As I walk around feeling really good, about every thing from my health to my hood
I realize that i'm blessed with a lot
So all I gotta say is work with what you got
They say my voice really wasn't made for rapping
Straight out the deep home it would never happen
As a teenager had my first child
And in all the photos you never seen a smile
But now I'm the best that ever did it
The greatest female rapper and they all must admit it
So all the haters I say thanks a lot
Life can turn out really good if you work with what you got
I know it's hard but it takes some work to be (working with what you got)
If you got nothing or even if you got it all (working with what you got)
If you have an idea just think it
If you have one eye just blink it
If you have a drop of rum just drink it
Working with what you got
If you got one leg just shake it
If you don't want to smile than fake it
If you got one potato bake it
You got to walk it out until you can't walk it no more (working with what you got)
You got to walk it, walk it until you know you score (working with what you got)
You got to walk it 'til you can't walk it no more (working with what you got)
If you got nothing or even if you got it all (working with what you got)
Let me hear you sing along
I know it's hard but it takes some work to be (working with what you got)
If you got nothing or even if you got it all (working with what you got)
Any time you see (?) shows you a cove
I know deep in your heart you don't deserve
You maybe taking a licking but keep on ticking
That's the way it's gonna keep do nothing
Cause life can turn out good if you work with what you got
Let me hear you sing along
If you got nothing or even if you got it all
Work with what you got!
