Against the Odds
Gustavo Bustermann
Hey
What?
Listen to this
I sent pics of my tits, he got hyped as fuck
Married man, dad of two, straight shit
Then I faked like I was feelin' it
Last night was just another diversion, damn
I'ma keep pushin' this forever, no cap
Any place, any time, wherever
Plus I need them fifty bucks bad
Even if I gotta fuck, suck and swallow, fuck it
Real talk, he's my favorite one
'Cause he hits me with them X pills
This the life of another wrecked bitch, yeah
Born in a body that never felt like home
World said sit down, but I refused to roam
Every stare, every slur, every day the same shit
They call it a phase, mental, call it sin
While I'm out here fightin' just to live in my skin
Docs gatekeepin', politicians drawin' lines
Tryna erase us from the books and rewrite our times
But we still here, still buildin', still risin' up
From the shadows they pushed us in
We refuse to shut the fuck up
Against the odds, against the odds
Against the odds, we still stand tall
Bleed, fight and rise when they want us to fall
You can push us down, but we ain't disappearin'
Against the odds every day, we still ain't scared
Talkin' survival in a world that hates the truth
Dead bodies and dead ends
That we deserve the same rights
While the streets claim our sisters and plan our death
My sibling died for nothin', pointless as fuck
What point you even tryin' to score?
Plus I'm hustlin' hard for this paper
You can help if you sell this ass for me
Man, fuck your fame, you worthless motherfucker
Sometimes I stare in the mirror and ask myself
Am I really scared of dyin'?
Three dudes in one dark room
First time I got thrown around
But fuck that apology, fuck that
How many sins? Can't even keep count
You need holy water
Gotta get baptized in the Lord's essence
Shout from heaven so hard it dilute a demon with the Holy Spirit
Till it drown in the blood of Christ
Fuck you, sleep tight, thanks a lot for the dick
I been out on these streets way too long
I got sharper eyes now
I know when a guy schemin'
Raw-doggin' you with no protection
Nah, don't ask about my girl, nah
I spot you from a mile away, see the doubt all over your face
We turned right, then left
Just loopin' around this fuckin' life, shit
Against the odds, against the odds
Against the odds, we still stand tall
Bleed, fight and rise when they want us to fall
You can push us down, but we ain't disappearin'
Healthcare denied, jobs vanish when you transition
Family turn they back, leave you fightin' alone
But the community hold you when the blood start spill
Ballroom, the block, the group chat, that's the real skill
We organize, we protect, we bury our own
Then we get back up and keep pushin' the stone
Every time they push, we push the fuck back harder
From the clubs to the marches, we the ones who go farther
So to every kid still hidin' in the dark
Keep fightin', you already left a mark
We the proof that the odds don't get the final say
We the ones who turned the pain into a brighter day
Against the odds, against the odds
Against the odds, we still stand tall
Bleed, fight and rise when they want us to fall
You can push us down, but we ain't disappearin'
