Walk My Walk lyrics

Been beat down, but I don't stay low Got mud on my jeans, still ready to go Every scar's a story that I survived I've been through hell, but I'm still alive They said: Slow down, boy, don't go too fast But I ain't never been one to live in the past I keep moving forward, never looking back With a worn-out hat and a six-string strap You can kick rocks if you don't like how I talk I'ma keep on talking and walk my walk Ain't changing my tone, ain't changing my song I was born this way, been loud too long You can hate my style, you can roll your eyes But I ain't slowing down, I was born to rise So kick them rocks if you don't like how I talk I'ma keep on talking and walk my walk Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm I've lost some friends, made a few new foes But that's just life, that's how it goes I ain't bending over just to please a crowd If I fall down, I'll fall down proud I'll talk my truth, I'll live my way Ain't nobody gonna take my say This road's been rough, but I learned to trade this sweat Soul and dues I paid, you can kick rocks If you don't like how I talk I'm gon' keep on talkin' and walk my walk Ain't changin' my tone, ain't changin' my song I was born this way, been loud too long You can hate my style, you can roll your eyes But I ain't slowin' down, I was born to rise So kick them rocks if you don't like how I talk I'm gon' keep on talkin' and walk my walk Let the haters talk, let the rumors fly I ain't got time to wonder why The good Lord knows the man I am And I'll die standing tall with a mic in my hand You can kick rocks if you don't like how I talk I'ma keep on talking and walk my walk Ain't selling my soul for a seat at your table, I'm rough I'm raw, I'm wild, I'm able You can hate my fire, but you can't kill my spark I'm a midnight flame burning through the dark So kick them rocks if you don't like how I talk I'm gon' keep on talking and walk my walk You can kick rocks You can kick rocks You can kick rocks I'ma keep on talkin' and walkin' my walk
