punches

[Intro] If there was a better way, I'd take it Took so many hits, felt like a Tyson fight Still standing, still breathing Yeah… I'm ready [Hook] I've been taking so much shit, I'm battle-tested Life threw punches, but I never got arrested— By the fear, nah, I broke through the pressure Short fuse, heart cold, but I'm chasing something better I've been there, seen shit, looking for a way out Smoking mad packs, trying to figure my way out I'm ready, fist first, when the world wants war But I'm fighting for my life, I ain't losing no more [Verse 1] Every scar on my skin got a story attached Every loss that I took put a weight on my back I was down on the floor, had to crawl from the dirt Had to learn how to stand when the standing still hurt Life came swinging, I learned how to bob Had me fighting my demons while I'm fighting the odds No referee here, ain't nobody calling time So I tightened my gloves and I stepped in the fight [Hook] I've been taking so much shit, I'm battle-tested Life threw punches, but I never got arrested— By the fear, nah, I broke through the pressure Short fuse, heart cold, but I'm chasing something better I've been there, seen shit, looking for a way out Smoking mad packs, trying to figure my way out I'm ready, fist first, when the world wants war But I'm fighting for my life, I ain't losing no more [Verse 2] I'm bruised but breathing, that's proof I survived Had a thousand reasons just to quit, still alive They can talk from the sidelines, I don't care what they say I've been fighting through the darkness trying to find me a way No more running from the pain, I'm confronting the past Turn the anger into fuel, make the moment last If the pressure wants a fighter, I'm giving it one But the battle ain't the streets—it's becoming someone [Bridge] I took hits… I took losses… I took pain… I paid costs… Now I stand tall When the whole world shakes I ain't looking for a war I'm fighting for my place [Outro] If there was a better way, I'd take it But I learned how to fight when life got complicated Still here, still strong, still finding my way Took a thousand hits… And I'm standing today.
