Back Against The Wall by EX Lowkey Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Lord please
I'm falling in this bottomless pit
I need answers
All this struggle and this pain
Is my struggle all in vein
What does it take to be at the top what does it take to prevail
Coz I got the passion got the mojo with kicks and punchlines
This beat is like my dojo
Never met a fellow who could flow so
Sleek
So, tell me what does it take to be there
Coz I done cried a whole river of tears
And I'm tired of just living in fear that I would die without achieving my goals
See my family that’s the reason I cope with everything that is going on in my life
I stumble in the darkness while searching for light
It’s like I'm in the cemetery while looking for life
And everything that I touch keeps on falling apart
And this is breaking my heart
Doesn't matter what try it never works out
Doesn't matter where I go
There's a burden on my soul
See what I'm painting is an ugly picture
Sounds like it's quoted from a Drama scripture but
It's the reality I'm living in when will it ever end?
Lord have you turned your back against me
How can you watch me live in this insanity
See I'm not questioning your existence Lord I know that
You there you were there when I was lying in that hospital bed
You were there when that car almost crashed
You know I never got the chance, but I thank you for that
Why does it feel like I'm all on my own?
Walking alone in this road
That we call life,but I have faith that
One day it's gonna be alright
(Hook X2)
Have you ever had your back against the wall tryna
Get up take a walk, but you trip and then you fall
Have you ever cried so much tears in your eyes that you
Wishing you would die but your hope keeps you alive
What happens when you've lost hope when the only
Solution you see is a tight rope When you've learned
To love and had your heart broke So many times, you
Don't wanna love no more You don't wanna love no more
Have you ever had your back against the wall tryna
Get up take a walk, but you trip and then you fall?
Have you ever cried so much tears in your eyes that you
Wishing you would die but your hope keeps you alive?
What happens when you've lost hope when the only
Solution you see is a tight rope When you've learned
To love and had your heart broke So many times, you
Don't wanna love no more You don't wanna love no more
(Verse 2)
Had my back stabbed so many times started walking in reverse
And it keeps on getting worse
As I'm spitting every verse
It's like a blessing and a curse
To walking on this earth
And when you've lost hope
What happens then
Is like stepping into a lion’s den
Your destined to meet your end
How could it be
Is life just one big tragedy
Is this the life that I’m destined to live
Hell, naw there's more to life than this
So, wipe away your tears and toughened up
And every time you fail just remember that
Rome wasn't built in a day so with perseverance and patience
Surely there’s nothing that can get in your way

(Verse 3)
You can do whatever you wanna do
And you can be whoever you wanna be
As long as you believe there's nothing you can't achieve
Your dreams are in your reach
Talk is cheap
Better practice what you preach
