| Now if it goes to the wire
|
| I will never fall, I got the soul of a fighter
|
| Walk barefoot over coal, over fire
|
| Nobody’s gonna love me like me, so I’m my sole provider
|
| If it goes to the wire
|
| I will never fall, I got the soul of a fighter
|
| Walk barefoot over coal, over fire
|
| Nobody’s gonna love me like me, so I’m my sole provider
|
| Nobody thought I’d ever be dope with the pen
|
| Whole first album was real, all wrote from within
|
| Got a little bit of fame, I’m in the five, top off
|
| lokin' again, nah, I ain’t smokin' again
|
| Maybe I was too advanced, or 'cause the masses
|
| Didn’t go through it firsthand maybe they couldn’t understand
|
| The trials of a kid who never graduated
|
| Maybe they’d rather hear some bullshit that’s fabricated
|
| Like my rims keep spinnin' on the V on the ave
|
| Fuck me gettin' shot at, or me gettin' stabbed
|
| Fuck gettin' so high to the point that I was gettin' so high
|
| Off of that high that I almost died
|
| Fuck everything I’ve seen in the precinct that’s indecent
|
| Or the coppers tryna keep me in there for no reason
|
| Fuck being homeless, rib cage showin'
|
| Last night I had beef but had to go there to eat
|
| Fuck me growin' up and not gettin' to see Dad
|
| Fuck therapy, detoxes and rehabs
|
| Dudes in the hood being wild undercover
|
| Or me beefin' with my child’s mother
|
| Or fuck Joe Budden the Third, chill
|
| 'Cause if you fuck with Joe Budden the Third then, nigga, that’s my word
|
| Fuck the jealousy, deceit
|
| Fuck the strong-arm and B&E's, much older than twenty-three
|
| Fuck what I’m rappin', fuck this and the pad
|
| And nigga fuck me missin' my dad
|
| Maybe if I rap 'bout buyin' the bar out, or all the jewellery that I got
|
| Then maybe y’all niggas’ll listen to that
|
| But listen, know now that this is my whole style
|
| And I can’t rap that other shit, I don’t know how
|
| All the hate shit on me and the fakeness I see
|
| I write the real and you can’t take that from me
|
| If it goes to the wire
|
| I will never fall, I got the soul of a fighter
|
| Walk barefoot over coal, over fire
|
| Nobody’s gonna love me like me, so I’m my sole provider
|
| I don’t write so my label can be on top
|
| Nigga, I write so the voices in my head just stop
|
| Nigga, I write my life and it’s way too real
|
| This is Pay-per-view, not the Dave Chappelle
|
| Joey hated by many and loved by few
|
| One of the last real niggas left, what you wan' do?
|
| Trouble with my voice, but even without a voice
|
| Still for every hood in New Jersey I’m the choice
|
| Used to break up in a house for a TV
|
| Two years later, look Mouse on TV
|
| My story nonetheless
|
| And it’s a story of success, nigga, it’s the story of the best
|
| If it goes to the wire
|
| I will never fall, I got the soul of a fighter
|
| Walk barefoot over the coal, over fire… |
