I Ain't Done
Andy Mineo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I ain't done, I ain't done
As long as there's breath in my lungs
I ain't done, I ain't done, I ain't done
As long as there's breath in my lungs, I ain't done
Oh well if they don't like it
I might turn up by myself (yeah, yeah)
No, I did this for myself (for myself, ay)
I just remembered I'm dope, yeah
I just remembered I'm fly, yeah
They try and say "be humble"
Don't you know I'm made like God, yeah
All in my blood type
I was on straight for hard nights
Ain't done trying, get it done right
Keep comparin' myself, don't ever but
Believe in myself, no never again, yeah
Death to my depression and anxiety
Death to all my stress and all I'm trying to be
I'ma get loud, 'cause I'm still alive
And if I die, ain't no way I'm giving up now
I ain't done, I ain't done, I ain't done
As long as there's breath in my lungs
I ain't done, I ain't done, I ain't done
As long as there's breath in my lungs, I ain't done
Uh, just came out of the winter
Just came out like a winner
Had a break down, couldn't stay down figure
Rather die trying, then to live like quitter, wooh
Yeah, my problems big, but I know God way bigger
What you 'spect? Once you level up
Don't you know the boss is bigger, yeah
Used to spend a lot of time daring myself
Then spent a lot of time comparing myself
Turn into the doubt, then the fear in myself
Overthinking to the point I was imparin' myself
Now I know why Chappelle went missing
Now I know why Brit got the clippers
Now I know why Ye started trippin'
The pressure and the expectation get ya, ah
Oh well if they don't like it
I might turn up by myself
Uh, yeah yeah uh uh
Uh, I don't need opinions
No, I did this for myself (for myself, aye)
Death to my depression and anxiety
Death to all my stress and what I'm trying to be
I'ma get live, 'cause I'm still alive
And if I die, ain't no way I'm giving up now
I ain't done, I ain't done, I ain't done
As long as there's breath in my lungs
I ain't done, I ain't done, I ain't done
As long as there's breath in my lungs, I ain't done
I know you feel like you can't change
I know you think it'll always be the same
I wanna be full of potential again
But I ain't done

2017 was an extremely difficult year for me. I lost my house, my job, my car, a few friends, family members passed away and others nearly did. This song means so much to me because in spite of all the crap that I dealt with, I continued to hold on to my faith in God and serve Him. I went back to school and finished my degree and I've been working hard to get out of debt and back in shape. Ugh this is my theme song so much right now. I'm sitting in Starbucks weeping because it just means so much to me to see such a great video with a great message that has greatly encouraged me. Thank you so much, Andy, for being a blessing to me.

Chris Esparza Amen Brother! This has been a rough year for me too. It has been very humbling for me and I have been reminded to aim for Jesus in the midst of the struggle. This verse has helped me a lot, I hope it can encourage you too.
“Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 3:12-14 ESV
