Nelly - Self-Esteem (Feat. Chuck D)

You got to believe in yourself

Don't let nobody tell you what you can't be

You got to believe in yoursel-elf, yeah

And everything else'll work out, you'll see

Ohh (ohh) ohh, ohh, hoh!

You got to believe in yourself

Don't let nobody tell you what you can't be

You got to believe in yoursel-elf, yeah

And everything else'll work out, you'll see

Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh

I think I – naw, I know I can

I think I – naw, I know I can

I think I – naw, I know I can

I know I can, I know I can, ay

You see my poppa was a rollin stone

And my momma had problems of her own

But I still managed to make it out okay

... ohh, ohh

Although I'm hailed as a hometown hero

Still in my hometown I'm seen as a negro

But man, that's okay

Uh uh uh uh uh uh

It's so many obstacles in life to overcome

And as soon as you jump over one here come another come

But we got to be strong, and set examples for our sons

If the sun don't shine, then the decayin has begun

You got to believe in yourself

Don't let nobody tell you what you can't be

You got to believe in yoursel-elf, yeah

And everything else'll work out, you'll see

Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh

I think I - naw, I know I can

I think I - naw, I know I can

I think I - naw, I know I can

I know I can, I know I can, ay

They say I'm old enough to go to war

But I ain't old enough to play in the NBA no more

Now you tell me, what's wrong with that?

Ah ah ah, ah-ah ah ah

I pledge allegiance all the way to Iraq

But ain't nobody pledgin to me when I get back

Tell my Uncle Sam he wrong for that

Ah ah ah, WOO!

You see my self-esteem, I'm never leavin home without it

They told me I'd never make it, they told me I ain't doubt it

Now tell me whoever make it, now tell me I ain't got it

I'm seein +No Limits+ nigga, who sayin I ain't +Bout it+?

You got to believe in yourself

Don't let nobody tell you what you can't be

You got to believe in yoursel-elf, yeah

And everything else'll work out, you'll see

Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh

I think I - naw, I know I can

I think I - naw, I know I can

I think I - naw, I know I can

I know I can, I know I can, ay

Rock on Nelly, rock on my brother

Keep your head up over the storm, young fella (hoh!)

Got a letter from the government, opened and read it

Uhh, and told 'em all to forget it

C'mon, cause we BELIEVE in the future

Uncle Sam sent his man to recruit ya

You still can't trust it, cause you came this far

End of discussion, when you KNOW who you are

You got to believe in yourself

Don't let nobody tell you what you can't be

You got to believe in yoursel-elf, yeah

And everything else'll work out, you'll see

Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh

I think I - naw, I know I can

I think I - naw, I know I can

I think I - naw, I know I can

I know I can, I know I can, ay

You gotta believe it

You gotta believe, my brother

You keep doin your thing

That's right, keep that head up

All the way to the future

That's right, for the babies baby

For the babies
