[Intro: Denzel Washington]
2
I'm sure people have told you, to make sure you have something to fall back on
3
Make sure you have something to fall back on honey..
4
But I never understood that concept, having something to fall back on. If I'm going to fall, I don't want to fall back on anything, except my faith, I wanna fall forward..
5
I figure this way at least I'll see what I'm going to hit
6
Fall Forward
7
[Sample]
8
I don't know about my dreams, I don't know about my dreaming anymore..
9
All that I know is
10
[Verse 1: D. Ciano]
11
D. Ciano in Savannah's like Lebron out in Cleveland
12
I had to leave to be someone my city can believe in
13
I refuse to be another youngin' out here dreaming
14
I push it like Salt--Peppa, but here for more than a Season
15
Relevance is the reason, longevity's my fuel
16
And the process gets me heated, but my fans keep me cool
17
With or without a monarchy, my plan is to rule
18
And a back up plan is the reason that I'm in school
19
Seems cool, but some can't seem to understand me
20
Such as my peers, my friends, and all my Family
21
And Music is my way out, I don't have a Plan B
22
So why work for a college degree, when I want a Grammy
23
It can't be, too far from where I'm at
24
I worked too hard to stay in back
25
And I'm a star and that's a fact
26
No need to say I'm back, because I never left
27
And this food for thought shows I'm a better chef
28
But better yet
29
[Chorus]
30
I don't know about my dreams, I don't know about my dreaming anymore..
31
All that I know is, I'm Falling, Falling, Falling, Falling
32
Might as well Fall in
33
[Denzel Washington Talking]
34
Thomas Edison conducted 1,000 failed experiments
35
Did you know that? I didn't know that
36
Because the 1,001st was the lightbulb
37
Fall Forward
38
[Verse 2: D. Ciano]
39
Taking classes for granted cause I'm way too advanced
40
And I have questions that can't be answered by raising my hand
41
No bowl of cereal when I say I've been raising my brand
42
Reaching for clout, deep in the south, without.. making a dance
43
But what now? should I craft singles just to get cheese?
44
Or should I make the good music that the youth needs?
45
Correcting errors from my era like I proofread
46
Cause I'm too clever my endeavors are what fuel me
47
I'm tryna measure success but wheres the right ruler
48
Can someone from a dark past have a bright future?
49
I'm just a product of the streets who put my heart into rap
50
Who was smart enough to get the cheese and not get caught in the trap
51
Just take a listen you'll see art in my rap
52
And listen forward I'll have you falling right back
53
I was disguised as the norm to form your referral
54
Went from cyphers in dorms to now taking over the world
55
[Chorus]
56
I don't know about my dreams, I don't know about my dreaming anymore..
57
All that I know is, I'm Falling, Falling, Falling, Falling
58
Might as well Fall in
59
[Denzel Washington Talking]
60
Reggie Jackson struck out 2600 times in his career
61
The most in the history of baseball
62
But you don't hear about the strike outs, people remember the home runs
63
Fall Forward
64
[Verse 3: D. Ciano]
65
Mixed emotions on right or wrong, write a paper, write a song
66
Living up to the hype but ain't nothing like when my mic is on
67
Like when I see em listening whenever I perform
68
No longer Clark or in the dark cause now the lights are on
69
And since a dream like this isn't for certain
70
Society only respects a student unless I'm working
71
Figured I'd work 4 years for my bachelors
72
Just cause my ancestors worked 400 for their masters
73
Then I went casper, but I was far from friendly
74
D' Evil was out to get me, thank god that heaven sent me
75
I was tired of being broke and no job could ever fix me
76
Working hard but still proud like Oscar for every Penny
77
Living in new beginnings yet steady trying to make ends
78
It's hard in this real life filled with fake friends
79
So I go in, just set the date and set the bets
80
Until I reach my highest peak I don't think I can ever rest
81
[Outro: Denzel Washington]
82
So the question is, what are you going to do with what you have?
83
I'm not talking about how much you have
84
Some of you are business majors, some of you are theologians, nurses, sociologists
85
Some of you have money, some of you have patience, some of you have kindness
86
Some of you have love, some of you have the gift long suffering
87
Whatever it is, whatever your gift is
88
What are you going to do with what you have?
