Yeah, uh

DJ Khaled

I'm getting on my own way

'Cause these days I ain't tryna complicate things

My heart's in the right place

I'm settin' my intentions, manifestin' good change

And life gets hard, but a purpose

It's gotta make the bad days worth the tears

So I'll just be still, be still

'Cause things are happening that I just can't see (see)

And if I got patience, then I got peace (peace)

I have to let go, let go of everything ('thing)

And watch what happens when I break free (free)

And just be, just be (just be), me

Just be, just be, just be (just be), me

Just be, just be, just be (just be), me

Just be, just be, just be (just be), me (uh)

I'm movin' like the wind (yeah)

Smooth and easy, just flowin'

Trustin' myself to work it out

Wherever life got me goin'

Mindful of the future, still grateful for the past

If all I got is right here and right now, I'ma make the moment last

'Cause things are happening that I just can't see (see)

And if I got patience, then I got peace (peace)

I have to let go, let go of everything ('thing)

And watch what happens when I break free (free)

And just be, just be (just be), me

Just be, just be, just be (just be), me

Just be, just be, just be (just be), me

Just be, just be, just be (just be), me (uh)

I ain't worried 'bout a storm

'Cause I'm built for any weather, yeah, that's what I know

How do I get my flowers

If I don't stand strong and watch my flowers grow?

Mm, I'm focused on the future but grateful for the past

If all I got is right here and right now, I'ma make the moment last

'Cause things are happening that I just can't see (see)

And if I got patience, then I got peace (peace)

I have to let go, let go of everything ('thing)

And watch what happens when I break free (free)

And just be, just be (just be), me

Just be, just be, just be (just be), me

Just be, just be, just be (just be), me

Just be, just be, just be (just be), me (uh)

Always be you
