i don't know nobody that's not trying to
be happy or successful if you're not
trying to be those two things something
seriously wrong you gotta go get
yourself some help
and uh
it's sort of i was watching this
this guy darius out here with this i
can't even call it disability i'm
looking at a kid that has no legs
no full functioning arms or hands
and i watched him
sit on watch youtube
teach himself how to play a piano
get invited to carnegie hall
and i was just thinking man i really
don't know how this affects you but i
really i trip on stuff like that because
i sit up and i always look at myself
and you know i've done a lot of jumping
in my life i'm not going to lie to you
but
this kid really inspired me today
because
i mean if you look at somebody like that
and he says he wants to be an
inspiration
i mean for us to create an excuse for
anything
it's unacceptable
it's really really unacceptable
you can't
why would you not
go for it why would you not
take a chance you know uh
uh bill uh uh tom bell was out here he
said at at one point in time
you got to take a chance on you
but see let me let me help you
understand something in case you ain't
thought about that when you take a
chance on you
i want you to remember something
that all of us were created in god's
image
so when you take a chance on you
you're taking a chance on god
it's because god is in all of us
you know i mean look man you might not
talk to him as much as you ought to we
might not acknowledge him in every way
we should
but he's in all of us
the good that you see in you that's god
that's god when you when you care about
somebody that's god
when you feel sympathy for somebody
that's god when you help somebody that's
god everybody in here got peace of god
in them
everybody
so when you take a chance on you you
actually taking a shot on you and god
because here's a deal
god when he created all of you
all of us
he gave you a gift
at birth
at birth
he gave it to you
the cool thing about god is he didn't
hide it from you he put it on a mountain
he didn't put it under the water he hid
it under no rock he put it in you at
birth god never created a soul without
giving him a gift all of you are gifted
at something
the problem is
you keep wanting your gift to be what
somebody else gift is
that's a problem
if you ain't really a actor why are you
acting
if you really can only sing at the
church why are you out here trying to be
a singer
if you really really really don't really
produce music
why are you out here trying you really
not a rapper
you steady rapping ain't you 34. ain't
nobody found you yet
you feel me
all of you have a gift you just got to
quit wanting your gift to be somebody
else's gift
identify your own gift because you
already have it here's the way you
identify your gift your gift is the
thing that you do the absolute best with
the least amount of effort
that is your god-given gift
that's it

birth if i was you i would do that gift
