L2B - Survive

[Hook]
All my life I strive for greatness
If you wasn't by my side, don't do me any favors
Wake up grateful every day just to be alive
Now put me up against the odds. and I'll survive
I say I'll survive, I say, I say, I'll survive
Now put me up against the odds, and I'll survive
I say I'll survive, I say, I say, I'll survive
I say I'll survive, I say, I say, I'll survive

[Verse 1]
First impression, skinny kid with a pale complexion
Dressed in black, which is reflection of his mild depression
Yet this smile on his face makes you question
His motivation, which is based on his obsession
With becoming the best and feeling destined
For greatness, had some mistakes to correct
Took some steps in the wrong direction
But got pulled back like face-lift
Instead of running away from the pain, he embraced it
Because it made him not afraid to be brave when
Faced with almost any situation
But he's fed up and done with this procrastination
And this impatience got him in a silent rage
Feeling like he's caged in, working a nine to five
And writing rhymes when the day ends
[Hook]
All my life I strive for greatness
If you wasn't by my side, don't do me any favors
Wake up grateful every day just to be alive
Now put me up against the odds. and I'll survive
I say I'll survive, I say, I say, I'll survive
Now put me up against the odds, and I'll survive
I say I'll survive, I say, I say, I'll survive
I say I'll survive, I say, I say, I'll survive

[Verse 2]
Never been a quitter since the start
May not be the strongest, but I got heart
And I got this art, so as long as I'm living
I'ma pick up this pen and give it my all
So if I fall, I'm there to pick myself up, and dust myself off
And learn from the loss like a champion does
Mainly because I've come to far just to hang up these gloves
I took my time, waited my turn
Now I've come to take everything I've earned
Thinking of all the bridges I've burned, 'cause I'm stubborn
But I've returned to rub it in the faces of everyone
Who ever said I would never learn
Ain't it kind of funny how the tables turn?
See you doing good and then suddenly get so concerned
The top is lonely, or so I've heard
But I've already been alone, and I know my worth
I've grown in to a wizard with words
You could learn a thing or two if you just observe
You tryin' to kill my vibe then swerve
Come at me in your rhymes and get served
I ain't got the time, I'm busy
Coming for that number one spot that I deserve
[Hook]
All my life I strive for greatness
If you wasn't by my side, don't do me any favors
Wake up grateful every day just to be alive
Now put me up against the odds. and I'll survive
I say I'll survive, I say, I say, I'll survive
Now put me up against the odds, and I'll survive
I say I'll survive, I say, I say, I'll survive
I say I'll survive, I say, I say, I'll survive
