作词 : Lawrence Sean Sibanda 作曲 : Lawrence Sean Sibanda Mic Check Is the mic on? OK Let me talk to 'em This verse here about to be my realest I swear man, I aint tryna be in my feelings But when I look back this life aint been easy Like Mike Jackson, against the odds I Beat It I'm from the ghetto, I aint even meant to be here I had meningitis, and the doctor said I won't be here but I'm still standing, and I thank the man upstairs Like Bon Jovi, I was living on prayer Grandma told me don't ever lose your faith I promise son, you gonna win this race I know they say, life is a Roller Coaster But what doesn't kill you can only make you stronger When the sun comes, and dark goes away And night turns into brighter days Sitting here lookin' through my window-pain and I can still see the scars that remain Oh man, I made it Thank God, I made it Against the odds, I made it Against the odds, I made it And now we getting so famous And I thank God, against the will of my haters They told me, I aint never gonna be nothin' I forgave 'em and prayed for 'em,, coz I don't hold grudges I grabbed a pen, grabbed a pad and put it in writing So they understand and comprehend it's part of my God's plan Tryna bring me down break me down, ima keep smiling Like skyscrapers' elevators, Ima keep rising I'm competent I'm passionate, you see it in my eyes man I live for this I'd die for this, this my life man I do this for my brothers thats doing time man So they know it's never too late to change your life man When the sun comes, and dark goes away And night turns into brighter days Sitting here lookin' through my window-pain and I can still see the scars that remain Oh man, I made it Thank God, I made it Against the odds, I made it Against the odds, I made it Yeah They say destiny's not a matter of chance But a matter of choice The choices you make in life Will determine where you gonna be in life When I was on that hospital bed I felt like It was the end of everything man But I couldn't let that break me down You can't let the lil' obstacles The lil' trials and tribulations bring you down You have to keep fighting You have to battle till the end You know what, my grandma told me to never be a failure So I never accept to fail yeah Against the odds I made it Against the odds we made it We made it We made it
