[Verse 1: Sl!ck]
Me and bro bomb on evil doers, you know the biz
You oughta stream, it's a hit, rock him when I smash fists
Got haters close to breaking, I took a deep breath and I awakened
Diamonds in my mouth, Silver Fang drip
Abandonment, how I leave the opps standing stiff
Like a mannequin, some students turn to Anakin
But I ain’t ever teach you to be this weak
So you have the nerve to diss me? You gon see defeat
I'm just tryna make it day by day, I swear
But I'll never ever fade out gray as my hair
I’m a hero in a way I'll save my peers
Won't nobody take my place, I'll stay right here
See, I'm covered in scars
I done been through it all
I don't want it no more
But I'll never fall
[Chorus: McGwire]
I ain't hate my life on the day to day
And I’mma find my way to fade away
But I ain’t that close to breaking
Yeah, I ain't that close to breaking, yeah
Yeah, I got my woes that I hate to face
And I ain’t got no one to take my place
But I ain't that close to breaking
Yeah, I ain't that close to breaking, yeah
[Verse 2: PFV]
Half shift labor, now I'm close to break
Tried to stake my pay and then it rose to hate
But I know the way to scope a change and grow to take
My own place at the golden gate
And I’m bridging all the gaps that held me close to quake
I feel indifferent to the people that don't know the way
I get to skipping all the lines because I know I'm great
Although I'm hidden by the lies, they done and told to fake, yeah
New plane, new high for a whole life
Twenty two's scoped in, call it foresight
Payed dues, now it's coming out at no price
Down bad, but I'm never feeling no fight
Yeah, and now my lows a deposit
I gotta show I'm a project and just turn over to protect
I had a notion to dock it, but like the ocean not stopping
I'm on a wave all right
[Chorus: McGwire]
I ain't hate my life on the day to day
And I'mma find my way to fade away
But I ain't that close to breaking
Yeah, I ain't that close to breaking, yeah
Yeah, I got my woes that I hate to face
And I ain't got no one to take my place
But I ain't that close to breaking
Yeah, I ain't that close to breaking, yeah
[Bridge: McGwire]
Flow like water, give em smoke like gas
If they test my spot I'm gonna smoke their pack
Yeah, now you close to fading
And I ain't that close to breaking
Saying oh my god, how he blow so fast
I was born for the top and they know that facts
Yeah, but y'all don't have to say it
Cause I ain't that close to breaking
Flow like water, give em smoke like gas
If they test my spot I'm gonna smoke their pack
Yeah, now you close to fading
And I ain't that close to breaking
Saying oh my god, how he blow so fast
I was born for the top and they know that facts
Yeah, but y'all don't have to say it
Cause I ain't that close to breaking
[Chorus: McGwire]
I ain't hate my life on the day to day
And I'mma find my way to fade away
But I ain't that close to breaking
Yeah, I ain't that close to breaking, yeah
Yeah, I got my woes that I hate to face
And I ain't got no one to take my place
But I ain't that close to breaking
Yeah, I ain't that close to breaking, yeah
