You want something done
You gotta do it yourself
Yeah I think this is gonna be another one of those funky ones
If I was you, and you were me
Youd wanna be winning
If you want something bad, yall
You gotta wanna give your all
cause I believe so much in we
And know were not kidding
If you feel the same as me yall
You gotta wanna take the ball
Now I found out that nothin is given
Dont know where the cards may fall
All I know is that weve gotta get it
Weve gotta make it on our own
Well I guess were gonna have to take control
(all on our own)
If its up to us weve got to take it home
(all on our own)
Now cant you see that all we need
To be a go-getter
Gotta make your own decisions
You gotta go for what you know
There comes a time in our lives
You wanna be bigger
Gotta keep keep on pushing
You gotta learn to take control, yeah
Now I found out that nothin is given
Dont know where the cards may fall
All I know is that weve gotta get it
Weve gotta make it on our own

Rap:
Too hot to handle, too cold to hold
Theyre called the ghostbusters and theyre in control
Had em throwin a party for a bunch of children
While all the while the slime was under the building
So they packed up their group, got a grip cam equip
Grabbed the proton packs off their backs, and they split
Found out about vigo, the master of evil
Try to battle my boys, thats not legal
Theyre in control
You, you, you know it
I said theyre in control
Y-y-you know it
Y-y-you know it
Hook 2 times
Y-y-you know it
Y-y-you know it
