Intro (Bobby Bucher):
You ain't give me nothing but I'm still standing here
You ain't feed me nothing but I'm still standing here
VERSE 1 (illmac):
Blessings made me grateful, hardship that I go through
Failures made me hungry, success has made me hopeful
Habits made me stagnant but women made me feel high
Demons made me bitter but angels made me realize
Ego made me feel bigger than my city, had to leave
had to check my ego, that was baggage with a travel fee
fighting made me peaceful, learning made me teach you
Same love I gave you, that's the same love I leave you
The block made me, my pops made me,
them lil charges them cops gave me
throw shots, them shots made me
them brawls at the park made me
caught fade, got my shit rocked then fought daily
spit like Doc Dre n Pac raised me
Biggie made me hypnotized, Hovah made me throw up Roc
Bitches made me empathize, then they made a rolling rock
40 made a game spitter, Shady made a monster
then God made me choose when the Devil made an offer
yeah
HOOK (Bobby Bucher):
You ain't give me nothing but I'm still standing here
You ain't feed me nothing but I'm still standing here
And you can take it all away, but you can never take my soul
you can take it all away, I did that on my own
VERSE 2 (illmac):
I been about it, they falsify while I'm real about it
Fuck what you heard, fuck what you feel about it
I laugh my way to the bank pocketing bus passes
Ironic, getting cuffed is getting fucked backwards
I got it, demons get acknowledged
Don't mistake my silence but the studio's my solace
I blew out the flame watched the cig smoking
Cracked a lid open, yeah I been on one
That's shit I been knowing
First met you, got chills. use to think it meant something
Maybe that's just you, on my grave tiptoeing
See the world in faded colors, call log of faded numbers
Ain't feeling jaded the feelings gone, I make another
take another shot, roll another wood make another song, fill another void
While I bare it all
Miss another call, break another heart, build another wall when there's one destroyed
I swear to God that...
HOOK (Bobby Bucher):
You ain't give me nothing but I'm still standing here
You ain't feed me nothing but I'm still standing here
And you can take it all away, but you can never take my soul
you can take it all away, I did that on my own
I'm still standing here...
I'm still standing here...
I'm still standing here...
and you can take it...
