Never Back Down Lyrics

I've seen hardships
I've seen failures
I've see the worst of the world, let me tell ya
Turn on the TV and all you see
Is a world full of hate and hypocrisy
I've seen the worst in people, pure evil
They stab you in the front
Then come they come back again for another sequel
It's like life is a movie and we're all the directors
To a B level flick on an old projector
This is the struggle of an independent artist
Self-funded, self-loathing, it's all a big process
Maintaining the art's integrity
While at the same time trying to eat got me losin' sleep
How can you balance the two
When you got nothing to lose
And then you just wanna vent
When you're hittin' the booth
Lemme tell you this is no easy task
But when you really get to thinking 'bout it
You just have to laugh
How else can you deal with a moment so real
I never thought I'd feel but here I am still
Grinding and working to achieve
So I can throw the middle finger up to all who doubted me
Courage is my armor, success is my proof
And my motivation is saying f*ck you
Here I am, just a man as I stand on the battlefield
My music's the shield and
[Chorus:]
I'll never back down, never give up
I will fight till I can't fight anymore
And if I'm knocked down, I will get up
And throw down like I never had before
I think it's time now for me to stick up
For everything that I have been fighting for
You get sound of a man
With nothing to lose, nothing to lose, nothing to lose
I'll never back down, never give up
I will fight till I can't fight anymore
And if I'm knocked down, I will get up
And throw down like I never had before
I think it's time now for me to stick up
For everything that I have been fighting for
You get sound of a man
With nothing to lose, nothing to lose, nothing to lose

The bond that I've made in this life can't be broken The songs that I've wrote through years can't be stolen
They will always be mine, they are my legacy
After I'm dead and gone they will be bumping me
And my music resonates like a bell strike
I keep it real even if you think I'm all hype
But you can never take this moment from me
It's mine to hold on forever, just you wait and see, I
Won the battle and I'm gonna win the war
'cause everything I love is everything I'm fighting for
No excuses, I make my own destiny
So I'll never let you haters get the best of me
I am strong and I hold on even
When I think my grip is slippin'
I pull tight and I stay strong
I am tested on the daily by life
Obstacles in my way, so I must be precise
With every move that I make and every step that I take
I gotta push even harder if I feel I'm about to break
No escape from life, other than that of death
But I ain't going no where
'cause I ain't dead yet
So I'mma push on with every song
And do what I gotta do
Until my breath is gone
I will fight till I can't fight anymore
I'll live life till I can't live anymore
[Chorus:]
I'll never back down, never give up
I will fight till I can't fight anymore
And if I'm knocked down, I will get up
And throw down like I never had before
I think it's time now for me to stick up
For everything that I have been fighting for
You get sound of a man
With nothing to lose, nothing to lose, nothing to lose
I'll never back down, never give up
I will fight till I can't fight anymore
And if I'm knocked down, I will get up
And throw down like I never had before
I think it's time now for me to stick up
For everything that I have been fighting for
You get sound of a man
With nothing to lose, nothing to lose, nothing to lose
