They try to take me down
I pick myself up off the ground
You said you want some, get it now
Come get it now, come get it
They try to take me down
I pick myself up off the ground
You said you want some, get it now
Come get it now, come get it
There's been a lot of times that I've been blistered and burnt
Twisted and hurt by people who were wishing me worse
I've seen a lot more shit than I think I deserve
I've been pissed on, hated on and kicked to the curb
But now I'm out man I get to show my kids what I've learned
I get to hold my shoulders high and show these kids what I'm worth
I get to know I can inspire, mould and give 'em a burst
Of the creative types of energies delivered in words
But now I live with a curse
Been seeing curves on my reality a divot occurs
A bit of my turf is missing
Like I'm digging the Earth
Til rivers emerge because I put my misery first
This isn't the worst thing that I've been given or earned
I figured the work is bigger than my quivering nerves
So I'ma
Sit back while you listen and learn
Because the gift I've got in this is not some shit to return
Don't give it up
They try to take me down
I pick myself up off the ground
You said you want some, get it now
Come get it now, come get it
They try to take me down
I pick myself up off the ground
You said you want some, get it now
Come get it now, come get it
There's been a lot of times that I've been waiting to die
Hating my life
Because I don't feel safe in my mind
I fast forward to the days that I've been chasing but find
That I'm not ready but it's hard to get the tape to rewind
Now I'm not letting go of anything
I'm taking the signs
And being better than I ever was
Embracing the sky
I'm bracing the sides
In case I go and break all the lines
I may have to cry
When I lose all the faith I supplied
Now I just hasten the rise
Cause I don't wanna stay upon the mountain face that I climb
I'd rather
Stay awake than be complacent and slide
Into a never ending dream
Where I'm escaping the ride
But now I'm facing a high
That I could fall off if I stall
When I'm too shaky to fly
Impatient am I
But fuck it' I'm too angry to try
The radio's live
So I've just gotta play it and drive
I'm giving up
They try to take me down
I pick myself up off the ground
You said you want some, get it now
Come get it now, come get it
They try to take me down
I pick myself up off the ground
You said you want some, get it now
Come get it now, come get it
They try to take me down
I pick myself up off the ground
You said you want some get it now
Come get it
Come get it
Come get it now
