    Verse 1
    It's 
    time 
    to take 
    you to 
    its 
    full 
    potential, 

    peep 
    this 

    And drop 
    some game 
    on 

    the instrumental, 
    and 

    It's 
    a symptom 
    that 
    you 
    listen 

    close 
    and better 
    tell 
    your folks 

    Let 
    the

    First 
    things 
    first 
    since

    You've 
    been 
    kinda 
    confused 

    about 
    what your 
    life 
    is worth 

    50 million 
    times 
    don't 
    wait 
    and go 

    You 
    gotta 
    take 
    control 

    Those fools 
    don't 
    want to be 
    home 

    Verse 2
    You 
    can do 
    anything 
    that 
    you want 
    to do 

    All 
    you got 
    to do 
    is to put 
    your brain 
    into 
    it 

    Take 
    your time 
    and edu
    cate 
    your mind 

    In 
    the long 
    run, 
    I'm sure 
    you're 
    fine 

    If 
    you 
    walk 
    the walk, 
    you can 
    talk 
    the talk 

    But don't 
    wait 
    too long 

    'cause 
    life 
    is short 

    And re
    member, 

    no matter 
    what 
    they tellin' 
    you 

    If 
    you 
    try, 
    you 
    can be 
    a winner 
    too

    Verse 4
    You're 
    a winner 

    Everybody 
    rides 
    with 
    the 
    women, 

    boys, 
    and girls 

    Each 
    one teach 
    one but 

    we can't 
    save 
    the world 

    All 
    at one 
    day you 
    gotta 

    take 
    it play 
    by play 

    And 
    once 
    you're on 
    the path, 

    don't 
    you ever 
    go 
    this way 

    If your 
    leader 
    wants 
    to holla 
    but 
    you 

    can't 
    make 
    him 
    plead 

    You can 
    give 
    a man some 
    wisdom 

    Verse 5
    but 
    you can't 
    make 
    him man 
    feel 

    Stitchin' 
    time 
    says 
    nine 

    The 
    early 
    bird gets 
    the worm 

    But all 
    you can think 
    about 
    is gettin 

    attention 
    for your 
    firm 

    If knowledge 
    is power 
    and 
    power 

    is know
    ledge, then 

    How so 
    many 
    idiots 

    be graduating 
    from colleges? 

    Better 
    the B- side 
    than 

    the be 
    gotted fool 

    Than to 
    speakin' 
    to move 

    all 
    out 

    Verse 6
    You know what 
    I'm talking 
    about 

    When opportunity 
    knocks, 

    you 
    better let 
    him in 
    and 
    sit 
    him on 
    down 

    And 
    try 
    to be his 
    friend 

    In order 
    to be 
    a professional, 

    first 
    you 
    got to 
    be a 
    be
    ginner 

    But if 
    you keep 
    on pushing, 

    you can 
    be

    Everybody 
    we're mov
    ing 
    on 
    up 

    Moving 
    on 
    up 

    Verse 8
    You're a winner 

    Red, 
    yellow, 
    black, 
    white 
    or brown 

    If every 
    mind 
    their business, 

    we can 
    all 
    get down 

    It all 
    starts 
    and 
    on 

    'Cause 
    once 
    they're grown, 

    they're 
    gone 

    And once 
    they're 
    on 
    their own 

    Verse 9
    You got 
    to leave 
    them alone 

    Be 
    a leader 
    but 
    if 

    you can't 
    be 
    a leader 

    Make 
    sure your 
    leader 
    is 

    a damn 
    good 
    teacher 
    and 

    Imagine 
    if you 
    was in a car 
    an

    d your life 
    was 
    wasted 

    Somebody 
    was on 
    your back 
    and you 

    had to 
    give him 
    some space 

    Put the 
    pedal 
    to the 
    metal 
    and 
    mash 
    out, 

    loc 

    But make 
    sure 
    you stay 
    in your 
    lane 

    Verse 10
    And go 
    stroke 
    for stroke 

    We 
    don't need 
    no penalties 
    or 

    eliminations 
    or disqual
    ifications 

    What 
    we need 
    is penetrations 

    Now I know 
    you heard 
    this 
    before 

    but sometimes 
    life 
    is what 
    you make 
    it 

    I ain't 
    the one 
    that's 
    known 

    for faking 
    or perpetratin' 

    If Albert 
    was 
    an 
    Einstein 

    An
    d Phyllis 
    was 
    a Diller 

    And Michael 
    Jackson 
    was 
    a thriller 

    Then you 
    could be 
    a winner 

    Verse 11
    Keep 
    on 
    pushing 

    Moving 
    on 
    up 

    Everybody 
    we're mov
    ing 
    on 
    up 

    Mov
    ing 
    on 
    up 

    (You gotta 
    be 
    moving) 

    Everybody 
    we're mov

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
