If there were nations on Earth that built pyramids

And we can send rocket ships to where Ceres is

If we can dig through the crust at the bottom of the sea

Anything is possible in what I can give

Some may question the facts, but they do that

Take one step forward and two back

'Cause we don't want to get caught slipping and say the wrong thing

Wake up to a Twitter hashtag attack

But everything in moderation, there's no bad without the good

Recognize the blessings when I'm doing what I should

You attract what you are, my elders told me

We here, we cooking, we got the recipe

Let 'em know

What I get back

From the fails and the lessons and the set backs

I believe that

Is preparation for the comeback

What I get back

From the fails and the lessons and the set backs

I believe that

Is preparation for the comeback

We cooking, ay, ay

We cooking, yeah, yeah

We cooking

Generations running in and out the kitchen

Auntie calling out, tryna get them all to listen

Telling stories, putting herbs up in our system

Stories 'bout our uncle 'cause we miss him

We know they wanna hide the history

So we don't understand the magic

A lot has been done, we tryna heal the damage

Certain people scared, frightened, they get panic

'Cause we shine so bright that they cannot handle it

So our stories are getting told

With a hashtag and a tweet from the phone

You attract what you are, my elders told me

We here, we cooking, we got the recipe

Let 'em know

What I get back

From the fails and the lessons and the set backs

I believe that

Is preparation for the comeback

What I get back

From the fails and the lessons and the set backs

I believe that

Is preparation for the comeback

We cooking, ay, ay

We cooking, yeah, yeah

We cooking

We cooking

Yeah, what I get back

From the fails and the lessons and the set backs

Yeah, I believe that

Is preparation for the comeback, yeah

What I get back

From the fails and the lessons and the set backs

Yeah, I believe that

Is preparation for the comeback

We cooking, ay, ay

We cooking, yeah, yeah

We cooking, ay, ay

We cooking, yeah, yeah

We cooking
