[Verse 1]
You want bring me down, You can not. You will not
You want to play me out. You can not. You will not
Throw dirt when I'm down, You can not. You will not
If you try stop me now. You can not. You will not
[Pre-Chorus]
Persevere, What don't kill you makes you stronger
Persevere, from trailer to white collar
Persevere, Let the hate bulid you up
And don't give a fuck
[Chorus]
I will survive pressures of life
I won't deny I didn't want this life
If problems arise, cut'em down to size
I will survive and immortalize
[Verse 2]
Hard times, you can lose your mind sometimes
Hard times leavin' the crimes to lifelines
Hard times expecting the blind to lead the blind
Hard times look in the mirror and hate what you find
But why, pick up your brains, walk through the storm
Hard times, really keepin' it raw
Fight back, mind over matter attack
Don't slack program your mind back on track
[Chorus]
You want bring me down, You can not. You will not
You want to play me out. You can not. You will not
Throw dirt when I'm down, You can not. You will not
If you try stop me now. You can not. You will not
[Pre-Chorus]
Persevere, What don't kill you makes you stronger
Persevere, from trailer to white collar
Persevere, Let the hate bulid you up
And don't give a fuck
[Chorus]
I will survive pressures of life
I won't deny I didn't want this life
If problems arise, cut'em down to size
I will survive and immortalize
[Verse 2]
Hard times, you can lose your mind sometimes
Hard times leavin' the crimes to lifelines
Hard times expecting the blind to lead the blind
Hard times look in the mirror and hate what you find
But why, pick up your brains, walk through the storm
Hard times, really keepin' it raw
Fight back, mind over matter attack
Don't slack program your mind back on track
[Chorus]
