[Verse 1] I'm starting to see clearer then I ever have Bipolar, tell me which one is my better half Eyes colder 'cause I slipped up on my better path My shoulders is so chipped I almost never laugh You can hear my revving raps Sounding like the engine of a 747 crash Back out the trash, I was never more but shredding ash Now I'm feeling sharper than a heavy a** machete slash Give me lip, cut your head in half, you won't get it back Had some dead weight on my back, I got rid of that Got my head straight and left the flask in my livid past And I ain't bitter of a quitter but consider that I lost a few rings I'm trying to do things to get it back 'Cause life isn't all roses and daffodils Especially when you rose from The bullet holes and smashed up pills Made it out alive but pissed away a half a mil Trying to keep a smile, I'm having a hard time laughing still [Hook x2] Rite Hook I said, to keep this smile While they keep looking down on me Knocked down, I get up, this is how to be Knocked down, I get up, this is how to be Knocked down, I get up, this is how to be (Knocked down) x4 [Verse 2] Back with a ton fire, allow me to run it by ya The stunning ire and the anger of a cunning liar Each thought rapidly popped, like a gun is fired So am I son of Sam or damn it am I some messiah? It's hunger, fire, pain and anger in a jambalaya But they don't want to see it cooking, they just want to fry ya So for a minute I felt tired and uninspired It's not long before regrets come running by you My stomach tied up in knots, I write up a blots And sides of them plop with thoughts that I have outfoxed Too many things to get here than just retire and watch Started feeling like a fighter that's still dying to box So until the day I die in a box I'mma persevere through everything and anything I know that it hurts to hear, but I ain't going nowhere I'm just all set up to win Then even when I get knocked down I know that I'll get up again [Hook x2] Rite Hook I said, to keep this smile While they keep looking down on me Knocked down, I get up, this is how to be Knocked down, I get up, this is how to be Knocked down, I get up, this is how to be (Knocked down) x4
