Lyrics
I do, I don't
I experience both affirmation and negation
It all ends up
Everything eventually concludes
I'm positive, I fill my cup
I maintain a positive attitude and fill my cup
But when a circumstance comes to ahead
When a situation reaches a critical point
I don't do things that I regret
I avoid actions that lead to regret
Like when I'm without a care
When carefree, unexpected challenges arise
A bomb will drop out of thin air
A sudden, significant event occurs
As if they jam me just as I shortcut
It feels as if obstacles are intentionally placed when I take shortcuts
A checkmate pinch that I can't budge
A situation where I'm cornered and unable to move
I never steal, never fight
I never engage in theft or physical conflict
They got me marked with my back to the wall
I'm targeted and facing challenges with my back against the wall
Never got the keys to success that's alright
Success eludes me, but I accept it
When I get up there they push me to fall
When I achieve success, forces push me to fail
Now you can hold me back
Attempts to restrain me
But I won't be your martyr
I won't be a sacrifice for others
Even if I admit I know no way out
Even if I acknowledge I'm stuck
Maybe I stall but then I go even harder
Temporary hesitation, followed by increased determination
Why me?
Questioning why I face challenges
No it don't hardly cease to amaze me
Constantly surprised by difficulties
I pick the pieces off of the pavement
Picking up the pieces after setbacks
Couldn't it be anybody, but why me?
Wondering why it has to be me
Now when I look far back in time
Reflecting on the past
Walking in the footsteps of high art
Following the path of high art
I know there's a trend they're down on luck
Recognizing a trend of misfortune
But they write the rules and get fools to follow
Those in power establish rules and manipulate followers
I can tell you
I can inform you
Now I will dance for the town
Dancing for the community
Stay with me, don't stop when they turn us off
Staying resilient despite opposition
Rock it down how could they mess with us all
Resisting interference with our unity
Fuck it let me be, can talk and do the walk now
Choosing my own path confidently
I never steal, never fight
Reiteration of not engaging in theft or physical conflict
They got me marked with my back to the wall
Facing challenges with my back against the wall
Never got the keys to success that's alright
Acceptance of not having the keys to success
When I get up there they push me to fall
Success leads to external forces pushing for failure
Now you can hold me back
Attempts to hold me back
But I won't be your martyr
Refusing to be a martyr for others
Even if I admit I know no way out
Even if acknowledging being stuck, refusing to give up
Maybe I stall but then I go even harder
Temporary hesitation followed by increased determination
Why me? (Why me?)
Reiteration of questioning why challenges occur
No it don't hardly cease to amaze me (amaze me)
Continued surprise at facing difficulties
I pick the pieces off of the pavement (pavement)
Picking up the pieces after setbacks
Couldn't it be anybody but why me? (Why me?)
Questioning why it has to be me
Why me? (Why me?)
Reiteration of questioning why challenges occur
No it don't hardly cease to amaze me (amaze me)
Continued surprise at facing difficulties
I pick the pieces off of the pavement (pavement)
Picking up the pieces after setbacks
Couldn't it be anybody but why me? (Why me?) (I turn it up)
Questioning why it has to
