(My baby really gon' pray for me) yeah

('Cause you've always been there for me)

(Cryin' out just to make a different, and to make on move on is a defiantly) defiantly

Yeah

No, I won't back down, I can't, I won't, I can't

Hate feeling like I'm in matrix

Wake up, new day, same shit

That's why I gotta rip a page out

Change up, make a new script

Hate feeling like I'm in the matrix

Wake up, new day, same shit

That's why I gotta keep my head down

I can't make excuses

I'm a culprit to my own warnings and advice (I won't back down)

Too many times went and thought twice (I won't back down)

Using my vices as a life line, but really they just undermine (I won't back down)

All the progress that I built behind, a strong foundation (I won't back down)

One step forward and two step backs to the same situation

What's the balance between patience and procrastination

And I still hate waiting too high on expectations

Too low on ourselves to make up the greatness

We just conflicted like peace of mind or pieces of millions

Mind move a million miles an hour

'Til the clock strike midnight, yeah, bitch I crank up

I remember penny pinching, now I'm adding zeros to ones

Yeah, bitch it's my time

Following the order, we ain't living right man

Yeah, we all need to wake up

Keep it live, life my high

On the island chillin with some Mai tais

I know, I know, they can't stop me now

I won't, I won't, no I won't back down

I know, I know, they can't stop me now

I won't, I won't, no I won't back down

Hate feeling like I'm in matrix

Wake up, new day, same shit

That's why I gotta rip a page out

Change up, make a new script

Hate feeling like I'm in the matrix

Wake up, (yeah) new day, same shit

That's why I gotta keep my head down

I can't make excuses

How old would you be

If you never knew the day that you were born? (Think about it)

See we constructed to malfunction

Following a number we don't even know

Time is a myth and it's pierced in our brain

Like a thorn, any day we can go

So, we gotta make the most of it

All that shame, gotta make a ghost of it

White noise playing on my shoulder

Never been tamed, I owe nothin'

No stains on me no odor

So fresh so clean, no poser

Burning that midnight oil

They cannot match my motor, focused

Always been a loner, solo, dolo

Going with the flow, I'm never controlling

Hate feeling like I'm in matrix

Wake up, new day, same shit

That's why I gotta rip a page out

Change up, make a new script

Hate feeling like I'm in the matrix

Wake up, new day, same shit

That's why I gotta keep my head down

I can't make excuses

I know, I know, they can't stop me now

I won't, I won't, no I won't back down

I know, I know, they can't stop me now

I won't, I won't, no I won't back down
