No matter what they say...
I'm writing my own tale,
I'm fighting my own way,
and I will survive.
No matter what they say...
I've chosen my own way,
to tell you my story,
I know I'll survive...
No matter what they say...
My way or no way,
nonbelievers ok,
I'm a showcase,
how I made it through the cold days,
heard them say, Addis,
mediocre, average,
dead and gone, down and out,
cold-hearted b******,
anti-social, don't take it personal,
I don't f*** with anybody,
keep a tight circle,
same goals, same dreams, same values matter,
honesty, loyalty, see how it adds up.
Knocked down, a million times,
prayed, on my knees,
darkest hour, g-o-d's power,
got me back on my feet...
No matter what they say...
I'm writing my own tale,
I'm fighting my own way,
and I will survive.
No matter what they say...
I've chosen my own way,
to tell you my story,
I know I'll survive...
No matter what they say...
All alone and I feel I'm on burnin' ground
hold my hands, let me know it'll turn around
show me how to be strong I wanna stay alive
Oh yes now I know I will survive
All my life I had a dream I'm runnin' for
I see the sun come out I see the picture on my wall
I see the birds flying and the clear sky right
...over my head, over my head.

No matter what they say...
They can't judge me,
they don't know me,
I won't budge see,
I walk my own streets, (trust me)
Trust me, I've been lonely,
eyes wide shut...
