[Intro]
Said you can tell 'em that
I been from uh-uh
When the heat is on
You know I give back
I said uh-uh, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
You can tell them that, I've been from hell and back
When the heat is on, I fire back
In this cold world, where your lighters at?
Just burn it down, f-f-fire back
You can tell them that, I've been from hell and back
When the heat is on, I fire back
In this cold world, where your lighters at?
Just burn it down, f-f-fire back
[Verse 1]
Uh, let's take it to the ground
Don't too many make it coming through our town
Looking for a detour, nowhere to be found
When the pressure's on, seems nobody's around
Uh, but I won't let them see me sweat
Yeah, it took a little time, but can't really be upset
Long way to the top, I can barely see the steps
Yeah, they sleeping on me still, but I barely need to rest
See me standing here, head high, face up
I don't need no X-Ray, show you what I'm made of
Tell 'em I paid my dues, you can check the pay stubs
Never had a chance so, I had to go and make one
Say some, you can tell them that, I've been through hell and back, but I'm home
Can't really complain when it's the life that I chose
Sacrificed it all and everything that I owned
Say "What doesn't kill me can only make me stronger"
[Chorus]
You can tell them that, I've been from hell and back
When the heat is on, I fire back
In this cold world, where your lighters at?
Just burn it down, f-f-fire back
You can tell them that, I've been from hell and back
When the heat is on, I fire back
In this cold world, where your lighters at?
Just burn it down, f-f-fire back
[Verse 2]
Yeah, can you feel the heat?
The block is hot as ever in these city streets
You only get one shot, keep your arm steady
They tried to make me wait, but I'm more than ready
To go and get mine, grind like an inline
Skater, check your wrist watch you'll see that, this time it's my time
And I don't need no invite to the party, got roll over minutes and
Feels like my calling, ooh, I'm just doing what I can
With a whole lot of drive, trying to make my own path
Take a chance, can't sit and worry about, no five year plan
Gotta live for the day 'cause I could die where I stand
Tell 'em, you can tell them that, I've been through hell and back, but I'm home
Can't really complain when it's the life that I chose
Sacrificed it all and everything that I owned
Say "What doesn't kill me can only make me stronger"
[Chorus]
You can tell them that, I've been from hell and back
When the heat is on, I fire back
In this cold world, where your lighters at?
Just burn it down, f-f-fire back
You can tell them that, I've been from hell and back
When the heat is on, I fire back
In this cold world, where your lighters at?
Just burn it down, f-f-fire back
