Ladi6 - Jacknife lyrics

You said to me, no I wasn't good enough
Couldn't make it all the way high
How could it be now
I could of had what it takes
To do my own style call me a dreamer
But dreams can come true
And I knew, knew not to believe you
And I flew, away from the flock
Now you can't stop me, no one can stop me
Try as hard as you like might
Give me something solid to bite
You keep me motivated
Now when I think of you my
Fists get ready to fight and I'm on tonight
Grab a hold of my soul
Yes I take it everywhere I go
And oh na na, when you're hating
You can slow up cos you're just motivating

No, you can never be the one to take all
If the day come I know God will come call
Strike you down proper now, once and for all
It's the call of the people
Then the people come call
Risk to your hiding place come from afar
Thought you were smart but we are smarter
Never, thought it'd catch up then I
Did jack knifed you up

I had a dream
A dream to attain certain things
To live my life free
Be at peace with everything
My higher ground brings you down face the
Floor so you can taste it
Hard to admit nothing you do
Could stop the pace and
Even if i was, to never breathe again
You'd be on someone else's dk
As soon as you can
Understand let me make myself perfectly clear
I used to love her but she
Doesn't know i'm here say
What you want, who you are, it's your thing
Sit back relax wait for truth to call in
And then again let's get back to the basics
What was it you did that
Gave me so much inspiration?

Let's not pretend that were ever real friends
What we ever had then was
With all this tension
And yet how do you know you'll
Be the winner in the innings
I'd be the one to tell you
But, you better think again cause

No, you can never be the one to take all
If the day come I know God will come call
Strike you down proper now, once and for all
It's the call of the people
Then the people come call
Risk to your hiding place come from afar
Thought you were smart but we are smarter
Never, thought it'd catch up then I
Did jack knifed you up

You don't believe in me
The beginning ever got me
Look who tried to knock me
Couldn't knock me down my heart
Is solid just like Rocky
Stood my ground, I do it all the time
Living out of bags just to
Leave you all behind
I tried and you tried to light the damn fire
But, I couldn't see no burning desire
And even back then, were you pretending?
Not sure if I can call you a friend but
Feel free to lay your burden
I got near you just for listening
I can give it up but let's be real clear
You could have had it all but
Your heart was ruled with fear

So what can i tell ya, no
I can not hold ya, no just like i told ya
You can come around but you
Can't get any closer

No, you can never be the one to take all
If the day come I know God will come call
Strike you down proper now, once and for all
It's the call of the people
Then the people come call
Risk to your hiding place come from afar
Thought you were smart but we are smarter
Never, thought it'd catch up then I
Did jack knifed you up

Yes I will be polite and smile to you face
But we can never get closer, closer, closer
No and I will smile to your face
But we can never get closer, closer
You'll never get closer
