[Chorus: Ovrkast.]

Ayy, they might take lead, uh, they might take hold, uh

They can't break me, uh, they can't break soul, uh

They can't break me, nah, they can't break soul, nah

They can't break me, uh, they like, they like, uh, ayy, huh

They might take lead, uh, they might take hold, uh

They can't break me, uh, they can't break soul, uh

They can't break soul, they can't break me, nah

They can't break soul, nah, they can't, uh, ayy, uh


[Verse 1: redveil]

Said do I wan' be rich or do I wan' be free?

Words stuck togеther like glue in thе bottom of my seams

Bottom of my dreams still got this shining little beam of hope

One right move done got my motherfucking name afloat

One wrong move could be the last taste of painless tropes

Meanwhile we chasing ice, it's bodies piling in the snow

Piling in the cope for every soul that's eating sleep for dinner

Everyday pragmatic, just compiling what I know

Still chasin' dough 'cause it's innate and automatic

Tryn' unlearn these facets of oppression that I tote

See getting lessons and accepting them the only way you grow

Remember days I wanted to cock a Smith and Wesson, let it blow

And nonetheless, so far I'm a testament of staying afloat

I been progressing ever since, want the same for all of these folks

I share my pigment with 'cause end of the day they want us in rope

And they still got our bodies under the scope

Fuck it, I wish that we was free


[Verse 2: Fly Anakin]

I feel the same but I know they'll probably charge me for it

We built the pot for these reasons, chopping another forest

I need me with a fee, a lock in lil' mama's orbit

She get sloppy, I'm Moses

She like, "Get the fuck up off of me"

I was 'bout to, got comfortable in them house shoes

Your scent won't leave the couch, boo

I, I found a way to change our lives

Break the selfishness, do it all, make it effortless

Teach my shorty everything I know, that's a prerequisite

Pop up with a baby, you ain't even know we was fucking then

Niggas really maybes, keep yeses tucked to the left of him

He stocked up, pop the lock stuck, don't get your thot stuffed

Another mach up, we hold it down for mi casa

Contribute to the pasta, don't you go and get locked up

They cop it cause it's me not luck, don't get it fucked up

It's five hundred degrees in the shade, another day in my maze

Ain't no parades, just stressing out 'til I'm paid

But what's your life?


[Chorus: Ovrkast.]

Ayy, they might take lead, they might take hold

They can't break me, they can't break soul

They can't break me, nah, they can't break soul, nah

They can't break me, they like, they like, uh, ayy, huh

They might take lead, they might take hold

They can't break me, they can't break soul

They can't break soul, they can't break me, nah

They can't break soul, nah, they can't, uh, ayy, hold on

They might take lead, they might take hold

They can't break me, they can't break soul

They can't break soul, they can't break me, nah

They can't break soul, nah, they can't, nah, yeah, huh

They might take lead, they might take hold

They can't break me, they can't break soul

They can't break soul, they can't break me, nah

They can't break soul, nah, they can't, nah, yeah, huh
