[Verse 1: Veno Da Don]
Hundreds on hundreds, tryna save up for a Patek
You can have it all, all you gotta do is grab it
Money on my mind, Iām done wishing that i had it
Roaches on the counter, I got demons in my attic Made it off the music, guess Iām stunting like my father
Gotta keep it pushing, guess i get it from my mama
Shawty want the Gucci, Louis, Fendi, and the Prada
I just want a uzi tooly, groupie, and the commas
Made it out the gates, made it out the gates
Gone insane but Iām brave, i survived the rain
My people breaking out them chains, just to get a chain
Itās a shame that we slaves to the fucking game
Lord forgive me for my sins, wash em all away
I tell em āthank youā, cuz this shit could be all gone today
Roll a ounce, smoke it all, take it to the brain
I want it all so let me ball, canāt take it to the grave
Know what Iām saying aye
Tell em, āwe running this shitā
I was up in the club, n***as acting up, so i snuck my gun in this bitch
Let me make one thing clear
Iām a n***a with no fear
But these haters wanna pull you back, once they know you near everything you ever wanted
N***a i could never go for that
Mama working two jobs, n***a she aināt going back
I swear all i know is rap, so Imma make it out the trap
My name going āround my city like a fucking cul-de-sac
I put everything into these lines, aināt no holding back
Opportunity be knocking, open up the door for that
Blessings i need more of that
I tell you, āmy devotion and ambitionās all i needā Thats the key
Since they seem to get the notion of seeing it to believe, hereās a peek of all my dreams coming true
Close your mouth, let it breathe n***a
[Chorus: X-Ray]
Sometimes itās hard, man I wanna break down
But I canāt be defeated, thereās people who need me
N***as tryna take my crown
But i canāt be defeated, protecting my kingdom
You prolly heard the word around town
I canāt be defeated, these n***as is sleeping
You aināt awake, how ābout now
I canāt be defeated, I canāt be defeated
Sometimes itās hard, man I wanna break down
But I canāt be defeated, thereās people who need me
N***as tryna take my crown
But i canāt be defeated, protecting my kingdom
You prolly heard the word around town
I canāt be defeated, these n***as is sleeping
You aināt awake, how ābout now
I canāt be defeated, I canāt be defeated
[Verse 2: Veno Da Don]
Iām just tryna let my light shine
Had to take you n***asā shine
Like a thief, you should see me in the night time
In the stuā late night
N***a that was grind time
Yet to reach my prime, but for now i think itās my time
N***a this my turn to flex
All this fucking time invested
They hop on my dick, Iām tryna hop up on a jet
Got it jumping out the gym, now we shooting out the net
In the game you get tecs, just for tryna be a ref
You n***as is not official
Better not have a issue
Professor of my profession, donāt make a n***a dismiss you
Know them bullets gone hit you
They diss you until they miss you
Continue along this cycle, it only start sticking to you
Mutha fucka listen
Mindstate of a n***a thatās aware
Everybody might see, but donāt care
You gotta up your knowledge, or the shit wonāt make sense
Now itās foreign to you
After all, karma was a bitch, pay attention look
[Chorus: X-Ray]
Sometimes itās hard, man I wanna break down
But I canāt be defeated, thereās people who need me
N***as tryna take my crown
But i canāt be defeated, protecting my kingdom
You prolly heard the word around town
I canāt be defeated, these n***as is sleeping
You aināt awake, how ābout now
I canāt be defeated, I canāt be defeated
Sometimes itās hard, man I wanna break down (Veno Da Don: hard times)
But I canāt be defeated, thereās people who need me
N***as tryna take my crown
But i canāt be defeated, (Veno Da Don: i canāt) protecting my kingdom
You prolly heard the word around town
I canāt be defeated, (Veno Da Don: no i canāt) these n***as is sleeping
You aināt awake, how ābout now (Veno Da Don: how ābout now)
I canāt be defeated, I canāt be defeated
[Verse 3: Veno Da Don]
Look me in my eyes, tell me what you see
Iām prolly that n***a that you wanna be
I prolly got some n***as tryna come for me
Iām having conversations with my people just to humble me
Head hyped up, bitch n***as donāt like us
Why would they like us
You are not nothing like us
Damn, would you look at him
Everybody look at him
He repping for the city, gotta notice all the good in him
But the ones in my section really crooked n***a
Type of killers thatāll murk you just for looking n***a
Came a long from jugging
On my Bill Cosby shit, cuz this is proof in the pudding
And Itās hard writing wrongs, when you need to train your penmanship
Hard writing songs until you been thru it
My intuition telling me āYoung n***a, get the benjaminsā
I aināt into wishing for it; Iām more into getting it, Iām diligent
