Life hit hard still I stand
Cold hands warm plans
I learned the math in the gutter
One eye on the plate one eye on my mother
Rent due pride thin sleep in a stutter
Still I move like a blade through the butter
I seen friends fold seen love turn sour
Seen a good day die in a half an hour
So I wrote my pain in a four-line tower
Turned that hurt to a power now I rise by the hour
Hard times taught me keep my chin up
Empty fridge nights still I put my pin in
Every loss made the next win bigger
Every scar got a story every storm got quicker
I was broke but the grind stayed faithful
Kept my name clean kept my plate full
If life swing low I swing back brutal
Built a whole self off the scraps they threw me
I don't fold I don't blink
I go deep when I think
All my scars in sync
Then I jump that brink
Life life I don't break
Life life I make shake
Life life I take what I can
Life life still I stand
Life life I don't fold
Life life I get gold
Life life I pay that cost
Life life never lost
Now the same walls watch me different
Same old block but my steps got distance
Same old doubt but my voice got volume
Same old nights but the dawn looks solemn
I got goals in a bag with a broken zipper
Dreams so sharp they could cut through winter
Mama said"Boy keep your head on level"
So I turned that pain into a whole new vessel
I been hungry I been low I been laughed at
Seen fake love hit fast then it passed by
Now they call when the room getting packed tight
I remember when the line was a black sky
I don't need applause I need peace in my chest
Need a little less weight when I lay down to rest
Need my kids never starve from the war I survived
Need my name stay true need my spirit alive
I don't fold I don't blink
I go deep when I think
All my scars in sync
Then I jump that brink
Life life I don't break
Life life I make shake
Life life I take what I can
Life life still I stand
Life life I don't fold
Life life I get gold
Life life I pay that cost
Life life never lost
If I fall I fall forward
If I doubt I go harder
Every wound made a border
Every border made me smarter
Life life I don't break
Life life I make shake
Life life I take what I can
Life life still I stand
Life life I don't fold
Life life I get gold
Life life I pay that cost
Life life never lost
Still I stand
Never lost
