I I can
Be what I wanna be
If I work hard at it
I'll be where I wanna be

I know I can (I know I can)
Be I wanna be (be what I wanna be)
If I work at it (If I work hard it)
I'll be where I wanna be (I'll be where I wanna be)

Be, B-Boys and girls, listen up
You can be anything in the world, in God we trust
An architect, doctor, maybe an actress
But nothing comes easy it takes much practice
Like, I met a woman who's becoming a star
She was very beautiful, in awe
Singing songs, Lina Horn, but the younger version
Hung with the wrong person
Got her strung on that
Heroin, cocaine, sniffin up drugs all in her nose...
Coulda died, so young, now looks ugly and old
No fun now when she reaches for hugs people they breath
Cause she smells of corrosion and death
the company you keep and the you bring
came to do drugs and you came to sing
So if you gonna be the best, I'ma tell you how,
Put your hands in the air, and a bow

[Nas and Kids]
I know I can (I I can)
Be what I wanna be (be what I wanna be)
If I hard at it (If I hard at it)
I'll be where I wanna be (I'll be where I wanna be)

I know I can (I know I can)
Be what I wanna be (be I be)
If I work hard at it (If I work hard at it)
I'll be where I wanna be (I'll be where I wanna be)

Be, B-Boys and girls, listen again
This is for grown looking girls who's only ten
The ones who watch videos and do they see
As as can be, up in the club with fake ID
Careful, 'fore you a man with HIV
You can host the TV like Oprah
Whatever you decide, be careful, some men be
Rapists, so act your age, don't to be
Older than you are, give time to grow
You thinking he can give you wealth, but so
Young boys, you can use a lot of help, you know
You thinkin life's all about smokin weed and ice
You don't wanna be my age and can't read and write
Begging different for a place to sleep at night
Smart boys turn to men and do whatever wish
If you believe you can achieve, then say it this

[Nas and Kids]
I know I can (I know I can)
Be what I wanna be (be what I be)
If I work hard at it (If I work hard at it)
I'll be where I wanna be (I'll be where I be)

I know I can (I know I can)
Be what I wanna be (be what I wanna be)
If I work hard at it (If I work hard at it)
I'll be where I wanna be (I'll be where I wanna be)


[Nas]
Be, be, 'fore we came to this country
We were kings and queens, never porch monkeys
There was empires in Africa called Kush
Timbuktu, where every race came to get books
To learn from black teachers who taught Greeks and Romans
Asian and gave them gold
Gold was converted to money it all changed
Money then became empowerment for Europeans
The Persian military invaded
They heard about the gold, the teachings, and sacred
Africa was almost naked
Slavery was money, so they began making slave ships
Egypt was the place that Alexander the Great
He was so shocked at the mountains with faces
Shot up they nose to what basically
on today, you see?
If the truth is told, the youth can grow
Then learn to survive until they control
says you have to be gangstas, hoes
Read more learn more, change the globe
children, do your thing
Hold your head up, little man, you're a king
Young Princess when you get your wedding ring
Your man is saying "She's my queen"

[Nas and Kids]
I know I can (I know I can)
Be I wanna be (be I wanna be)
If I work hard at it (If I work at it)
I'll be where I wanna be (I'll be where I wanna be)

I know I can (I know I can)
Be what I wanna be (be I be)
If I work hard at it (If I work hard at it)
I'll be where I wanna be (I'll be where I wanna be)
