(Capo on 1)

(Intro.)
|(Gm) Hm, hm, hm

(Verse 1)
Been beat down, (Gm) but I (D)don�ft stay low
Got (Cm)mad on my jeans, still ready to (Gm)go
Every (Eb)scar�fs a story that I survived (D)
I�fve (Eb)been through hell, but I�fm still alive (D)
They say (Gm)slow down, boy, don�ft go too fast
But I ain�ft (D)never been one to live in the past
I keep (Eb) moving forward, never looking back
With a (D)worn-out hat and a six-string strap

(Chorus)
You can kick (Gm)rocks if you don�ft like how I talk
I�fm gonna (Gm)keep on talking and walk my walk
Ain�ft (Gm)changing my tone, ain�ft changing my song
I was (Gm)born this way, been loud too long
You can (Gm)hate my style, you can roll your eyes
But I (Gm)ain�ft slowing down, I was born to rise
So (Gm)kick them rocks if you don�ft like how I talk
I�fm gonna (Gm)keep on talking and walk my walk

(Humming)
(Gm) Hm, hm, hm, hm, hm, hm, hm
(Gm) Hm, hm, hm, hm, hm, hm, hm
(Gm) Hm, hm, hm, hm, hm, hm, hm
(Gm)Hmm, hmm

(Verse 2)
I�fve (Gm)lost my friends, made a few new foes
But (Gm)that�fs just life, that�fs how it goes
I ain�ft (Cm) bending over just to please the crowd
If (Cm)I fall down, I�fll fall down proud
(Gm) I�fll talk my truth, I�fll live my way
Ain�ft (Gm) nobody gonna take my say
This (Bb)road�fs been rough, but I learned to trade
It�fs (Gm)sweat, sold, and dues I paid

(Chorus)
You can (Gm)kick rocks if you don�ft like how I talk
I�fm gonna (F)keep on talking and walk my walk
Ain�ft (Eb)changing my tone, ain�ft changing my song
I was (Gm)born this way, been loud too long
You can (Gm)hate my style, you can roll your eyes
But I (F)ain�ft slowing down, I was born to rise
So (Eb)kick them rocks if you don�ft like how I talk
I�fm gonna (Bb)keep on talking and walk my walk

(Bridge)
Let the (Gm)haters talk, let the rumours fly
I (Cm)ain�ft got time to wonder why
The (D)good Lord knows the man I am
And I�fll (Gm)die standing, tall with a mic in my hand

(Chorus)
You can (Gm)kick rocks if you don�ft like how I talk
I�fm gonna (F)keep on talking and walk my walk
I ain�ft (Eb)selling my soul for a seat at your table
I�fm (D)rough, I�fm raw, I�fm wild, I�fm able
You can (Gm)hate my fire, but you can�ft kill my spark
I�fm a (F)midnight flame, burning through the dark
So (Eb)kick them rocks if you don�ft like how I talk
I�fm gonna (D)keep on talking and walk my walk

(Outro.)
You can (Gm)kick rocks
You can (F)kick rocks
You can (Eb)kick rocks
I�fm gonna (D)keep on talking and walk my walk
