Can't Stop Won't Stop - Fire and Rain lyrics

[Verse 1: Davey] I'm from the biggest little city in the wild wild west Reno, now you know, it's the city I rep A little rain, but mostly fire Though I tire and perspire through the mire I will rise again Not from the city of sin, from the city that wins White trash, catching fire, burning bright for my kin Took my lessons pushing wood every day in the street Get up early in the morning, cause my daddy always told me boy 'Wake up Jacob Day's a-breaking Coffee's boiling and the bread's a-baking Roll out cowboy Come and get it Before I throw it out and spit in the sk**et' Yeah so I finish up my breakfast, put away the ham Now I never put a T on the end of can Cantankerous hankering banging down the double doors Hear my spurs jingle-jangle as I mount my horse [Chorus] I've seen fire and I've seen rain, yea-ah I've seen fire and I've seen rain, yea-ah I've seen fire and I've seen rain, yea-ah I've seen fire and I've seen rain, yea-ah [Verse 2: David Eff] Now check it, I grew up inside the 495 In the shadow of the capitol is where I resided Learned to talk real slick, and to keep my stride Cause deep down I knew my future was already decided I had a lot of people telling me off though Had me marching in the line of a familiar barcode But I restocked my reeboks, my walk was so co*ky On the way I took some cheap shots, that would never stop me So with nothing to my name but some rhymes and game I took my dream to the coast, seeking fortune and fame And I've been panning for gold but it ain't come up yet It takes time to blow so I don't get upset Cause I'm on it like a bonnet on a pioneer And I'm the king like Crocket on this wild frontier To my peers taking shots you can be my guest Cause the Eff won't rest, 'til I'm known as the best [Chorus] [Verse 3: Davey] No more changing horses in the middle of the stream Chasing dreams full steam, earn esteem with the team We bringing meat to the table, putting marrow in your bones To your head, shoulders, knees, and toes Eyes, ears, mouth, and nose Then we tickling your senses you ain't even know you had So get your hands in the air like you was hailing a cab And if you're down in the dumps and it ain't going swell Here's a little anecdote that'll do ya well: It takes both fire and rain to nourish a forest To make it flourish make it grow and get that timber to tower Deriving power from the sun and putting roots to soil 'Til the seed that you sow becomes a mighty sequoia So its a given I'm not gonna give in I just keep on living You know I never quit cause I'm driven And when I'm done I'll pa** the mic to my next of kin And 'til we meet again, I'll be dropping demos from my coffin [Chorus] x2
