Tell Me I Can't

Voices telling me that I'll never get it Self-doubt drowned, but I gotta deal with people now Pulling me down, dragging down, hell bound But I am back (Yeah) tell 'em loud Heart still beating, never retreating Never receding, never seceding Old wounds cut wide open and bleeding Arms stretched wide open and reaching I can never die, I refuse to die by a suicide You want me dead, better grab out my old mic (Haha) And try to kill me with it Tie a bandana back like I did it (Yeah) Trace the line for line till you hit the dot and finish it Try to be me and end this shit For four years I played catch up Like fighting for a presidential term, I'm about to match up (Bring it) They said that you never can They said that you never will Turn your art into a career An artist slaughtered by his own peers They said that you never can Reach up to the stars and Achieve one of ol' times dreams Back on stage and just be me They said that you never can They said that you never will You will do everything you can To prove that you have the will They said that you can't You're about state who you are Who you are, you have the will To reach your goals to fulfill Climbing back up, knowing I can I will, I shall, I must stand What's the point of laying on my back If I can't get back up, I know the cards have been stacked Bets have costed lives Risks and rewards have shattered time History repeats for those who have eyes I know it's 2 AM, I can tell the time (Haha) Trust me I shattered that mirror, I shattered that clock I broke my reflection that was an infection, dear God Now I'm back, clawed my way outa hell This is my dark past from a dark path I fell Some people remind you of it And you gotta remind them that you're above it You made it here by the sheer Will power and let them hear They said that you never can They said that you never will Turn your art into a career An artist slaughtered by his own peers They said that you never can Reach up to the stars and Achieve one of ol' times dream Back on stage and just be me They said that you never can They said the you never will You will do everything you can To prove that you have the Will They said that you can't You're about state who you are Who you are, you have the will To reach your goals to fulfill To prove that you have the Will To prove that you have the Will To reach your goals to fulfill
