Dust It off - Stronger Than Yesterday
Dust it off, walk it out
I won't take your shit anymore
Stronger now than yesterday
It's all bad, don't be sad
I guess the shit getting old (no, no, no)
No, no, don't tread on me
Don't know my energy
Don't feel like me anymore
Dry my eyes, wipe my mouth
Dust it off, walk it out
I won't take your shit anymore
Stronger now than yesterday
I was the one who came home with the gun
But I was the one who was loaded
Men never cry (so they say)
Or they weak
Work it out, never no coaches
I'm showin' love like it's a kiss on the cheek
On work, I'm always stayin' focused
Ex poses, I expose it
Took a double dose, call it dos'es
Now it's deuces, never two cents
Got opinions, but they useless
Now I use less, a confused mess
I'm a nuisance, find a new sense
Where the noose ends, my new life begins
Knock me down but me I fight to win
Problem is I got no fight to give
I'm finna fight to give another life to live
I suffered time and time again, my mind defies my whim
I'm finally tryna grin, but smiles don't lie or fib
I wish I was winnin'
I wish my position wasn't based on broken dreams and piles of shit
Oh, my God, I'm sorry, I just showed emotion
Y'all wanted a body, I brought you an ocean
Makin' moves online, I'm callin' that e-motions
I want you to notice, know this ain't no diss, but fuck you!
I gave you everything I ever owned
Sharpen skills and give you all I ever honed
Is power knowledge? Guess I'll never know
Overpowered, undersold
If you don't know me, now you know
No monocle, but we still go
Put a ring around a rose
And watch what you love become ash on the road
Dust it off, walk it out
I won't take your shit anymore
Stronger now than yesterday
It's all bad, don't be sad
I guess the shit getting old (no, no, no)
No, no, don't tread on me
Don't know my energy
Don't feel like me anymore
Dry my eyes, wipe my mouth
Dust it off, walk it out
I won't take your shit anymore
Stronger now than yesterday
I'm feeling larger than life, so tell me why the fuck you think I need a shrink?
Considering I always feel like I'm drowning, it's funny that I need a drink
And it's funny, half the time I think I'm getting fucked
I just need to work out the kinks
Bitch, I'm flowin' like a sink and barely floatin' by I feel like I'ma sink
Oh, insanity, I'm on the brink
Oh, walkin' on ice like a rink
Oh, nobody blink or you'll miss me
I hope you leave and miss me
Write it in ink
Incorporate my lack of love for myself
With what you think of me, it prolly don't help
You're helping yourself to a helping of me without hittin' the books
Now I sit on a shelf
Y'all heard of Elf on a Shelf
Y'all heard of Hell in a Cell
Call me the failure that fell
Know I'ma prevail when they vail
When the veil is lifted, life's a bitch, it ain't fair
If it ain't broke, then don't fix it, right?
I paid the fare, can I fix my life?
I'm always wrong, ain't no Mr. Right
No more shining me, I miss the knight
No more shine in me, I miss the night
I feel in my chest the defeat
I'm standing tall on my feet
No matter the feat
Even though most days I feel like a freak
I let the drugs drag me down
Do I look happy now?
Feel like the sun's blackin' out
Oh, my God, come back around
Show me how
Dust it off, walk it out
I won't take your shit anymore
Stronger now than yesterday
It's all bad, don't be sad
I guess the shit getting old (no, no, no)
No, no, don't tread on me
Don't know my energy
Don't feel like me anymore
Dry my eyes, wipe my mouth
Dust it off, walk it out
I won't take your shit anymore
Stronger now than yesterday
Investigate me just in case at the gate
Invest, encase me, I give chase from the cage
Instigate me once I'm in the gate
I get my demons straight and demonstrate every day
Spend all my days in a daze
While the pressure weighs, I'm raisin' my face
Tryna measure ways to take and I face my reflection
My biggest enemy no question
Unfazed by depression
All of my pain and aggression, compress 'em
Relay them a message
You no longer control me
My rage and my anger deflated
Always frustrated, defensive
I'm prayin' for angels
My efforts are blatantly censored
I'm patient with faith, fully centered
I'm faithfully gauging perceptions
Rampaging n breaking these records
Someday they'll record it
Give praise and a mention eventually
Gimme space
My trajectory no longer aimless
Essentially aim less adventuring
What's the point?
I can barely remember my memories
I got no place in this century
20-20 vision, I see me in 30-30, blurry
I'm ahead of my time
Wish somebody could meddle with mine
I deserve a medal made of metal, so I
Conduct myself properly
Nobody's property
Nobody's toppin' me
Nobody stoppin' me
Overly confident
Scream it from the bottom
Raised up in poverty
I'll do a victory lap when I win, until then, it's a marathon
Hustle up, I'ma profit
Somethin' like a bottle
Gimme love and money
One can watch it double up
I foresee it, hey
Dust it off, walk it out
I won't take your shit anymore
Stronger now than yesterday
It's all bad, don't be sad
I guess the shit getting old (no, no, no)
No, no, don't tread on me
Don't know my energy
Don't feel like me anymore
Dry my eyes, wipe my mouth
Dust it off, walk it out
I won't take your shit anymore
Stronger now than yesterday
I won't take your shit anymore
Stronger now than yesterday
It's all bad, don't be sad
I guess the shit getting old (no, no, no)
No, no, don't tread on me
Don't know my energy
