I've taken a lot of lip
Just to be what I am
You think it's tough bein' a kid, huh
Well, try bein' a man sometime
Everybody wants a little piece
Or they'll try to shoot you down
Well, I just tell 'em to sit on this
And spin around, yeah, woo
It ain't easy speakin' out
Some people take it to heart
And if you ain't standin' on top of the rock
They'll try and tear you apart
Me, I took four the hard way
I overcame the fear
Yeah, and it got me in a lot of trouble
But it also got me here
Standin' on top, top of the rock
Standin' on top, top of the rock
I may not be a business man
I ain't no fast slick talker
But you just ask any kid in the street
He'll tell you I'm a rocker
Everybody wants a little piece
Or they'll try to shoot me down
Yeah, well, I just tell 'em to sit on this
Huh, and take a spin around
Standin' on top, top of the rock
Standin' on top, top of the rock
I took four the hard way
I overcame the fear
Yes, it got me in a lot of trouble
And it also got me here
Standin' on top, top of the rock
Standin' on top, top of the rock, yes, woo
And I'm standin' on top, on top of the rock
Standin' on top, top of the rock, yeah
Standin' on top of the rock
Yeah, and I ain't comin' down, baby
Ow
