Hip Hop Battle - MOS Challenge 4

There's a wind blowing in Well I didn't expect it Hard to accept it Gusting in at top speed Might just knock me me off of my feet But there's a voice kicking in Saying I know you can't stop this But trust me you've got this The winds have something to teach That there's nothing outta your reach When there's a test on my plate It's up to me to choose to say I'm gonna face it and embrace it And I'm not gonna run away, no And maybe this moment is a challenge But I'm not giving up You gave me the tools the strengths the talents And You're always there to lift me up And when I lose my balance And throw up my hands Well it's a chance That you're giving to me To see I've got it in me And maybe this moment is a challenge But I'm not giving up You gave me the tools the strengths the talents And you're always there to lift me up And when I lose my balance And throw up my hands Well it's a chance That you're giving to me To see What I am made of You are the King of everything You are the One who knows me The One who chose me And it's not a piece of cake Yet I know You don't make mistakes Years from now down the line I bet I'd rather be the kind Who looks back and says "I did it" And not "what if I'd have tried, no" And maybe this moment is a challenge But I'm not giving up! You gave me the tools the strengths the talents And you're always there to lift me up And when I lose my balance And throw up my hands Well it's a chance That You're giving to me To see I've got it in me And maybe this moment is a challenge But I'm not giving up! You gave me the tools the strengths the talents And you're always there to lift me up And when I lose my balance And throw up my hands Well it's a chance That You're giving to me To see What I am made of
