They can't judge me,
they don't know me,
i won't budge see,
i walk my own streets, (trust me),
I've been lonely,
eyes wide shut...
No matter what they say...
I'm writing my own tale,
i'm fighting my own way,
and i will survive,
No matter what they say...
i've chosen my own way,
to tell you my story,
i know i'll survive...
No matter what they say...
My way or no way,
nonbelievers ok,
i'm a showcase,
how i made it through the cold days,
heard them say, Addis,
mediocre, average,
dead and gone, down and out,
cold-hearted bastard,
anti-social, don't take it personal,
i don't f with anybody,
keep a tight circle,
same goals, same dreams, same values matter,
honesty, loyalty, see how it adds up,
knocked down, a million times,
prayed, on my knees,
darkest hour, g-o-d's power,
got me back on my feet...
No matter what they say...

All alone and I feel I'm on burnin ground
hold my hands, let me know it'll turn around
show me how to be strong I wanna stay alive
oh yes now I know I will survive
All my life I had a dream I'm runnin for
I see the sun come out I see the picture on my wall
I see the birds flying and the clear sky right
...over my head, over my head,
knocked down, a million times,
prayed, on my knees,
darkest hour, g-o-d's power,
got me back on my feet...
No matter what they say...

On the journey to success there's a lotta signs,
want ya to stay in your lane, don't follow mines,
please, can i get a lil' breather,
i used to cut class, but pass tests,
the teacher said i was a cheater, wowww,
thought i was runnin' the streets, i was in libraries,
writing bars, listen to songs, mariah carey,
when a hero comes along, with the strength to carry on,
till i'm on top, with my team, poppin' perignon, yaaaa
They can't judge me,
