at least for a while
'Cause I did end up on the streets at one point in my life doin' drugs and alcohol
My story started, uh, such a long time ago
Bruce up and scarred
Sometimes that seems impossible
Some said I was unable, yeah
I think they was afraid of what I can do
I never stopped believin', ah
I'm gonna see it all the way through, oh no
Don't tell me that I didn't want ya (want ya)
But Kobe in the fourth quarter (quarter)
Didn't know what time it's over (over)
But I'm not backing down
'Cause I'm in it to win it
I'm gonna reach to the top
Nothing's gonna make me stop
'Cause I'm in it to win it
Oh yeah, oh yeah (ooh)
Oh, yeah, oh yeah
'Cause I'm in it to win it
There's a fire in release, so I'm giving it my everything
'Cause I'm in it to win it
Oh yeah, oh yeah (oh, oh-oh)
Oh, yeah, oh yeah
Yes I'm (in it)
In it to (win it)
I'm not gonna (stop, no)
'Til I feel it
I see it in the distance (hey)
Waiting for me like an open door
But more I get resistance
I swear I want it even more
I'm gonna be so grateful, so grateful
When I finaly get to you
'Cause I never stopped believin', ah
So I'm gonna see it all the way through, oh yeah
Don't tell me that I didn't want ya (want ya)
But Kobe in the fourth quarter (quarter)
Didn't know what time it's over (over)
But I'm not backing down
'Cause I'm in it to win it
I'm gonna reach to the top
Nothing's gonna make me stop
'Cause I'm in it to win it
Oh yeah, oh yeah (ooh)
Oh, yeah, oh yeah
'Cause I'm in it to win it
There's a fire in release, so I'm giving it my everything
'Cause I'm in it to win it
Oh yeah, oh yeah (oh, oh-oh)
Oh, yeah, oh yeah
Yes I'm (in it)
In it to (win it)
I'm not gonna (stop, no)
'Til I feel it
And I know, the road is long yeah
I know, the road is long
And I'm never givin' up
I ain't never givin' up
I know
'Cause I'm in it to win it
Nothing's gonna make me stop
'Cause I'm in it to win it
Oh yeah, oh yeah (ooh)
Oh, yeah, oh yeah
'Cause I'm in it to win it
There's a fire in release, so I'm giving it my everything
'Cause I'm in it to win it
Oh yeah, oh yeah (oh, oh-oh)
Oh, yeah, oh yeah
Yes, I'm (in it)
In it to (win it)
Yes, I'm (in it)
I'm gonna (win it)
Yes, I'm (in it)
In it to win it (oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)
You know it's been a-, it's a roller coaster ride for me
But I've, I'm having fun in my life and you know I learned one thing
My blessings come from God, my life has already been mapped out by God
So this is why I'm still here
I'm not going anywhere, I'm not quitting, I'm standing up
I'm standing tall, I'm goin' forward
Yeah, I'm in it to win it
