I know I can Be what I wanna be If I work hard at it I'll be where I wanna be I know I can, I know I can Be what I wanna be, be what I wanna be If I work hard at it I'll be where I wanna be, I'll be where I wanna be Be b-boys and girls listen up You can be anything in the world, in God we trust An architect, doctor, Maybe an actress But nothing comes easy it takes much practice Like, I met a woman who's becomin a star She was very beautiful, leavi'n people in awe Singin' songs, Leena Hawn But the younger version hung with the wrong person Got her strung on the sniffin' up drugs all in the nose Could have died so young, now looks ugly and old No fun 'cuz now when she reaches for hugs People Hold their breath 'cuz she smells of corrosion and death
