DEE-1 - Failure Ain't An Option feat. Murs and Tabi Bonney lyrics

rate me

[Dee-1:]

I never accept no one when the world say it

Only time I accept no is when a girl say it

Don't need a charger, my future looking gorgeous

Phone call garages, I'm always doing it the largest

I think about murder at the craziest times

So I body every beat and spit the deadliest rhymes

I'll never let another man hold my future in his hands

On my own two is where I stand

Yeah, done crashed whips on the road to success

Ain't showered in a week, but only funk I'm thinking about is Flex

Had a vision, a dream, couldn't wait for a team

Became a bank slash RnB singer, started to chase the dream

And I ain't finna sell my soul

I'm trying to get on TV, but they say I ain't got remote control

But watch when destiny intervenes

You can't stop a machine, I've been chasing dreams

A one-man army, that they solely hated, underestimated

Bible verses kept me motivated

Constantly traded, elevated, verbal, yet I'm educated

Nothing fabricated, we still trying to make it. One

Hook:

(One time, one time, one time)

Failure ain't an option

(Two times, two times, two times)

Failure ain't an option

(Three times, three times, three times)

Failure ain't an option

[Murs:]

As I look back on it all

For me to rise, I guess I had to fall

But just because you fall doesn't mean you fail

Cause fail is permanent, that's like a living hell

I could have gone another route and went to jail

Imagine my potential locked up in a cell

Imagine what potentials I locked up in my cells

I'm genetically predisposed not to fail

It's in my DNA to do well

And that means it's in my genes for me to excel

Put rap before my girl, didn't do so well

But now everything I write about my ex sells

You take a loss and turn it to a gain and

Load up a beat and drop a little pain in

Success is not the way to gain friends

So I guess I'll be alone when the game ends

The same way that I came in

Blessed with success, amen

[Hook:]

[Tabi Bonney:]

Yeah, we don't believe in much, but we believe in us

Doing bare lifts, powered by my bell whips

In the ghetto asking God for a air lift

My pearl come equipped with those vice grips

Holding on to dear life like a virgin at prom

Suicide bombs you know it ain't no turning back

Gotta break my arm before you pin me to a mat

Going hard 'till me see the..of God

Pray that even haters see what's truly in my heart

Peace and love, the exterior just beating up

Like I'm born again, there ain't no fucking giving up

And just when you thought you had enough

Only halfway there, let's go get this million bucks

I like my steak rare, animal planet prepared

That GO read the signs, horoscop Neo

Get savage, the universe ain't patterned

Had to head up to Braille, we can go at it

[Hook:]
