Ryan Leslie - Never Break Down Lyrics

I'll never give in
I'll never give up
I'll never break down (break down)
Say I'll never give in no, no, no
I'll never give in
I'll never give up
I'll never break down (break down)

Hey yo' I moved from the foot bottom
Now I'm in the mansion
Took over the game, Les'
Hold that shit for ransom
Never forget the day a supermodel said I'm handsome
Dad fell in love with her, he just want a grandson
I was in the studio (Grindin')
I was skipping classes (Yeah)
Fifteen, braces plus coke bottle glasses (Smart)
Livin' in the future now (Excel)
Being broke is past tense (That's right)
Cash game is stupid boy
I ain't with the plastic
People ask me how I'm living
I say : Very great (Great)
Switch my level from a feather to a heavyweight (The title)
You see I laid the blueprints so y'all can replicate (Just follow)
Ask me how I rose above, I learned to levitate (Rise)
Made some money put my momma in that Mercedes ride (Yeah)
Felt so good to see the pride in my old lady's eyes (I love her)
I pray for her success and her continue health (I love her)
Spill it on her 'fore I spend this money on myself, Les'

I'll never give in
I'll never give up
I'll never break down (break down)
Not this time, never breaking down (Yeah)
I'll never give in
I'll never give up
I'll never break down
You know I'll never break down (break down)

Yeah!
Artists out here lost
Looking for advances
Come sit at my roundtable
I got all the answers
Teach you how to hustle
Put you in the trenches (Work)
You should know that money from these labels too expensive [?]
Take they money then they put you on the fuckin' shelf (Smart enough)
You'd be better off to do that shit your fuckin' self (Hustle)
One to one homie, move that music hand to hand
18 months I was looking at 500 hunnid grand (Self-made)
Future looking brighter through my new Cazals (Bright)
40 thousands strong, you should see my tickets sales
Girls screaming we do them real sets, we burn stages
Girl screaming we writing rules man we turn pages
Yeah, vision taking pictures for my history book (The legend)
Fuck with me Imma show you how this history look (Real good)
Everything I record is 'til the end of time (Time)
You gon' have to take it from me, I'm defending mine (The chair)

I'll never give in
I'll never give up
I'll never break down (Never break down)
(Oh I will never)
I'll never give in
I'll never give up
I'll never break down (Break down)
I'll never break down

Les'
Grant myself a hundred wishes that mean I'm a genie
580 horses in my Lamborghini
When I pull them beauties out that mean I'm [?]
I'm disguise in 30 cars that mean you'll never see me
I'm to good my woman, sleep as much as I can
Pray my sins are forgiven, put my trust in his hands (I'm prayin')
We gon' take it to the pinnacle, the highest heights
Before I leave this mortal earth they gon' say: "Ryan nice"
A legend

I'll never give in
I'll never give up
I'll never break down (break down)
Never gonna break down
Never see me giving in, no
I'll never give in
I'll never give up
I'll never break down (break down)
Never break down
