It looks like the system |
|
tries to hold me down |
|
But guess what? I ain't ****ing around |
|
You can't deny the pride |
|
that I have shown |
|
I grind hard and I must hold my own |
|
Coming from the gutter |
|
It's so hard to get ahead |
|
Taking no one's bullshit |
|
and working for my bread |
|
The future don't look positive, |
|
the rat race holds me down |
|
What a struggle keeping |
|
two feet on the ground |
|
Someday I'll have my peace of mind |
|
I'll keep fightin', one day I will find |
|
A decent life where self-respect is shown |
|
Until then I must hold my own |
|
Always under pressure |
|
I take things as they come |
|
Always looking up, |
|
look out for number one! |
|
My views got you in check, |
|
I never back down, |
|
I pack a hard punch, |
|
and I always stand my ground |
|
I - will not back down |
|
Holding my own, I stand my ground |
|
You will not break me |
|
My belief is my way can't you see? |
|
Coming from the gutter |
|
It's so hard to get ahead |
|
Taking no one's bullshit |
|
and working for my bread |
|
The future don't look positive, |
|
the rat race holds me down |
|
What a struggle keeping |
|
two feet on the ground |
|
Never back down |
