DJ-Z! - Dear Zane Lyrics

I don't care about what they say, what they do
What they think, who they are, cause I'm gonna make it through yeah
I don't care about what they say, what they do
What they think, who they are, cause I'm gonna make it through
Yeah, cause I'm gonna make it through
Yeah, I'm gonna make it through
I don't care about what they say, what they do,
What they think, who they are, cause I'm gonna make it through
Dear Zane
I probably better make this quick
Because life truly does go fast
And you're Dad will tell you that about a thousand times
So listen and let every moment last
Before you know it you'll be all grown up
The good times all left in the past
Life flashes before your eyes so please don't blink
Open wide, make sure you have a blast and
Focus on your craft and keep following your passion
It won't just happen yeah you got to take action
So don't be passive just get up and ask them,
Get them lights flashing to be the main attraction
And if rapping is your passion, then follow what your heart screams
No matter what they call you, only focus on your many dreams
Believe me, kids are mean, but people change and you will see
So you just keep your head on straight, it's not as hard as it seems
You'll aspire to become many things
A dancer, filmmaker, lawyer, then a rapper
An independent puppet hold your strings
Work hard and scream louder with your laughter
The betrayal and the heartbreak will sting
But don't let your world shatter, you got to think smarter
Just keep flying high with your wings
Fly little boy Zane, I want to hear you sing that
I don't care about what they say, cause I'ma make it real big someday, say
Keep my chin up and be brave, life lessons will come from the pain, say
No one dictates how I play, set the rules of the game my own way, say
If it's dark, I will find a way, I'll hustle for the pay every day, say
I don't care about what they say, I'ma make it real big someday
"I don't care about what they say, I'ma make it real big someday"
If it's dark, I will find a way, focus on the pay every day
Any day, you're gonna make it real big someday
Dear Xenofon, you'll be blessed with the best family through your youth
And when your life gets tough, they will be there for you
And it's the truth, so be there for the group
Through the highs and the lows, stick together like glue
Believe your sister, cause she only wants the best for you
Watch out for your brother, be something to look up to
Respect your Dad and your Mum, and remember where you came from
And every single day turn and say "I love you"
Learn Greek well to tell your Pappou that you love him
Cause one day he will be lowered in a coffin, not forgotten
Let it sink in, he will meet you in your dreams, calling often
But life isn't what you think it is, let me give you this caution
Like it's hard sometimes and you might want to cry
But let the real ones, like Nan and Reno, guide you through the night
To find the light, don't give up the fight, you will survive
We will be alright, you will be alright, alright
Stay true to you, and don't you ever change
Grow from the pain and you're mistakes, but heart remains the same
Cause you're Zane, and you ain't like the others, you are different, aye?
That's fine, cause one day they'll be screaming your name
But first they'll call you names, and make you feel insane
But just turn around and say I'm ama-Zane
Cause they will pay one day, but you don't got to say
A single word back to them, look in the mirror and say
I don't care about what they say, cause I'ma make it real big someday, say
Keep my chin up and be brave, life lessons will come from the pain, say
No one dictates how I play, set the rules of the game my own way, say
If it's dark, I will find a way, I'll hustle for the pay every day, say
I don't care about what they say, I'ma make it real big someday
"I don't care about what they say, I'ma make it real big someday"
If it's dark, I will find a way, focus on the pay every day
Any day, you're gonna make it real big someday
I don't care about what they say, what they do
What they think, who they are, cause I'm gonna make it through
Yeah I don't care about what they say, what they do
What they think, who they are, cause I'm gonna make it through
Be proud of who you are, be proud of where you come from
Be proud of everything you achieve, and add it to your sum
Regrets, have none, focus on the fun
And if they talk smack, then you better show em how it's done
So Zane, just know that you got this
Own it like you lived this life before,
And if you see an opportunity, then open the door
And if you sense the BS, then shut the door
Remember life don't come with an encore
So take advantage of the time it's up to you
But if they think you are unusual, and life don't work how you want it too
If life's unsuitable, then play this at my funeral
