Won't Be Defeated (feat. Alrice)
Everything you're looking for is everything you shy away from
That's why you'll never leave the place you're tryna fly away from
My time here is limited that's why I gotta say some
Making stuff that's meaningful cause don't nobody make none
I forged myself inside the darkness of a one bedroom apartment
Now I'm harder than the wood floors I'm tougher than the carpets
Every verse I write I'm always giving fully me
Protecting that inner child you'll never get to bully me
They saying I should give it up because I'm getting old
But I can feel something pulling me it's coming from my soul
One day you're gonna wake and see I got a song with Cole
So maybe you should wait and see the greatest story told
Uh
Who woulda thunk it
The quiet skinny kid in the corner just got it jumping
I know that I'm succeeding if I made you feel something
And showed you anybody can come up from being nothing
Ain't nobody doing nothing like that
I'm alright
I got what I'm needing
I'm just fine
I won't be defeated
I'm alright
That has a new meaning
Let my body know through my soul
Know that I mean it
Oh
Know that I mean it
Yeah yeah
So you can tell by my demeanor I mean it
Life's a movie not a game and I know cause I've seen it
In the past I was just playing now I know I got meaning
I looked within and then I found everything that I'm needing
It feels like everyone is saying what I can't be
But I'm just living by a vision that they can't see
Cause when they think about their dreams they don't see them achieving it
You listen to enough of that you really start believing it
So now I'm wising up and letting go what they expect of me
I'm getting back for all the times they disrespected me
And that includes all the women who rejected me
You want me now but can't have me respectfully
I'm alright
I got what I'm needing
I'm just fine
I won't be defeated
I'm alright
That has a new meaning
Let my body know through my soul
Know that I mean it
Oh
Know that I mean it
That's why you'll never leave the place you're tryna fly away from
My time here is limited that's why I gotta say some
Making stuff that's meaningful cause don't nobody make none
I forged myself inside the darkness of a one bedroom apartment
Now I'm harder than the wood floors I'm tougher than the carpets
Every verse I write I'm always giving fully me
Protecting that inner child you'll never get to bully me
They saying I should give it up because I'm getting old
