They can't judge me
They don't know me
I won't budge, see
I walk my own streets
Trust me
I've been lonely
Eyes wide shut
No matter what they say
I'm writing my own tale
I'm fighting my own way
And I will survive
No matter what they say
I've chosen my own way
To tell you my story
I know I'll survive
No matter what they say
Yeah
My way or no way
Nonbelivers, OK
I'm a showcase
How I made it through the cold days
Heard them say, Addis —
Mediocre, average
Dead and gone, down and out
Cold-hearted bastard,
Anti-social, don't take it personal
I don't fuck with anybody.
Keep a tight circle,
Same goals, same dreams, same values matter:
Honesty, loyalty, see how it adds up.
Knocked down a million times
Prayed on my knees
Darkest hour god's power
Got me back on my feet
No matter what they say
I'm writing my own tale
I'm fighting my own way
And I will survive.
No matter what they say
I've chosen my own way
To tell you my story
I know I'll survive
No matter what they say.
All alone and I feel I'm on burning ground
Hold my hands, let me know it'll turn around
Show me how to be strong, I wanna stay alive
Oh yes, now I know I will survive
All my life I had a dream — I'm running for
I see the sun, come out I see the picture on my wall
I see the birds flying and the clear sky right
…over my head, over my head
Knocked down a million times
Prayed on my knees
Darkest hour god's power
Got me back on my feet
No matter what they say
I'm writing my own tale
I'm fighting my own way
And I will survive
No matter what they say
I've chosen my own way
To tell you my story
I know I'll survive
No matter what they say
On the journey to success there's a lotta things
Want ya to stay in your lane, don't follow mine
Please, can I get a lil' breather
I used to cut class but pass test
The teacher said I was a cheater, wow
Thought I was running the streets, I was libraries
Writing bars, listen to songs Mariah Carey
When a hero comes along with the strength to carry on.
Till I'm on top, with my team, poppin' Perignon,
yaaa
They can't judge me
They don't know me
I won't budge see
I walk my own streets (trust me)
I've been lonely
Eyes wide shut
No matter what they say
I'm writing my own tale
I'm fighting my own way
And I will survive
no matter what they say
I've chosen my own way
To tell you my story
I know I'll survive
No matter what they say.
