K-Rino - Though Skin lyrics

(CHORUS) You might not wanna do it, but ya got to. No one can keep you from it, you're the only person who can stop you. Comprehend, man, we all been on a rough end. The secret to winnin' is havin' tough skin, tough skin, tough skin. You gotta have that tough skin, tough skin. You gotta have that tough skin, tough skin. C'mon, the secret to winnin' is havin' tough skin (VERSE) Every year it's like your hope is gettin' slimmer; Looks like the light inside your eyes is gettin' dimmer The dream use to seem within reach, but now it's farther Went from every day motivated to “why bother?” Use to barely sleep 'cause of grinding, but now you napping Used to be a young energetic person, “what happened?” I remember back when your spirit was way better But time had beat ya down and got hands like Mayweather We used to see the gift that God was bringin' outta you Ya Daddy used to brag, ya Mama was proud of ya You wallowin' and bathin' in the problems, you must want 'em The plans that you made for your future got dust on 'em (CHORUS) You might not wanna do it, but ya got to. No one can keep you from it, you're the only person who can stop you. Comprehend, man, we all been on a rough end. The secret to winnin' is havin' tough skin, tough skin, tough skin. You gotta have that tough skin, tough skin. You gotta have that tough skin, tough skin. C'mon, the secret to winnin' is havin' tough skin (VERSE) Remember all the pa**ion that you had from the start? You got caught up in the business and forgot about the art The love that the hood provided is what made you Forgot about the gratification that people gave you Despite who supported your vision is now aborted Your overall perception of music is now distorted And all the great pieces of work you ever recorded Got disregarded, 'cause you feel you haven't been rewarded All 'cause you got deceived by this fraud biz And became oblivious to what the real reward is The true prize is the minute you learn to right And the change a song can make in a person's life (CHORUS) You might not wanna do it, but ya got to. No one can keep you from it, you're the only person who can stop you. Comprehend, man, we all been on a rough end. The secret to winnin' is havin' tough skin, tough skin, tough skin. You gotta have that tough skin, tough skin. You gotta have that tough skin, tough skin. C'mon, the secret to winnin' is havin' tough skin (VERSE) You get a good idea and fling it into the distance When what you need to do is speak into existence And I'm not sayin' that you'll have it in a week But that status can be reached If you just act on that belief Some dreams get k**ed and some die Most people get punked after one try “you should just give up” are the words of a dumb guy Golden opportunities are hard to come by I won't ever judge at no time I ain't tryna know ya business to be honest, I don't even wanna know mine Who will be the winner? Hopefully us Then they tell you success is supposed to tough (CHORUS) You might not wanna do it, but ya got to. No one can keep you from it, you're the only person who can stop you. Comprehend, man, we all been on a rough end. The secret to winnin' is havin' tough skin, tough skin, tough skin. You gotta have that tough skin, tough skin. You gotta have that tough skin, tough skin. C'mon, the secret to winnin' is havin' tough skin
