Iron Will - Back Down

Up early this morning
I'm plotting and planning my route
To come in and take it
Getting ready for battle
Put two fingers up
For those who didn't think I would make it
They doubted my hunger
They doubted my passion
They doubted my skills
One on one they could never take
It's suicide so they stay away of from me
All of your hating
Could never break me
It's fuel to the fire
Increasing my desire
To rise above and be the best
For every talent show and open mic I ever did
May never ever be in vein
This is about respect and my legacy
Ain't gone be no stopping till they know my name
The city where I from
Made and gave me game
Trials and tribulations going through the pain
Only made me stronger
Surely made me wiser
No matter what they bring
I can rise above it
Make them eat they're words
Get what they deserve
Keep doubting my potential man I love it

I won't back down
I coming to get it
I need it
I want it
I'm coming
I won't back down
I won't back down
I won't back down
I coming to get it
I won't back down
No I won't back down

This one's for anybody
Who's ever had a dream
But they couldn't see
The road to make it happen
Another dream lost
So they crash and burn
Walk away feeling frustrated
I'm saying get up and dust it off
Get down and go for yours
Go like you got no choice
Want it and need it
Like the air you breathe
Say this is my time
And this is my season
If you can think it and see it
Then you can achieve it
When you do what you love
That's reason enough
To fight through pain
And move through the fear
Set sight on goal
Get focused and roll
Road blocks they are surely coming
Got make sure that you're true and grounded
Whatever it takes got to be about
All around me they're screaming real
Some are bogus soon time will tell
It's not about doing a lot talking
Who's really getting it
Is how you know the difference
Let them see through my actions
This ain't no acting
Doubt if they want
Say I don't belong
Make them come again watch them when I win
I'm tunnel vision focused
Goal's already set
So every day I'll be grinding till it's met
I won't back down
Huh
What

I won't back down
I won't back down
No
I won't back down
I won't back down
I won't back down
No
I won't back down

The closer I get
The clearer the view
To gain a better understanding
What it takes to make or break
This game is so demanding
Can't just be about the cashflow
That comes as soon as your fans grow
Give them something they can ride to
Or sit back, relax and vibe to
The kind of music that I'm out here making
Always doing it for my fans sake
When they love it I'm loving it
Never get enough
Always give them more
They just want my best
So that's what I give
I am not a star
I don't want to be
Caught up in lights in the main stream
I do this for those whose got love for me
I give them home grown good music
Whatever I'm going through I use it
I evolve and I grow
To give a better flow
Never counterfeit I stay true
So many moves I'm making
Behind the scenes
Very necessary
To be legendary
I'm out here paying the cost
Remembering what I lost
It helps to keep me focused
Also keep me humble
I'm knowing it's my time
So I come to get it

I won't back down
I won't back down
No
