Used to care what everybody had to say
Tried to look that type of way
I was so confused
Used to let you tell me who I ought to be
Dead unless you wanted me
I did it all for you
Now I know that the fear was just a part of me
Got something at the heart of me
A hunger in my veins
Now I know I got fire in my arteries
Healing up all those scars in me
I'll never be the same
I've seen the live I wanna be livin'
It's not my fault that you ain't in it
I'm a fighter flying higher
Ride or die you won't catch me quitting
Found my power now I get it
Tried to hold me down you didn't
All my life eyes on that prize
I know its mine bout time I get it
Get it get it
Bout time I get it
Shedding old skin, yeah I'm something like a snake
Only so much I could take
No way I could have know
Grass was truly greener on the other side
Set down the fear regained my pride
Goodbye to cliques and clones
I did it all for you
Now I know that the fear was just a part of me
Got something at the heart of me
A hunger in my veins
Now I know I got fire in my arteries
Healing up all those scars in me
I'll never be the same
I've seen the live I wanna be livin'
It's not my fault that you ain't in it
I'm a fighter flying higher
Ride or die you won't catch me quitting
Found my power now I get it
Tried to hold me down you didn't
All my life eyes on that prize
I know its mine bout time I get it
I've seen the live I wanna be livin'
It's not my fault that you ain't in it
I'm a fighter flying higher
Ride or die you won't catch me quitting
Found my power now I get it
Tried to hold me down you didn't
All my life eyes on that prize
I know its mine bout time I get it
