Intro:
Yea! Midwest style right here man, double O shit
Knight!
Hook:
Oh they try to play me oh they try to play me
Oh they overlook me never been the favorite
Why they wanna doubt, why they wanna doubt
Never count em out, never count me out
Oh they try to play me oh they try to play me
Oh they overlook me never been the favorite
Why they wanna doubt, why they wanna doubt
Never count em out, never count me out
Verse 1:
I done had ups and downs, never threw in the towel
I do not seek revenge, I let it come around
Look what I overcame, had to make leaps and bounds
They didn't know my name now I'm the one they all speaking 'bout
There's no scenic route, you gotta seek it out
People I thought I needed, I had to move without
I used to feel defeated, now they're the ones losing out
They feeling stupid now, know who the truth is now, yuh!
Hook:
Oh they try to play me oh they try to play me
Oh they overlook me never been the favorite
Why they wanna doubt, why they wanna doubt
Never count me out, never count me out
Oh they try to play me oh they try to play me
Oh they overlook me never been the favorite
Why they wanna doubt, why they wanna doubt
Never count me out, never count me out
Verse 2:
Mama told me stay in school in case I need a plan B
Didn't wanna go at first the college life demanding
Plus I gotta set a great example for the family
People hate when I'm just tryna be all that I can be
They don't know about none of the stress that I done went through
Had to help out with the car note I was filling big shoes
Working over thirty hours just to bring a bag in
Plus I'm tryna make it with this rap while taking classes
It weighed down on me a lot
Had to let all of you niggas know in case that y'all forgot
While you boys was sleeping on me I was working on a plot
Figured out the combination now I got this thing on lock, ah
Hook:
Oh they try to play me oh they try to play me
Oh they overlook me never been the favorite
Why they wanna doubt, why they wanna doubt
Never count me out, never count me out
Oh they try to play me oh they try to play me
Oh they overlook me never been the favorite
Why they wanna doubt, why they wanna doubt
Never count me out, never count me out
