Still Got Up

Intro Yeah I fell back nine, still got up ten Real pain, no pretend Uh Verse 1 Came from the bottom, don’t ask me how Empty pockets, heavy crown Mama cried, I stayed proud Had to be grown when I was a child Same jeans, different days Same dreams, harder ways They laughed when I had nothin’ Now they quiet when I’m paid Bitches doubted, niggas switched Had to boss up real quick No fairy tales in my life I was married to the grit I ain’t pretty ‘cause I’m lucky I’m pretty ‘cause I fought Every scar on my body Come from lessons that I bought Pre-Chorus I ain’t cry for attention I cried ‘cause I was tired Had my back against the wall Still the room caught fire Hook I fell down nine, still got up ten Hood raised, but I made it rich They ain’t help me, they watched me bend Now they wanna say we friends I was broke, I was hurt, I was hungry Now my name got weight, don’t touch me If you never bled for your glow Don’t tell me how this struggle go Verse 2 I seen girls turn fake for a bag Seen love turn cold real fast Men promised me the world Left me trauma in a trash bag Had to hustle with my chest out Heart cold, nails done I ain’t soft ‘cause I’m a woman I’m a problem when I want some Rent due, lights off Still wrote dreams in my notes Everybody want the shine Nobody want the rope I ain’t need no handouts I hand-built my throne Now they mad I don’t bow I remember being alone Pre-Chorus I don’t flex for the cameras I flex for who I was That broke girl in the mirror Who ain’t never give up Hook I fell down nine, still got up ten Hood raised, but I made it rich They ain’t help me, they watched me bend Now they wanna say we friends I was broke, I was hurt, I was hungry Now my name got weight, don’t touch me If you never bled for your glow Don’t tell me how this struggle go Bridge This for the girls with the fire inside Who survived when the odds said die Still cute, still rude, still real Still here, still hungry, still wild Outro Yeah I ain’t lucky I’m earned I ain’t soft I’m seasoned
