"Victory (Remix)" lyrics

I could have stayed down
I could let it all take hold of me
I could have laid down
But I'm right back on my feet

Yeah

Start at the top, let's start at the beginning
Walk this road with me
I tell you what I'm thinking
Pass the time with me
While I get in my feelings
I'ma put it on the table just listen

Life on repeat like syncopated beats
If I said I was okay, I'd be lying through my teeth
So many pitfalls have knocked me off my feet
But I get back up to the beat

I could have stayed down
I could let it all take hold of me
I could have laid down
But I'm right back on my feet
And I surprised that I'm alive and
I'm still fighting, I'm surviving
But I'm right back on my feet

Yeah, someone once said
If I chase my dreams and I face my demons
I'll feel good in my head
I'd defeat all the monsters livin' in my closet
Creepin' up under my bed
Every night they're watchin' me and they're tauntin' me
And they're hauntin' me till I fall asleep
I gotta finally put 'em to rest, yeah

Burn up my history
And all those years of misery
'Cause every time they show their face we disagree
I know that, this is a different me
I'm standin' up and I'm livin' free
And I'll take my throne and crown and claim my victory

I could have stayed down
I could let it all take hold of me
I could have laid down
But I'm right back on my feet
(You'll never stop me)
And I surprised that I'm alive and
I'm still fighting, I'm surviving
But I'm right back on my feet

I've been underrated, underestimated
I've lived with my self hatred
Been through the fire, been through the wire
Been stepped on but I still aspire
For great things, not ratings
No small things, I do brave tings
No sucker shit, I ain't desperate
Them dark days, I'm over it

I, I see the mountains, they better move
Ain't no stoppin' me from doin' what I'm 'bout to do
Though I've fallen my story's not complete
It ain't over till the day I taste victory
Oh yeah

(It ain't over till the day I taste victory)
(Come on)
(It ain't over)

I could have stayed down
I could let it all take hold of me
I could have laid down
(I could have laid down)
But I'm right back on my feet
(You'll never stop me)
And I surprised that I'm alive and
I'm still fighting, I'm surviving
But I'm right back on my feet
Yeah

It's never over
It's never over
It ain't over till the day I taste victory
It's never over (Yeah)
It's never over
It ain't over till the day I taste victory
