Knock Me Down

[Verse 1: AfroLegacy]
They can try and take my life now, break me down until there's nothing
But bet I will fight each time now, hateful crowds, but I know they're bluffing
The war will rage, they've torn our page, adoring fans, see them on stage
Their frame will change, this scornful gaze wants more than peace, don't walk away
Nah, come back and make this right, wonder why we hit on sight
Wonder why I spent my nights working to the bone, so I can survive
And I know this side isn't like what I have shown before
But when you take what I care about, it's time I go to war
Beaten and broken and down in the dirt, but the gloves stay tight, see I'm ready for this now
Got his words in my head, held up by a thread when I get back up from the ground
Watch a fire's been lit and I'm not gonna quit, right or wrong, it's the same thing
Everything's changing, live with my wit, I will not fall down, I will stand up proud and shout
Made mistakes and caused this track between us, but I know it won't beat us
And I know they're looking down, they forgive you in my thoughts, I still see us
I will put in all this work and I'll make them admit
This girl's done good, she's clearly been in the dirt for this shit

[Chorus: Archer]
Trading blows toe to toe on the battleground
See me put them up, go another round
Paint it red with the blood splatter on the ground
But I'ma get back up when you knock me down
Oh, knock me down, oh, knock me down
I'ma get back up when you knock me down
Oh, knock me down, oh, knock me down
I'ma get back up when you knock me down

[Verse 2: Archer]
On my own, on the ropes
But I know I'll never let it go
See me beaten, but you'll never know
Got you thinking that you're in control
Out of sight, yeah, I'm out of yours
Fists ready and they never slow
Many enemies, I fought them all
Still here, still standing though
Try to throw me in the dirt, they didn't know that I was born from it
Staying strong through the hurt, staying ready cause there's more coming
Hold the line because I'm done running, stay one hundred, never shortcoming
They all wanna be my enemy, you don't stand a chance and I'm not bluffing
Never seen how I intervene, gonna start war with them all
Never flee, gotta stand to me and it doesn't matter if I fall
Got between, but you're not a Jinx, just know I got you if you call
Step on me because you think I'm small, mood changes when we start to brawl
Fire burning all within
Doing what I gotta do to win
Put my anger's power in the fist
Combos in the wrist, I ain't ever missed
Fight in the face of adversity
Facing the power assertively
Know I grew so imperfectly
Nothing you could do that's hurting me

[Chorus: Archer]
Trading blows toe to toe on the battleground
See me put them up, go another round
Paint it red with the blood splatter on the ground
But I'ma get back up when you knock me down
Oh, knock me down, oh, knock me down
I'ma get back up when you knock me down
Oh, knock me down, oh, knock me down
I'ma get back up when you knock me down
