Take Away
Been working that late night grind
They tell me life's a lie
I don't care what they say I'm one of a kind
They trying to keep me on the low
I'm putting in my time
Always trying to grow
They try to take away
All these things that I had to work for
I don't need a pay day
If I get some I'll make more
Get away I'm working
Trying to be the greatest I can
You think you get me
But I know you don't understand
I tried to fit in but I didn't like it that way
I tried to play nice
But then they got in my way
I can't be stopped 'cause I ain't got a limit
Trying to make me quit
But I'm so indifferent
Trying to tell me I'm timid
Now you're a critic
I guess you've never seen me make music
I'm gonna light the match and make the fire
Then blow it up
While you conspire
Always working late nights
I'm never tired
I'm my own boss
So, I'm always fired up
They try to take away
All these things that I had to work for
I don't need a pay day
If I get some I'll make more
Get away I'm working
Trying to be the greatest I can
You think you get me
But I know you don't understand
They try to take away
All these things that I had to work for
I don't need a pay day
If I get some I'll make more
Get away I'm working
Trying to be the greatest I can
You think you get me
But I know you don't understand
I don't want no fame
If I get some I'll change
And I want to stay the same
I like my life it's great
I can't complain
Yeah
Mood is switching
'Cause I reversed it
I don't like texting
I'm better in person
I hate when my conscience
Tries to be perfect
I'm still growing
Always learning
Still grinding
Always working
Trying to teach my mind
To have some courage
That might mean forfeiting things
That keep me reserved
Bit I'm going up
They try to take away
All these things that I had to work for
I don't need a pay day
If I get some I'll make more
They try to take away
All these things that I had to work for
I don't need a pay day
If I get some I'll make more
Back away yeah
Back away, back away
They tell me life's a lie
I don't care what they say I'm one of a kind
They trying to keep me on the low
I'm putting in my time
Always trying to grow
They try to take away
All these things that I had to work for
I don't need a pay day
If I get some I'll make more
Get away I'm working
Trying to be the greatest I can
You think you get me
But I know you don't understand
I tried to fit in but I didn't like it that way
I tried to play nice

Back away, back away
