Last Man Standing
Asher Roth Lyrics

They say they want that hot shhhh, say no more
People want something exciting, I'll give it to them.

Had to walk around the block, couldn't take no more!
I needed to clear my head because I was overwhelmed.

Like escaper from the rock, couldn't wait no more
I felt trapped and needed to escape.

Sean Con cocked penis mightier than the sword
Words can be more powerful than violence.

So I'm sleeping with the whores while I file for divorce
I'm making reckless decisions while going through a tough time.

Plain and simple and I'm short, when it rains, man, it pours
Life is difficult and can become overwhelming.

Stepping in manure, second sippin' in the moor
Things are not going well and there is no sign of improvement.

Quickest leopard gets the boar, secret weapons win the war
Being smart and strategic is critical to success.

Desprate, but I'm pretty sure that I'm destined to endure
I'm struggling but I believe I will overcome.

Flesh into the core, Pauly D to Pauly Shore
From the deepest parts of me, to the shallowest parts of the media.

World of cyborgs and tours of cyberspace
We live in a digital world where technology rules.

What's behind the door, the allure of something strange?
What's unknown is always tempting.

Of course, this is why I came, the forces are untamed
I came here for the challenge, to conquer the unknown.

No corporate or dumb fame, I'll record for chump change
I don't care about money or celebrity, I just want to make music.

Course is unphased, contorted or concave
I'm not affected by the obstacles or difficulties.

I'm sort of a poor sport, nothing short of Liu Kang
I'm competitive and won't give up easily.

I fall and I rise, with the fire still in my eyes
I face challenges but won't let them defeat me.

My scars and my strife, you know I will survive
My past has made me stronger and more resilient.

The strength that I find when I dig down deep inside
I have inner strength that helps me overcome obstacles.

Got me still in this fight, and I'll be the last man standing!
I'll keep fighting until the end and won't give up.

I tried conversing with God, but only hearing myself
I'm struggling and seeking guidance but don't receive any outside help.

I be throwing up a lot but I ain't here for my health
I'm making myself sick because of my lifestyle but it's not intentional.

When I'm feeling like blah, I had to loosen my belt
When I feel down, I need to take a break and relax.

Ate the corn right off the cob, didn't need no help
I can take care of myself and don't rely on others.

So, now I've come to realize I'm on my own for real
I understand that I'm responsible for my own life.

So most of em I approach em with a Slomin's Shield
I'm cautious when meeting new people to protect myself.

Keep my enemies close cause they prone to steal
I need to be aware of those who might hurt me.

When friends become foes know you're doing it well
My success can turn friends against me.

I'm a red pill taker, who's my real maker
I'm willing to take risks and question authority.

Drew poems on tombstones to feel safer
I express my emotions through writing to cope with my fears.

Loopholes for new souls, let's keep praying
There are opportunities for personal growth if we stay optimistic.

Too grown to complain, I create the lane I stay in
I don't complain, I take control of my life and create my own path.

Forever underrated, so now I'm Nicholas Cage-ing it
I'm overlooked and underestimated but I'll keep pushing forward.

Doing all about anything as long as you put my face in it
I'll do whatever it takes to gain recognition and success.

Face it, I didn't want to be famous, but that's the way it is
I didn't seek fame but it's part of the package for being a successful artist.

Way I play the game, it's no wonder the brother made it like
I've succeeded because of my unique approach to the industry.
