[Verse 1]
Hit, after hit, after hit, after hit
Rebuild brick, after brick, after brick
Till I slip up and drink and I pick up a script
Till I'm back on that floor tryna rip up my wrist
I ain't never going back to the way I was
I pray to god for that change, he ain't take my course
I've taken loss, after loss, after loss, after loss
Lost friend, after friend, after friend, and for what?
I would give them my life, I would die for the loss
Someone would sell me for ice, that's the price of a rock
I feel fucked all the time, that is life when you're lost
All the drugs, all the sluts, all the time that I've lost
Who am I but a shit cunt stuck in a spin
Tryna gamble his life but he can't get a win
What am I, but some spit slung stepped on a mic, in a booth full of smoke and some ash in a drink
Like, everyday's harder, fly sharks that swim up
Still got scars, my dark past will dig up
Still self harm, I fell hard from slip ups
Sometimes it's once we lock behind triggers, figures
That's why my enemies close and I'm paranoid, I got best friends at my throat
I feel my life's at a bitter end
I've been a mess, still pretend that I'm fine but I lie when I'm with my friends
In my head's voice is that toy with me when I'm stressed
Feel like that void I avoided was in my head
Filled with my boy, I will always be in his debt
Always be his, can't destroy what will never end
[Chorus]
They took the best of me
They'll take the rest of me
Until I'm gone
They keep on testing me
They thinking less of me
I know they wrong
They wanna pressure me
They want the death of me
I hope I'm strong
They wanna get to me
I won't accept defeat
I know I'm strong
They took the best of me
They'll take the rest of me
Until I'm gone
They keep on testing me
They thinking less of me
I know they wrong
They wanna pressure me
They want the death of me
I hope I'm strong
They wanna get to me
I won't accept defeat
I know I'm strong
[Verse 2]
Everybody fake in this game, I can tell
I don't wanna play, I won't play myself
Everybody wanna play someone else
I can only play myself, I saved myself
Came from the dirt and the dust, my stuck life
Dreamin' I'd lean into drunk nights
I was screamin' like "fuck life"
Please let me bleed till I run dry
Leave and I'd just die
Till I seen in my son's eyes
Same thing I saw in his mum's, I was sure I could love
I was nothing before, but a war in my thoughts
I was caught in the torment I fought in my young life
Now I walk in the sunlight smilin'
Can't bring me down when I'm flyin'
Can't fuck with my vibe these days
Had many drop lines, I don't bite these days
I'm alive these days , I see change for better
Then I ride each wave , my feet [?] the centre of my truck
Keep safe and seize pain forever
I survive these rains if we stay together cause
[Interlude]
This is my lifeline babe
I see lights in the pipeline babe
I work too hard
No more lifeline days
No more cause cause I sliced my veins
No more new scars
[Pre-Chorus]
This is the new me
This is me makin' my movie
This is me seein' improvement
This is the difference between bein' beaten and beatin' up losers
This is my future
[Chorus]
They took the best of me
They'll take the rest of me
Until I'm gone
They keep on testin' me
They thinkin' less of me
I know they wrong
They wanna pressure me
They want the death of me
I hope I'm strong
They wanna get to me
I won't accept defeat
I know I'm strong
They took the best of me
They'll take the rest of me
Until I'm gone
They keep on testin' me
They thinkin' less of me
I know they wrong
They wanna pressure me
They want the death of me
I hope I'm strong
They wanna get to me
I won't accept defeat
I know I'm strong
