Born to Survive

Can you shout out Wo-o-o-o we’re born to survive
Think we’re going to make it, make it
Think we’re going to make it, make it
Can you shout out Wo-o-o-o we’re born to survive
Think we’re going to make it, make it
Think we’re going to make it, make it
As a kid growing up, I knew that I was different
I told them one day I’ma be the best but they didn’t listen
It started off as a dream, I turned it into a vision
The passion made me consistent, so now I’m on a mission
All of my friends was leaving me, ain’t no one believe me
So I had to be the only one that believe me
I was so determined that I knew that I was going to make it
I didn’t want to be good, I wanted to be the greatest
Threw my hands to the sky and started reaching for the stars
And now I got the mic and all I hear is these applause
For every win and every loss, for every time I lost a job
Every time that life was hard, at the end it made me strong
So don’t ever never say it’s something you can’t do
'Cause I know if you believe that dreams come true
Every risk is chance, it begins with a plan
I would never be a quitter I’ma fight til the end
Can you shout out Wo-o-o-o we’re born to survive
Think we’re going to make it, make it
Think we’re going to make it, make it
Can you shout out Wo-o-o-o we’re born to survive
Think we’re going to make it, make it
Think we’re going to make it, make it
I was never taught how to swim and I was caught in the deep end
It deepened the burden on me, the water was creeping
Into my lungs, I’m struggling, out of breath and I’m mumbling
Bumbling to the point where I’m dying because I’m weakened
That’s life, harsh realities and all
Back on the wall, no help, feeling so small
But I evolved, like the phoenix I rose from the ashes
And verbally bashed every critic, hater and asshole
To the top of the mountain, not your typical type
Rather I’m trying to tackle, take off and be outta your sight
To a level so unattainable, I’m changing ya life
And iconic assassin of the beat and the mic
Huh, ha, in me that had doubt, no belief
But lions don’t lose sleep over the opinions of sheep
So I’mma get, that, dust off my shoulder
And I’ma do, this, till I croak and it’s over (COME ON)
Can you shout out Wo-o-o-o we’re born to survive
Think we’re going to make it, make it
Think we’re going to make it, make it
Can you shout out Wo-o-o-o we’re born to survive
Think we’re going to make it, make it
Think we’re going to make it, make it
