[Intro: Lil Yodaa]

You gotta hold a nigga down

Just don't count a nigga out

Tell 'em "Cancel all the doubt"

Just don't count a nigga out


[Verse 1: Lil Yodaa]

Look, ya, I like to kill 'em with kindness

I had to show 'em my shine like I'm trying to literally find 'em

I winded up smacking the taste out they mouth, I was trying to sit there in silence

I wanna be hidden with views but everybody likes to feed off the violence

Well I guess, I've gotta be wild and I told 'em I tried to be nice

But they didn't wanna be cordial, so I'm portable with a device

That's a disposable, that was custodial

Work, I'm too clean but I come from the dirty

Ain't gon' jump into bed until later on and I'm getting right back to it early

I-I don't lay there that long when the money be calling, I heard it from miles away

Chasing a dream like it's running from me that's the only reason I look tired today

But I could never be too tired to get up and get it, I'm high and just wired to take

I'm inspired to be of the higher than most

I feel like the Messiah, I gotta be great, that's a minimum

I'ma be larger than life

If you know I'm as small as whatever, whoever want it, they can call it a night

You and yours can call me together

Forever I be of the bigger at heart

'Cause my mind is stronger than yours

Every day I'ma go a little harder

Hit the road and just follow the curve


[Pre-Chorus: Lil Yodaa]

Another failed attempt to stop a nigga by a long shot

Don't know who that was meant for but you definitely got the wrong guy

I can't wait to fall for them, did not one call me in

Either way it go, I work 'cause I knew one day I would win


[Chorus: Lil Yodaa]

Just don't count a nigga out

I've been down since it began

You gotta hold a nigga down

'Cause right now I feel like you mad

Just don't count a nigga out

It's in the palm of your hand

Tell 'em "Cancel all the doubt"

I think I got a solid plan

Just don't count a nigga out


[Verse 2: Damius]

Without a doubt I've been knocked down

You left your mark without a doubt

Had to get up, held my chin up

If you fall you better get up

I'm still here and I'm still standing

Think I'll quit, misunderstanding

Heart of a champion, I'm truly stressed

So I gotta get a few things off my chest

I'm feeling like I'm walking on a tightrope (Tightrope)

I'm still keeping middle fingers high though (High though)

Entertain you here with a side-note (Side-note)

And tell that to your thot but it ain't right though (Right though)

Keep it down and your funds locked up in your crib

Where Damius will win the better date, worth the risk

I'm giving my all 'cause that's all that I give

And making you mad gives me so much bliss

Once again I proved them wrong

They still say I don't belong

Nothing's changed, I'm heard it all

Excuses still flow from their jaw

People close to me that hate me, they don't want me celebrating

See the demon levitating, leaving them all aggravated

Gave everyone many years in advance

No longer a reason for me to hold back

Used to be confidence that I lack

Now I have success within my grasp

Ones doubted me since the beginning

Hate me now 'cause I'm not forgetting

The way they treated me when I started

Proving them wrong is now cathartic


[Pre-Chorus: Lil Yodaa]

Another failed attempt to stop a nigga by a long shot

Don't know who that was meant for but you definitely got the wrong guy

I can't wait to fall for them, did not one call me in

Either way it go, I work 'cause I knew one day I would win


[Chorus: Lil Yodaa]

Just don't count a nigga out

I've been down since it began

You gotta hold a nigga down

'Cause right now I feel like you mad

Just don't count a nigga out

It's in the palm of your hand

Tell 'em "Cancel all the doubt"

I think I got a solid plan

Just don't count a nigga out


[Verse 3: Minus]

(Minus, Minus, Minus)

I'm a cocaine cowboy

Go numb from the drip in my mouth boy

Stomped on like I'm cut from the team

Ah fuck, y'all don't really wanna see what I'm 'bout (Oi)

White boy looking lean, that don't mean I ain't holding back power from my dreams or a bad choice

Every day I keep weighing my options and deal with these robbers and movers like tadpoles

Y'a-y'all better get it right

That's M-I-N-U-S breaking a penal fight

I'll smack the taste out your face if that's not the case it's on y'all to set a price

Y'all fucking with a skeleton

In Hell's Kitchen I spark the flame, the beef well

And the heat I keep spitting, repeat

And my pen is a beast, gon' reach relevancy

Now that severed the heat

Was too metal when a beast all

Ripping like vring chainsaw, let it swing

And it's off with his head again

Be misled by irrelevancy

Got a bird that's a pelican

Bring those FEDs, time served, ain't no telling in me

That's all they selling y'all, dreams

Ain't no telling where I'm going with this game

But homie all I know is I'm be the one to know and lead the metamorphose dreams

Set a course for the chorus if you feel like it's forced

And homie you might take a minute, just breathe well

I resort to the source if it's blood and it's gore

Then it's hard for a man to stay clean, well

From the wall to the floor I feel no remorse

But it's sort of important to see Hell

I guess y'all could take it from me

I've been landing on my feet like a gat on a beat, well


[Pre-Chorus: Lil Yodaa]

Another failed attempt to stop a nigga by a long shot

Don't know who that was meant for but you definitely got the wrong guy

I can't wait to fall for them, did not one call me in

Either way it go, I work 'cause I knew one day I would win


[Chorus: Lil Yodaa]

Just don't count a nigga out

I've been down since it began

You gotta hold a nigga down

'Cause right now I feel like you mad

Just don't count a nigga out

It's in the palm of your hand

Tell 'em "Cancel all the doubt"

I think I got a solid plan

Just don't count a nigga out


[Outro: Lil Yodaa]

Just don't count a nigga out

You gotta hold a nigga down

Just don't count a nigga out

Tell 'em "Cancel all the doubt"

Just don't count a nigga out
