[Intro]
Can't get rid of me that easily
[Verse 1]
Yeah, I bite off a little more than I can chew
Lucky for me, I like the taste of black and blue (Blue)
I might be on the ground tonight
A little lost without a light
But don’t underestimate the fight in me, ee-ee-ee
[Pre-Chorus]
Just when you thought I was down for the count (Hell nah)
When you were ready to count me out, I-I-I
I come back a little stronger
Cash in on my karma, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Just when you thought I would call it a night (Uh-huh)
Hangin' it up and out to dry
I guess no one ever warned you
Somebody should've told you
[Chorus]
Huh, that shit is not on my watch
(Give up, back down, fit in, sеll out, move on, step off)
That shit is not on my watch
(Hang up, stay down, fall in, clock out, hold on, hold off)
[Verse 2]
I bet you thought you had mе pegged, huh?
You thought that I was at my edge, nah
Yeah, well just give me second
And I’ll be showin' you a me you ain't ever seen
It's like I'm walkin' on a tightrope
Oh, but I don't even mind though
Yeah, that's just the way I thrive so
So I know that nothing’s ever gonna be the end of me
[Pre-Chorus]
Just when you thought I was down for the count (Hell nah)
When you were ready to count me out, I-I-I
I come back a little stronger
Cash in on my karma, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Just when you thought I would call it a night (Uh-huh)
Hangin’ it up and out to dry
I guess no one ever warned you
Somebody should've told you
[Chorus]
Huh, that shit is not on my watch
(Give up, back down, fit in, sell out, move on, step off)
That shit is not on my watch
(Hang up, stay down, fall in, clock out, hold on, hold off)
[Instrumental Break / Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
Hmm, yeah, ayy-ayy
Just when you thought I was down for the count (Hell nah)
When you were ready to count me out, I-I-I
I come back a little stronger
Cash in on my karma, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Just when you thought I would call it a night (Uh-huh)
Hangin’ it up and out to dry
I guess no one ever warned you
Somebody should've told you
[Chorus]
That shit is not on my watch
(Give up, back down, fit in, sell out, move on, step off)
That shit is not on my watch
(Hang up, stay down, fall in, clock out, hold on, hold off)
[Outro]
It's like I'm walkin’ on a tightrope
Yeah, it's just the way I thrive so, so I know
That nothing's ever gonna be the end of me
(Give up, back down, fit in, sell out, move on, step off)
Nothing's ever gonna be the end of me
(Hang up, stay down, fall in, clock out, hold on, hold off)
Nothing's ever gonna be the end of me
