Written for Gary Vaynerchuk who has played a great role in keeping me motivated and on point to the attitude that has now become my own version of gritty hustle and unmoved self belief!

lyrics
Don't listen to my words, just watch what I do
Doing is the win, no excuse,
the hustle is a marathon we run it everyday
Varner nation is the team, Patience is the play
document the process, learn from our losses,
grateful for the life we have and being our own bosses
no regrets, just go out and try,
at the end of the day friend, you're gonna die.
Your life; you're the only one you can trust with that
and squeeze your time, you got one at bat!
and you heard me right now run it back!
and listen now as I run these facts!
when you see a vision, you gotta build the logistics, depending on the picture that you see,
and I don't give a fuck what I suck at, make a failure a win, I'ma take an L like a Vee
and don't short change the short change, micro moves the macro gain,
long money started with 'short change', put in the work and give back to the game!
Don't listen to my words, just watch what I do
Doing is the win, no excuse,
the hustle is a marathon we run it everyday
Varner nation is the team, Patience is the play
document the process, learn from our losses,
grateful for the life we have and being our own bosses
no regrets, just go out and try,
at the end of the day friend, you're gonna die.
Now, unless you want the destitute,
to be the only pressure you, feel, you gotta execute execute,
a lil' angel not gon' sit next to you (here)
We go deep not wide,
Jet streams over sea's and skies (*Jet's streams over seasons guys)
and I, am a reverse engineer, ya I find the reasons why,
something works, unpack that, flip it and reverse it and I get inside,
and I'm bout that binary life, gotta double down, ya pick a side!
and quit making excuses! excuse me is useless,
gotta 'set the bar' - go ahead and lay down beers and pool sticks.
But I know what it's like, to be scared of what might, be inner light,
all you see is red like you stopped at a light,
all of it is dead, like it dropped outta sight,
but all of a sudden your head is filled with a might!
and 'I could never do it' just turned to a 'might'..
then a might turned to fuck it I might as well, while I'm here, live or die right!?
ya! and then you learn to crush it,
hustle your face off, got it? love it!
and fuck what other people think,
don't let em change nothing but the subject.
And if you're happy you won! you know what I mean,
and that self awareness will lead you, to that self esteem.
Don't listen to my words, just watch what I do
Doing is the win, no excuse,
the hustle is a marathon we run it everyday
Varner nation is the team, Patience is the play
document the process, learn from our losses,
grateful for the life we have and being our own bosses
no regrets, just go out and try,
at the end of the day friend, you're gonna die.
