Song Lyrics

I've spent years on the scene and i've done my time
I was never given anything, i've earned what's mine
I defy all lines, I will not retreat
You can't buy me, I spit right in the face of defeat

This is my class; top brass, a bold breed
A caliber conceived, birthed and born to lead
To be the first pick, first string, first in, front line
Screaming into the sky, the world is mine!

I define defiance, represent rebellion
Embody true autonomy, have been through hell
And still do what I choose, been battered and bruised
Yeah i've taken many beatings and gladly paid all my dues
But I refuse to dummy down and follow the herd
I'm gonna say what I believe and stand by my word
See, i've never known the taste of a silver spoon
Never took the blue pill, not to mention i'm immune

Can't be controlled, won't do what i'm told
I'm not a number, a name tag, or fit into a mold
As my story unfolds I will proudly stand
Forever unapologetically; I don't give a damn
This is

Who I am (what I believe)
Who I am (with every breath I breathe)
Who I am (tried and true)
The only thing to be in this world is you

Substance, with every single syllable I bring
'Cause you can talk all day long and never say a thing
We don't even need the music for me to convey i'm not playing
I'll write it out in braille, you can feel what i'm saying
That's real

No facade, I will never be part
Of propped up pop propaganda, fake art
With no heart, no soul, I cannot be sold
I'll be the bright light in a dark mine that's black as coal

Whether i'm mocked, blocked or knocked still i'll never stop
Like a rock, as consistent as hands on a clock
You can bet i'm gonna be locked, loaded, ready for a test
I don't walk and talk, I do better than the best.

No vest on my chest, i'm not afraid to die
I've been blessed, so I live every minute i'm alive
And I take this vow; while i'm here above ground
Never will I ever back up or bow down

When death comes to get me i've got no regrets
I threw it all on the table when I placed my bet
Said it all, did it all, and i'd do it again just so
So the world will know

Who I am (what I believe)
Who I am (with every breath I breathe)
Who I am (tried and true)
The only thing to be in this world is you

The takeover
The takeover
Avery watts
White knight worldwide media

Cock back the hammer, the takeover has begun
Were millions strong now all united as one
We compose the whole globe from the east to the west
And if seeing is believing
You're looking at the best

Patiently wait, anticipating the arrival
Of a crew to lead the whole world through and shine a light
So we can make it through these dark times and spread a new word
For now is the moment
And we will be heard

We
One youth, one nation
We
One generation
We
United like soldiers
We are the takeover

We've been through so many years of tears, sacrifice and pain
Gave buckets of sweat, drip-dried our last vein
Watched everything we've ever loved forever say goodbye
But instead of killing us,
It brought us to life

We live each day to the fullest now and we choose to make a change
In return our own existence is what we exchange
If we have to give up everything to do something great
We are ready, we are willing,
Cause this is our fate

We are the
We are the
We are the
On your feet

We
One youth, one nation
We
One generation
We
United like soldiers
We are the takeover
