Beautiful

[Verse 1: Big K.R.I.T.]

No matter what the obstacle is, we fight through it

To survive is only half the battle, we won't lose it

So have faith in better days on the way

I lend my hand to you, whenever you need me I'll stay

I understand sometimes, the world is type cloudy

But like a plane that's over the game, we fly out it

Determination, dedication til the end

I'm there every step of the way, until we win

Cause I believe in prayer, in God Almighty

Get them burdens off your shoulder, send them to the highest

But we can beat it, overcome the lows

Being positive is key, you believe and it shows

I spread awareness, be mindful of your health

Be here for one another so you never by yourself

One step at a time, one time for the cause

I rep it for the world, I rap it for us all

[Hook: Mela Machinko and Outasight]

Don't run away from who you are

Life's beautiful (life is beautiful)

Pick yourself back on up

Life's beautiful (life is so beautiful)

[Verse 2: Talib Kweli]

This the highway of life, we stay driven

Then at some point, you arrive at a decision

To fly high, we weather any condition

We doing more than surviving because we living

The music feel good -- yes sir, it'll satisfy you

Like a meal would, real good when it's going down

It's the flavor that you savor when you wait

It tastes great -- compliments to the chef, he got taste

Clean your plate, clear the music in front of a glass of water

Taking stale pictures, see the crystals forming

The horns make me feel victorious, the keys make me feel glorious

The drums make me feel like a warrior

The track feel big, Notorious

Do it for the people feeling trapped in the corridor

Nobody know what you're going through in a day

But don't let yesterday ruin today

And they say..

[Hook]

[Verse 3: Outasight]

They say it's all for the money, but I don't wan' believe it

I'm a man of my word, so whatever you been hearing

Is the truth -- flatline, polygraph, that's me

We could all use a break -- spare of Apache

Catch me crossing items off my bucket list

Cause life is good as you want it to get

I paint a different portrait with any color I find

The canvas is the world and the brush is my mind

I don't mind stepping out my comfort zone

I think the greatest fear is the one of the unknown

If you afraid of living and you afraid of death

Then I'm afraid you'll never take a step to the left

Or the right direction

Tonight's confession -- I used to be scared of my own reflection

And what would really happen if I fought that vision

But the matter all along -- if it's not good, it's gone

[Hook]
