Can't Back Down Lyrics

Keep on going you just gotta fight it (Gotta fight it)

Keep on going cause it's not too late (It's not too late)

You can't back down (I can't back down), you can't back down

Keep on going you just gotta fight it (Gotta fight it)

Keep on going cause it's never too late (Nah, it's not too late ya'll)

You can't back down (Can't back down), you can't back down

Have you ever had the dreaming moment that you wish would last

If only given the opportunity, if only given the chance

To make something out of nothing, and build it top class

Step up to the mic and put the haters on blast

That's where I'm at now with the thing called music

Yea you might laugh and some might call me stupid

But I'm just a simple man with a talent and a dream

Trying to provide for mine and maybe stack a little cream

But I've never had nothing, had to make the sacrifice

To get where I'm going, yea I've lived a hard life

So now I'm in a position, it's either do or die

I got to stay focused and refuse to be denied

This thing has got to work, nah, it ain't over for me

I got too many people depending on me

It's blistering cold on the road to my fate

King of the thrown, crowned a heavyweight

Keep on going you just gotta fight it (Gotta fight it)

Keep on going cause it's not too late (It's not too late)

You can't back down (I can't back down), you can't back down

Keep on going you just gotta fight it (Gotta fight it)

Keep on going cause it's never too late (Nah, it's not too late ya'll)

You can't back down (Can't back down), you can't back down

I gone to producers on my celly from fiends on my pager

Pockets getting bigger but the hate is getting major

Promoters talking checks, saying that I got it

Snakes in them suits trying to get up in my pockets

But allow you to take from mine, ya'll can keep on wishing

I started at the bottom, a single man on a mission

One love for the realest who got me spreading word of mouth

If you wasn't down then what makes you think I need you now

Back against the wall on my feet through every round

No matter how hard it gets, I can never back down

If you count me down and out you better stop and do the math

Never follow the same road cause I set my own path

I've never backed down, nah I never look back

Feet moving forward, middle finger to the past

Trumping all the kings, this the jokers last laugh

SouthBound Productions, C-E-O of my staff

Keep on going you just gotta fight it (Gotta fight it)

Keep on going cause it's not too late (It's not too late)

You can't back down (I can't back down), you can't back down

Keep on going you just gotta fight it (Gotta fight it)

Keep on going cause it's never too late (Nah, it's not too late ya'll)

You can't back down (Can't back down), you can't back down

I'm on top of my game with my city's embrace

It started with a mic and a packet of tapes

It's more than just a dream, yea it's more than a passion

I'm more than just words, I'm a man about his actions

I'm a man, I'm a soldier, I refuse to see defeat

Blood, sweat, and tears still standing on my feet

Like a fighter in a corner with his back against the ropes

Guarantee I'm gonna make it, it's more than just a hope

So with my pen and my pad, it's the realest I ever wrote

One love to all my people, it's the realest I ever spoke

Haters keep talking trying to knock me down

Cause they can't face the fact, I'm a king of this town

I'm the voice of my city, yea I give it my all

The ones down from the start, you know I love you all

And now I'm at the point it's either swim or drown

I'm coming for my crown, yea I can't back down

Keep on going you just gotta fight it (Gotta fight it)

Keep on going cause it's not too late (It's not too late)

You can't back down (I can't back down), you can't back down

Keep on going you just gotta fight it (Gotta fight it)

Keep on going cause it's never too late (Nah, it's not too late ya'll)

You can't back down (Can't back down), you can't back down

Keep on going you just gotta fight it

Keep on going cause it's not too late

You can't back down, you can't back down

Keep on going you just gotta fight it

Keep on going cause it's never too late

You can't back down, you can't back down
