Mmm...hmm...hmm...mmm...hmm...   Yeah, yeah      When I was a young boy   I had visions of fame   They were wild and they were free   They were blessed with my name      And then I grew older   And I saw what’s to see   That the world is full of pain   And my dreams they left me      And then I got stronger   Inside of the pain   That’s when I picked up the pieces   And I regained my name      And I fought hard, y’all   To call by my place   And right now you could ask me   And it all seems in vain      [Your dreams ain’t easy] Your dreams ain’t easy   [You just stick by your plan] You just stick by your plan   [Go from boys to men] Go from boys to men   [You must act like a man] You gotta act like a man   [When it gets hard, y’all] When it gets hard, y’all   [You just grab what you know] Got what you know   [Stand up tall and don’t you fall] And my background sing      You will know [You will know], yeah...eah...   [You will know]   [You will know] You will know, you will know   [You will know]      And I know you’re cryin’   ‘Cause it’s all in his vein   And the things you want you can’t have   It just all went away      But life ain’t over   Hoo...hoo...   Just grab the winds and make demands   And the vibe will take you far      [Your dreams ain’t easy] Your dreams ain’t easy   [You just stick by your plan] Stick by your plan, boy   [Go from boys to men] Go from boys to men   [You must act like a man] I know it ain’t easy   [When it gets hard, y’all] it gets hard sometime   [You just grab what you know] Yes, it does   [Stand up tall and don’t you fall] Stand up tall, don’t you fall, and you will know, yeah      [You will know]   [You will know] Ah...ah...ah...
