Promise Feat Jhene Aiko – Against The Odds Lyrics

Artist: Promise Feat Jhene Aiko
Song: Against The Odds

Finally the doors open for me • Chaufeur
Got a little somethin’ on the table • Coaster
Used to wanna sign to a label I was so sure
Plus I was deep in the hole • Gopher

Butchu reap watchu sow
If u reach in ya soul n’ speak watchu know when its yo’ turn
N’ you hangin’ on a mantle in a gold earn from a slow burn they’ll remember you for yo’ words
N’ I’m all about soul/sole • loafers

So it’s all good I mean it’s kosher
N’ when my singles on every ringer
They gon’ wish they never did doubt the kid • Jerry Springer
But if I get too gassed before I blow up

Then my integrity may not hold up • So hol’ up
I don’t know what stations’ll play this
But before I get dollars its gotta make sense/cents
What I gotta prove? • I have nothing to prove

And I cannot lose • There’s nothing to lose
Against who? I can’t lose
Against you I can’t lose They say when you’re an inspiration the competition disappears
So my 1st week calculus ain’ neccessar’

Yeah. I ain’ listen to what they say
Cuz when i’m Mr. Big they gon’ Snicker at my Pay Day
They ain’t thorough man I know I was stayin’ uptown
Now I’m sayin’ Duck Down in my burrow/borough like a mole

When I get outta this world man I know
I’ma get all of the pears that I’m owed
Til’ then I’ma keep makin’ good music for the children
And for some of the young adults who feel it

And for some adults who still hip
bridgin’ the gap and ain’t afraid to say they listen to rap
But if I get too gassed before I blow up
Then my integrity may not hold up • So hol’ up

I don’t know what stations’ll play this
But before I get dollars its gotta make sense/cents
I don’t want for nothin’ cuz I got it all
In a race with no one so I’m taking it all

After all there’s nothin’ to win at all
When you’re chasing the wind
Labels that I wanted to sign wit want me to shine
They don’t want me to rhyme they want me to lie n’ sign posters

I was like “you outta ya mind” so I had to decline
and now I’m just rappin’ to find closure
But I know when the sun/son shines its over
So compromise my art? No sir

If the sky don’t part my hopes will
help me to smile at a dark night/knight
