Lyrics Headstrong - KRAFTY

Don't get it twisted, anybody can be a hater
Being in a team of players don't mean you're safer
They wanna see us lower than them
They wanna stunt our growth, don't want us growing again
Your girl could pick any man to blow in the ends
Your man could make a hoe of your friend
So keep your radar blinking
It ain't paranoia to wonder what they are thinking
But don't display your inkling
Just keep it locked until you strike, knowledge is power
Don't follow them down the road, swallow, devour the info
It ain't checkers, it's chess with poker faces
I've been in broken places, lost focus, demotivated
But I came back headstrong, they wanted to get me gone
But not yet, they kicked the shit at me, that's what I fed on
Breadcrumbs, yeah, I found my way back
I've been this way since way back and now it's pay back, what

At first it came to me by surprise
Didn't matter to me though, I'm twice as nice
And haters are usually dead wrong
That's why I'm headstrong
That's why I'm headstrong, headstrong
It ain't right at all
Praying on our downfall
I don't say it to sound cool
They be hating
I'm saying, they're praying on our downfall

Headstrong but they been hating on me
I walked fields alone with snakes at my feet
But I'll be damned if I ain't chasing my dream
Kick me in my strong head, I still ain't facing defeat
Some people have mistakes that others won't waiver
Skeletons in your closet, you gotta be a renovator
Don't sweat the doubts, they'll go later
But sometimes, you can be your own hater
We let the outside in, consuming the worst
Our brains are full with too many words
We ain't only human, you heard? Nah, there's more to us
But we don't wanna step out of line and cause a fuss
There's nothing wrong with being selfish, in fact
If you want me to be selfless
Then that's you being selfish, you twat
I learned a long time ago
Everyone else got a path and you gotta find your own

At first it came to me by surprise
Didn't matter to me though, I'm twice as nice
And haters are usually dead wrong
That's why I'm headstrong
That's why I'm headstrong, headstrong
It ain't right at all
Praying on our downfall
I don't say it to sound cool
They be hating
I'm saying, they're praying on our downfall

Said I don't say it to sound cool, I'm just telling the facts
Tired of being hungry, guess I'm fed up of that
Spent some time with my head up my crack
Ignorance ain't bliss if you know better than that
I've already said they'll bring you down, so keep a watchful eye
In a blink, imposters strike, it'll cost you time
I've been the one to draw it, been the one to cross the line
But if you ain't living then what's a life?
No longer thinking of exes, they don't cross my mind
Didn't need the company, I'm the boss of mine
I write my life down, maybe you'll pick up on it
Asking you to buy all, I'm as sick as vomit
I feel bad for my dogs when I see 'em put down
Feel the need to protect the weak and I'm on the look out
It ain't right at all so I keep my circle small
Don't need no more friends, I'll be no perfect fool

At first it came to me by surprise
Didn't matter to me though, I'm twice as nice
And haters are usually dead wrong
That's why I'm headstrong
That's why I'm headstrong, headstrong
It ain't right at all
Praying on our downfall
I don't say it to sound cool
They be hating
I'm saying, they're praying on our downfall
