[Intro: Wave Parker]
Wavy
Those who you model yo'self after
Really shows how you gonna be in life
Yafeelme
Hey
[Hook: Wave Parker]
Before you ball you gotta make some changes
If you hustlin' I'm speakin' yo language
Some days you gon' feel like you ain't shit
Some days you gon' feel like you can't hit
Keep on movin' till you can't no more
Once it's up, no chance in gettin' low (Wavy, yessuh)
[Verse 1: Wave Parker]
Listenin' to Larry June, had to get my numbers up
Keep it organic, they can sense it in your mantra (You know they can)
Listenin' to Payroll, gotta boss my own life (Holla)
Can't work for another n***a for my lifetime (And that’s facts)
Listenin' to Curren$y and do as I please (Shoutout to Currеn$y)
Fulfill yo' life when you live within yo' steez (Feel mе?)
Listenin' to K.R.I.T., this is king shit only
Groovy for the soul, know them labels can't hold me
Listenin' to Premo, keep it playa, all times (Feel me?)
You'll never take me out of my character outline (And that’s right)
Listenin' to Max B, always keep it wavy (Wavy)
Gotta gain green, keep floatin' on the daily
Listenin' to Parliament, keep it funkadelic (I keep the funk)
The funk'll never go out of style, let 'em tell it (Feel me?)
Listenin' to those who influenced and it's all the same (And that’s right)
Stay true in yo' lane and you'll run the game (Yessuh)
[Hook: Wave Parker]
Before you ball you gotta make some changes
If you hustlin' I'm speakin' yo language
Some days you gon' feel like you ain't shit
Some days you gon' feel like you can't hit
Keep on movin' till you can't no more
Once it's up, no chance in gettin' low (Ya feel me?
(Listen)
[Verse 2: Wave Parker]
You're only as great as the ones you are influenced by (Ain’t that right?)
Can't say I only looked up to the folks in suit and ties (And that’s right)
Gold teeth, gold chains hangin'
Told myself one day, I'll be the one swangin'
I know how to play the game in my favor
Could lose now but I'll for sure win later
Objective of the process is always make progress
You'll never have too much to dream, Kenny Loggins
One step made is still one step closer
Even through the storm, gotta keep yo' composure
In order for growth to take place, you need some rain
Remember, there's healing at the end of the pain
It's only over with if you say so (Ain’t that right?)
Healthy mind, body, and soul to keep stable (Ain’t that right?)
Wake up everyday thanking God for another chance (Thank you, Lord)
Gotta make the best outta every last circumstance (And that’s right)
Yafeelme
[Hook: Wave Parker & B.A.N.K.$.]
Before you ball you gotta make some changes
If you hustlin' I'm speakin' yo language
Some days you gon' feel like you ain't shit
Some days you gon' feel like you can't hit
Keep on movin' till you can't no more (B.A.N.K.$.)
Once it's up, no chance in gettin' low
[Verse 3: B.A.N.K.$.]
You have yo' moments when you down
But you'll end up with a smile
It'll storm, angels callin' deep inside the clouds
But when the storm over
The sun will come around
Let the wind blow
Open the window, look at the town
Don't be a clown, young man
This yo' mission to win
But if you lose, young man
You'll live to do it again
Don't be a fool, young man
We all gon' die in the end
But if you focused on now, make sure you holdin' ya chin
Be the man in the mirror
Not the man in the cell
Be the man who has fear
But not afraid he gon' fail
Grab the wheel, take control
And look out for your peers
Eyes straight, lights on, and look out for the deer
Live yo' life to be good, live yo' life to be great
Live yo' life for yo' kids to have food on their plates
Before you ball, tie your shoes before you end up on skates
Before you ball, brace yo'self
Because the haters gon' hate
Oh Lord
[Hook: Wave Parker]
Before you ball you gotta make some changes

Some days you gon' feel like you can't hit
Keep on movin' till you can't no more
Once it's up, no chance in gettin' low
