PBS - Senior Year

Medusa

I promise to use mine
I promise to use mine to pave the way, pave the way
I promise to use mine...nothing beats
I promise to use mine...a failure but
I promise to use mine...a try

Nothing beats a failure

Try, try again
And don't ever compare yourself to the next man
We all stars
Some of us use our shine in different ways
I promise to use mine to pave the way

Now I've done some shady thangs
Got some shady pay
Had some shady days
When I didn't believe in self my folks believed in me
I can't lie they kept a lie
If it weren't for them
I would've fell off most the time
'Til mom's like eyes and spit game, made me wise
Now let the chorus kick one mo' time
C'mon

Nothing beats a failure
(I promise to use mine)
but a try...you can make it if you try
(I promise to use mine)
but a try
(I promise to use mine)
Nothing beats a failure
(to pave the way, pave the way)

Nothing beats a failure
(I promise to use mine)
but a try...you can make it if you try
(I promise to use mine)
but a try
(I promise to use mine)
Nothing beats a failure
(pave the way)

Do the ladies love and birth our brothers
(yeah, yeah)

Now love me back
Have my back
Support me black
Like I'm the MC and you the track
Like you the median and I'm the electrical
Current connecting you to the aid that
In fact, I'm tryin' to deal with you
But we can't keep running every time there's a issue
Rrrrrrrahhh
I need some late night misuse
Cute e-mails
Let's be real
If we don't stand a little bit
The relationship fails
But not this one here
C'mon

I promise to use mine...you can make it if you try
I promise to use mine
I promise to use mine to pave the way, pave the way
Nothing beats a failure but a try...you can make it if you try
I promise to use mine
I promise to use mine
But a try
Pave the,
Nothing beats a failure but a try...you can make it if you try
Pave the, pave the
I promise to use mine
I promise to use mine
Pave the, pave the, pave the way

The "Senior Year" series presents an original song from the "High Priestess of Hip-Hop" herself, Medusa. The musical style of her music is so unique and diverse, it can not be easily categorized, sometimes compared to a variety of amazing artists such as: Lauryn Hill, Sly Stone, KRS-ONE, Gil-Scott Heron, and Erykah Badu. Expect the "Angela Davis of Hip-Hop" to revolutionize the music industry and leave the Rap community speechless.
