"Destined For Greatness" - Tobi & Manny (feat. Janellé)
Intro:
C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
This world won't tear me down
E minorEm C majorC
It's I who wears the crown
A minorAm E minorEm
They hate to see me now
E minorEm G+G C majorC
There's greatness all around
Chorus:
C majorC
Destined for greatness
A minorAm
Back in school days, I was known for my lateness
E minorEm
Always wanted more, wouldn't ever try to take less
E minorEm
Always been a real guy, never liked the fakeness
C majorC
Never liked the fakeness, always kept it real though
A minorAm
Back to back on the track with my lil' bro
E minorEm
Keep our heads high but we work with our heads low
E minorEm G+G
Destined for greatness, it was known from the get go
Verse 1:
C majorC
Known from the get go, written in the stars
A minorAm
Pullin' all the strings like we're playin' on guitars
E minorEm
Puttin' all the work so we know it's really ours
E minorEm
And now we whip it 'round in matching cars
C majorC
Now we roll around in matching whips
A minorAm
If we wanna go abroad, we just pay for trips
E minorEm
But it's not by chance, ain't talking lucky dips
E minorEm G+G
Just kinda funny how it started from FIFA clips
Bridge:
C majorC
Used to pay for the games, now the games pay me
A minorAm
Oh, your girl got you FIFA? I got mine for free
E minorEm
At the same time providing for my family
E minorEm
We're controlling the game like Nintendo Wii
C majorC
Controlling the game, it's just what we do
A minorAm
Started off with nothing, you could do it too
E minorEm
Long days at the uni, couldn't see it through
E minorEm G+G
Had to ask myself "Could you be a better you?"
Verse 2:
C majorC
Now I'm standing right here as a better me
A minorAm
Looking back on all my time at university
E minorEm
Made a tough decision but it set me free
E minorEm
Reaping all the benefits, yeah, it's there to see
C majorC
Reaping all the benefits, we get the checks
A minorAm
We don't just earn money, fam', we earn respect
E minorEm
And what you see is what you get with us
E minorEm G+G
Calm and calculated, not impetuous
C majorC
Come from a good home, taught to be humble
A minorAm
Momma always told me "Gotta get up if you stumble"
E minorEm
Never dropped the ball so I'm never gonna fumble
E minorEm
Always liked the pressure so I've never thought to crumble
C majorC
Never thought to crumble, always liked the pressure
A minorAm
Going for gold like I'm digging for some treasure
E minorEm
Passion for my craft isn’t something you can measure
E minorEm G+G
Music's a hobby, man, I do it for my pleasure
Chorus:
C majorC
Destined for greatness
A minorAm
Back in school days, I was known for my lateness
E minorEm
Always wanted more, wouldn't ever try to take less
E minorEm
Always been a real guy, never liked the fakeness
C majorC
Never liked the fakeness, always kept it real though
A minorAm
Back to back on the track with my lil' bro
E minorEm
Keep our heads high but we work with our heads low
E minorEm G+G
Destined for greatness, it was known from the get go
Outro:
C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
This world won't tear me down

It's I who wears the crown
A minorAm E minorEm
They hate to see me now
E minorEm G+G C majorC
There's greatness all around
