Count Me Out

Lyrics

[Intro: Young Noble, Aleah Paige & Both] They tried to count me out They tried to count me out They tried to count me out [Verse 1: Young Noble] It's like I'm better than I ever been (Ever been) Dedicated, more focused than I ever been (Than I ever been) I'm the truth if it ever was (Was) This that Outlaw love, that's forever love (C'mon) I put my heart in e'y line (Yeah) A lil' food for thought a sparkin' of the minds (Minds) They would rather see me back on the block clutchin' a nine (Nine) Labeled a statistic, dead or doin' time And I know they never counted on me beatin' the odds (Beatin' the odds) My tax is up the park, my kids doin' fine Independent it's all dependin' on my grind This is all gods plan, guess he meant for me to shine The lord don't make mistakes He gon' test you e'yday just to see if you break (Break) Just to see if you gon' stand up and carry the weight (Weight) See if you deserve the shit you ask for when you pray See if you gon' have the faith when e'ything good for ya (Good for ya) You gotta pray when e'ything goin' good for ya (C'mon) [Chorus: Young Noble, Noble & Aleah Paige] They tried to count me out They tried to count me out They tried to count me out These niggas tried to count me out the game They tried to count me out They tried to count me out They tried to count me out These niggas tried to count me out the game [Verse 2: Trae Tha Truth] Feelin' like the world left me for dead somewhere on my own Though it was wrong, somehow I got the fuck back in my zone I'm one of the realest to ever do it as king on the throne I put my team in position, in a league of my own They told me never lose my faith and fight well under pressure Less than a week later, my brother was dead on the stretcher If pain was a story then tell them my life is a lecture I told the devil if he's slippin' this choper gon' wet'cha I adapt to my situation, hustle everything Guess I'm a menace that shine' in the dark weavin' through heavy rain And still I stand they hear me louder now like heavy gain My emotion is so much colder now like heavy caine Heavy chains around they lies the truth will set 'em free Show 'em what they wasn't told and lead 'em where they could see I keep it G in life 'cause that's just what I chose to be So many try to duplicate but they was never me Yeah, they was never me Look, they can try but they will never be [Chorus: Noble, Noble & Aleah Paige & Akk] They tried to count me out They tried to count me out They tried to count me out These niggas tried to count me out the game They tried to count me out They tried to count me out (Nobe, It's Akk) They tried to count me out These niggas tried to count me out the game [Verse: Akk] Grew up in a single house, raised by a single mother No daddy to help us out, had to get it from the gutter They say since I'm trappin' I'm a bad example for my brother But even my brother know, my sister and my mother know That a nigga grindin' I'm tryin' to get up out the struggle Went from nick 'n' dimin' to rhymin' I had to switch the hustle Facin' five years at eighteen, he thought I was finished But got house arrest and even judge [?] don't know why he did it Walkin' out the court room like thank you god Try to lock me for mad years, but I can't be stopped Then I went to school got my music engineer degree Pennin' my own label, Brillionair records LLC You can't name another nigga that done done it young as me They tried to count me out but it ain't that simple as one, two, three And now I'm takin' trips to them places you wanna be To foreign countries where they exchangin' the currency And now I'm seein' things that they said that I'd never see That's probably 'cause I'm in that place they said I'd never be Sheesh [Chorus: Young Noble, Noble & Aleah Paige] They tried to count me out They tried to count me out They tried to count me out These niggas tried to count me out the game They tried to count me out They tried to count me out They tried to count me out These niggas tried to count me out the game Out the game [Outro: Barack Obama] Don't tell me words don't matter (Yeah) I have a dream, just words... We hold these truths to be self-evident That all men are created equal, just words... We have nothin' to fear but fear itself, just words... Just speeches, but speeches don't solve all problems But what is also true, is if we can not inspire the country to believe again The American people want to believe in change again Don't tell me words don't matter *audience cheering*
