Push On

(album: B.A.A.A. - 2019)

There's some sharp ass gravel
On the path less traveled (Okay)
Man, it's a long road but you keep on walking
And the whole time, you gon' hear people talking
Anything you try, they doubting it
Your self-esteem, they try to challenge it
"You ain't good enough, you won't amount to shit
You ain't strong enough, you ain't talented"
They try to make you quit, try to blur your focus
But pay attention and you'll surely notice
That the people spouting off all them tired lines
Be the same ones sitting on the sidelines
I ain't down with them, I'm found in the ring
I swing 'round after round after round and get it in
I might get knocked down and knocked down again
But I'm getting tee'd at ref and go pound for ten
I'm kinda crazy
You ain't want no part of it
Taking a bad beating, I've been trained, I'm a part of it
Blood of a king in my veins and my heart and shit
Muscles and ligaments, tendons and cartilage
Ten thousand hours? Fuck ten thousand hours
I kick out these hours, I got ten thousand doubters
They each get devoured, my speech gonna get power
My reach can get wider, my beats can get louder
When I get on top of that hill
I'll stop and have me a drink and just chill
'Til then everything I work on get took in that sled that I'm pushing ain't come with no cushion
Let me tell you something man
I been doing this for a long ass time (Uh-huh)
Took some hard ass falls after long ass climbs (Yeah)
On New Year's Eve, I sang Auld Lang Syne (Hey)
And I'm gonna get mine

I been kicked and spit on
I seen whatever could go wrong go wrong
That's alright, I get up (Yes I do), I push on
I been rich, I been broke (Yes I have)
I've seen all my money go up in smoke (Mmhmm)
That's alright (Yeah), I get up, I push on

Yo, I ain't no god, it don't take much to ruin me
I done blown lot of golden opportunities
Participated in blatant buffoonery
Looked in that mirror like "What did you do to me?"
Hated myself, I berated myself
Most of my obstacles I created myself
I done been to the bottom, I swam in that murk
Hung with them leeches and creatures and lurk
I'm doing that work, I am dirty and sweaty
Anything you tell me, I heard it already
I fought my way out of impossible corners
I'm not gonna go stopping or start following orders
I ain't got no limits, no stopping it, no borders
That clock gonna keep ticking, that clock gonna get shorter and shorter
No warning, no weather reporter to prepare you for the inevitable
When you see it pass in a brief flash
If you feel me then feel free at last
I ain't been the same since my man E passed
I used to let life really just speed past
I got a clean slate, a empty flask
You wanna bet on me, you gonna see some cash
You wanna bet against me, go and try your luck
I really don't give a fuck

I been kicked and spit on
I seen whatever could go wrong go wrong
That's alright (Yes it is), I get up (Yes I do), I push on
I been rich, I been broke (Yeah)
I've seen all my money go up in smoke
That's alright (Mmm), I get up (Yeah), I push on (You're damn right)
Check it out, hey

Oh my my, oh my my, oh yes, yes, yes
I should have "S" on my cape and my chest
I'm a superhero bitch
I'm a superhero bitch
I'm a superhero bitch
I'm a superhero bitch, everybody now
Oh my my, oh my my, oh yes, yes, yes
I should have "S" on my cape and my chest
I'm a superhero bitch
I'm a superhero bitch
I'm a superhero bitch
I'm a superhero bitch

That's alright, I get up, I push on
That's alright, I get up, I push on
