Invincible

So this is us standing on the bridge We've fought through hell, sometimes jus' to feed Last year was ill, we had to sail on the knees Work for food, we could hardly make some G's Damn, we could barely pay the bills My mind hoping we'd be walking on the greens Head on, we had to meet the bees Sometimes stung, it made us feel the heat Hustle strong, even if it meant we were beat Work hard, a brother couldn't afford to sit Sweat hard, but never could rip the sweets Hey - I mean - the year had so much to teach I'm staring at the stars, I'm about to make the wish New year's come, I've to put it on the list I'm done living like this, like I'm among the least This life's a gamble, win to earn the eat System's glitching, I need to hit the switch My hands twitching, I need to be on the win Y'all - do you even feel how i feel? Like I've been robbed of my entire will to live Why can't I when I'm tranna win for real? Will I lie? when I'm tranna live the deal Leave my mark in the stars, this has been the dream Life's tough tho, will I leave the streets? I need to be on top, what the hell am I doin' in this silt? Feels like I'm sinking, though I wanna swim on the beach I've been fishing my entire life, but never caught some fish But I'm crushing the system, I'm gonna pimp the wheels I ain't asking for permission, I'm gonna use the whip This year's my year, Imma take it for a spin.
