Fortune - Beat The Odds lyrics

Hook They tryna pull you down They wanna see you fall Go on and do us proud I know you gon beat the odds They tryna pull you down They wanna see you fall Go on and do us proud I know you gon beat the odds Verse 1 You work hard everyday, believe in your pa**ion Put love in all you do, let it be seen in your actions And that will speak volumes, don’t scream for attention Haters, ungazihluphi ngabo, not even a mention This is good advice here, you can feel I’m a father I have no time or energy to deal with the drama All these rappers popping up kodwa baringa amanga And it’s all for trophies, bafun’ uk’wina ama-SAMA See I come from an era, we wrote and spoke from our hearts No smokescreens and mirrors, quote the dopest of bars I’ll show you the ropes if you asked, before you’re broken apart Even without them shiny things, I hope you know you’re a star You need to be a little careful, what you think can appear I know there’s cats at the top of the charts that’s thinking I’m mad But I’mm a keep it level with you, since I’m a dad I’ve seen many who refuse to take the hint now they sad Hook They tryna pull you down They wanna see you fall Go on and do us proud I know you gon beat the odds They tryna pull you down They wanna see you fall Go on and do us proud I know you gon beat the odds Verse 2 We fought for the change but we got the small money Now we think that we’re rich Sweet sixteens in the bars, buy a drink for the b**h Shark a** rapper who be biting flows Who wanna swim with the fish I was one of the top three until the other two rappers went bubble gum Now I don’t f**k with them I put my nine on the floor for those who like to jump the gun These lames be saying bars for every wack rhyme That’s synonymous to D-day, that’s a deadline You need to focus on the source of your wealth, you ain’t no gangsta Cut the gun bars, that be the cause of your d**h I’m not a preacher, I’m a teacher tryna reach-a on a deeper Knowledge, wisdom, understanding, talking is cheaper If it’s true that fortune favours fools then I’m an idiot You couldn’t flow sick if you rhymes on your period Hook They tryna pull you down They wanna see you fall Go on and do us proud I know you gon beat the odds They tryna pull you down They wanna see you fall Go on and do us proud I know you gon beat the odds
