[Intro]

Yeah, let's get it


[Verse 1]

It's you against the world, better figure out fast

Who the hell you can trust if you wanna make it past

All the fakes and the lust, better figure out fast

Nah, this ain't what you want, you don't want it that bad

Can you give up all your stuff? Pay attention to the facts

And forget the media, figure out your own path?

Can you figure out love or do you feel wrath?

Can you hone that feelin' and create an impact? Uh

Go get it, if you want it, go get it, get with it

Iin't nobody gon' give it, your ticket, gonna take a quick minute

Don't quit it, figure out your own limit, life is a test

The best make progress, figure out what is next

And carve a path, yes, no, they never second-guess

Take a chance, no regret, if you want it, take a breath

Give your blood and your sweat, uh


[Pre-Chorus]

When everything just breaks from all of your mistakes

Don't let yourself feel down, don't let yourself just drown

Only when you've lost everything are you free to do anything

Only when you've lost everything are you free to do anything

Only when you've lost everything are you free to do anything

And then, when you lost everything, you lose the chains that let you free


[Chorus]

And when everything is gone and you're feelin' all alone

Don't let life get you down, you can figure it out (Out, out)

And when everything is gone and you're feelin' all alone

Don't let life get you down, you can figure it out (Out, out)


[Verse 2]

I'm a sick nut, I like a quick buck

Wanna know what? I'm 'bout to blow up

Caffeine in my cup, not lean in the blood

On the scene like a flood and I've been through the mud

No, I can't get enough, like a challenge, make it tough

No, it's not a bluff 'cause I live for this stuff

And I take off the gloves just to break all my knucks

When I'm down on my luck, pick myself back up, uh

Heavy hitter and you know I'm not a quitter

No beginner, gonna be a steady winner

Maybe sinner, every time I rhyme, it's killer

What's for dinner? 'Bout to be the breadwinner

No cake 'cause it's not my birthday

It's a workday, every day's a Thursday

Man, I'm thirsty for the grind and word play

You can't hurt me 'cause I already hurt me (Already hurt me, me)


[Pre-Chorus]

When everything just breaks from all of your mistakes

Don't let yourself feel down, don't let yourself just drown

Only when you've lost everything are you free to do anything

Only when you've lost everything are you free to do anything

Only when you've lost everything are you free to do anything

And then, when you lost everything, you lose the chains that let you free


[Chorus]

And when everything is gone and you're feelin' all alone

Don't let life get you down, you could figure it out (Out, out)

And when everything is gone and you're feelin' all alone

Don't let life get you down, you could figure it out (Out, out)

(Figure it out, figure it out, figure it out)
