In Black Ryno's song "Take Control" the lyrics convey a sentiment of perseverance in the face of adversity. He expresses his determination to never lose sight of his goals, despite being watched and targeted by "pagans" who wish to see him fail. Throughout the verses, he emphasizes his drive to work hard and make money, not for personal gain, but to take care of his family and loved ones. He acknowledges that there will be obstacles and challenges along the way, but once he fixes his focus on what he wants to achieve, he is confident he can overcome them.
The chorus of the song is a plea to higher powers to help him maintain his strength of will and guide him on his path towards success. At the same time, the lyrics illustrate an understanding that to truly take control of his life, he must rely on himself and his own abilities. Ultimately, the message is one of self-reliance and determination, that anyone can overcome their circumstances if they are willing to put in the work and maintain their focus.
