This story talks about the spirit and energy of Flawless Real Talk – having come from a small town in Rhode Island (USA), and wanting to break out into a larger scene despite those that clearly didn’t think he’d make it.
[Intro - Flawless]:
It all starts with you, and
So does unbelieveable
But who are they to say my dreams are unachieveable?
And even if I'm underqualified
I will not apologize for feeling unbeatable
[Verse 1 - Flawless]:
My life is such a movie
And everything they threw me
Was liken[?] to arm-strength[?]
I never let it get to me
People said it was hard
Well, anyone could have fooled me
I'm brushing off my shoulders
You freshmen-a never have schooled me
I done came from the trenches
Tryin' to get the world's attention
Now they talk about the best
And I'm an honourable mention
Tell them if it's gonna cost me
Then don't call in your connection
Only person that's gon' feel me
Is the one in my reflection
Cos I know... yeah
[Chorus - Freek]:
We are gonna make it through this, we
Won't back out
And you can do whatever to us but, but...
We're not slowing down (Woo!)
We're not slowing down (Real)
We're not slowing down
We're not slowing down
We're not slowing down
[Verse 1 - Flawless]:
People think I'm selling (wait)
They don't know I'm sellling hope
You ain't come up where I came up
Trust me, then you'll never know
Expecting you to never grow
But I grew, and got these tattoos to cover my scars
And now they never show
Mind over matter
Don't mind cos you don't matter
I'm blind to all the chatter
My eyes are on the ladder
My climb is getting badder
My grind is getting at-a
Point where i gotta see mine is getting fatter
Never cared about the ones that ever doubted my dreams, you see
They never had what I've been showing my team
The confidence to take risks, with no doubt in between
How you think we got this far in the scene?
I only know one thing...
[Chorus - Freek]:
We are gonna make it through this, we
Won't back out
And you can do whatever to us but, but...
We're not slowing down (Woo! ... Real)
We're not slowing down
We're not slowing down
We're not slowing down
We're not slowing down
