Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Whenever you feel like letting go

And you've got your back against the wall

Hold on, hold on

'Cause you're gonna take a few low blows

I know you can feel those broken bones

Just hold on, hold on

[Verse 2]

'Cause you are undefeatable

Skepta, yeah

Just, first place, never settle for less

What's the point in trying, if you ain't trying your best?

They wanna see me six feet under, but I'm watching my steps

Now everybody watching me like Jay Z watches the Nets

Don't see myself on a skateboard, but I stay on my grind

Aiming for the top, and I won't stop till I cross that finish line

I see it like the deaf, I listen like the blind

So if I can't see them scheming, I can still see the signs

[Verse 3]

I never count the days, I make the days count

They wanna take my crown, so I swim when they wanna see me drown

Smile when they wanna see me frown

Stand up when they wanna see me down

New and improved attitude, you don't wanna see me now

They said I can't do it, but I did it

Now they love me all over the world

'Cause they say that my style is so prolific

If I said it, I live it, the black Scot diss it

Fresh haircut and a brand new suit, lift up the trophy and kiss it

[Verse 4]

Whenever you feel like letting go

And you've got your back against the wall

Hold on, just hold on

'Cause you're gonna take a few low blows

And I know you feel those broken bones

Just hold on, just hold on

'Cause you are undefeatable

You are undefeatable

Oh, whoa-oh

You are undefeatable

[Verse 5]

Tell the paparazzi, I'm going in tonight

And if anybody wanna stop me, you're gonna need some kryptonite

I don't wanna sound impolite

But I been sitting here waiting my turn

So if you still don't know, a boy, better know, better watch and learn

I let my left foot rest on the side

Only my right foot's touching the pedal

Losing is not an option, so I know that I gotta come with something special

I'm a winner, JME on my neck

That's my gold medal

I was underground, now it's time to take this shit to another level

[Verse 6]

I never count the days, I make the days count

They wanna take my crown, so I swim when they wanna see me drown

Smile when they wanna see me frown

Stand up when they wanna see me down

New and improved attitude, you don't wanna see me now

I got nothing to prove

I sit back looking at the game from a birds eye view

Then I make my move

Never take my foot off the gas, I'ma go hard till I blow that fuse

'Cause the moment you feel like giving up, that's the moment you lose

[Verse 7]

Whenever you feel like letting go

And you've got your back against the wall

Hold on, just hold on

'Cause you're gonna take a few low blows

And I know you feel those broken bones

Just hold on, just hold on

'Cause you are undefeatable
