Undertow

We’re on the rise you should probably face it
Went from an afterthought to the main topic of the conversation
Get back to the grinding you should stop the hating
Cause persistence is key, and our progression is the confirmation
Giving attention to critics is like swimming with sharks
They smell blood and they’re tempted to rip you apart
It’s all love but we’ve gotta stay smart
Cause all the snakes and the fakes that reside in the dark
Can’t wait to say that you went the wrong way when you followed your heart
No matter where you go, through all the highs and lows
There’s one thing you should know
It’s never been about the fall, it’s what happens when you get back up
Throughout the ebb and flow, we all will learn to grow
Just keep your head afloat, don’t get lost in the undertow
When you’re coming from the bottom then there’s probably scars
For everybody that got a problem acknowledging ours
We didn’t follow your guidelines on how to be fraud
So I know watching from the sidelines got to be hard
You keep on hoping we fail, just know that hope will diminish you
May feel good in the moment but slowly it makes you miserable
Know that it makes you cynical, know it’s gotta be killing you
Don’t focus on what we did, focus on what you didn’t do
You can call us what you like but you outta be precise
Too much time on the web, don’t get caught up in the hype
No matter where you go, through all the highs and lows
There’s one thing you should know
It’s never been about the fall, it’s what happens when you get back up
Throughout the ebb and flow, we all will learn to grow
Just keep your head afloat, don’t get lost in the undertow
You try to brush it off your shoulder but it eats at your brain
Now it seems that the goal you were seeking is strange
So you’re locked in a paradox seeking a change
Cause it hurts when the world is critiquing your pain
You passed judgment on me the moment I stepped through the door
Like seriously yo, who you think this record is for
I put my demons on display and I let you explore
In hopes that maybe just maybe one day it’ll help you with yours
No matter where you go, through all the highs and lows
There’s one thing you should know
It’s never been about the fall, it’s what happens when you get back up
No matter where you go, through all the highs and lows
There’s one thing you should know
It’s never been about the fall, it’s what happens when you get back up
Throughout the ebb and flow, we all will learn to grow
Just keep your head afloat, don’t get lost in the undertow
