[Intro: Skye Wanda]
Oh oh
Yeah yeah
Oh
[Chorus: Skye Wanda]
Sure I'm gonna make it that's a given
Kicking and screaming my way to the top
If you thought I was defeated you been dreaming
I've been on my mission it's about to get hot yeah
Hungry hearts have no mercy
With daggers on my back I'ma succeed
Even if you try you should know this:
You can't keep me, rock bottom
You can't keep me, rock bottom
You can't keep me
[Verse 1: Skye Wanda]
(Yo!)
I sat to at first he stroke my clitoris
Look that be the pleasure I experienced from your visit
He said "Open wide on condition you come correct
And you squirtin' equal success cause you already the bеst"
Rock bottom had me wearin' a size 30 waiting tablеs at Pavillion
Daily prayers led me to a haven of complacency
I just nestled on insufficiency
Mind infested with self loathe
Crying out to the Holy ghost
Rock bottom is the catalyst to finding God
He says "How will I exhibit my power if it isn't tested?"
Sun City was a blessing
Top 16 epic but the devil came in 3 forms that was my lesson
And for the life of God
Can I never hear a "Why?"
And can you sympathize and realise I almost died inside
To be unsexed was a plea
I beseeched that I couldn't feel
Had to punch myself a couple of times, none of it was real
Rock bottom had me settlin' for insufficient love
A neatly rolled joint and a couple of cold hugs
Then it's January, February baby born in March
But co-conspirator's MIA, now you're in the dark
Mercedes me Lagos would be my come up
In the midst of all the plight that's the reason that I choose to stand up
No blessing is a curse and I may be among the dirt (Oh)
But I climb a step each day when I choose to put me first
[Chorus: Skye Wanda & Beast]
Sure I'm gonna make it that's a given (That's a given)
Kicking and screaming my way to the top (Oh oh)
If you thought I was defeated you been dreaming (You been dreaming)
I've been on my mission it's about to get hot yeah (Oh)
Hungry hearts have no mercy
With daggers on my back I'ma succeed (Oh)
Even if you try you should know this: (Even if you try you should know this YEAH)
You can't keep me, rock bottom (Oh oh)
You can't keep me, rock bottom
(Uh, yeah)
You can't keep me
[Verse 2: Beast]
You probably look at him and think it's all Gravy
See him on you TV screens and think the boy made it
Music's too wavy
Album woah crazy
Then they went and stopped the production line like oh gradies
Yeah see I was young but I was young but I was Crowned when I made the song for the 'rents
That was my biggest cheque since I didn't receive a cent
From the sales, Kodwa nga dimmer sas' phanta nama gents
Umqondo wathi "Ima qoqi ikhwama la siya bencher"
Man I had to cut the label
Like counterfeit mech
To win you'll be able if down to dig dirt
So we started our own stable even though it still hurt, eish
Man I been workin' on that project since birth
Kodwa ubaba wangfundisa wathi "Sani indoda ayikhali
Noma u lokhu u rapper kuze k'qashe intlantsi izinto ayikhanyi
But your music is he here to stay eyningi kulezi ezinye ayihlali
Mfana if I had my way ngabe ngik' fumbathisa imali and tell you get em son"
So I took all of that and ran with it
Now my name pops up when they mention the dopest candidates
Needed a song with Tumi, Tribal asked if I can handle it
Told him "Come on yo', clearly you don't understand it"
See coz rock bottom made me challenge myself more than ever
It's funny that uk'hlakanipha uk'yeka uk'skeema o clever
And if you ever screwed me over know you made me better
I really hope your pride allows you ass to hear this letter
[Chorus: Skye Wanda]
Sure I'm gonna make it that's a given (That's a given)
Kicking and screaming my way to the top (Yeah)
If you thought I was defeated you been dreaming (You been dreaming)
I've been on my mission it's about to get hot yeah
Hungry hearts have no mercy
With daggers on my back I'ma succeed yeah
Even if you try you should know this: (Yeah you should know this:)
You can't keep me, rock bottom (Rock bottom you can't keep me)
You can't keep me, rock bottom (Rock bottom you can't keep me no, oh)
You can't keep me (Eh hey)
