Story behind the song
Throughout 2022, I've been up, been down, been hurt, been criticized, been misused, been succeed, and been failed. This song is a target and a warning to the haters, critics, perpetrators, liars, and wannabes. They did see me fall, they been talking at me, throwing shade at me, stealing, copying, and biting my style, and they tried to be on my level. I want all my musical colleagues, independent artists, radio stations and fans to know that I'm still here. This is for taking. I won't let anybody take my crown in 2023. I've been writing hits for years. I've been from the bottom, I want to get back on top. Just bow down and kiss the ring!
Lyrics
Underdog
Written by Shawn Adam Williams
Intro:
I got a message to the haters out there
You did backin' me down, y'all did talkin' at me
Stealin' my style, copyin' and bitin' me
What's wrong with y'all, y'all did hatin' on me
I'm no longer the Southern Prince, you call me The Underdog
Verse:
You wanna see me fall, not at all
It's my time, it's my call
You want some proof, here's to you
Never lie to you, cause I'm the truth
You better move out my way, you better do it as I say
I don't care what you say, cause it's my way
Y'all talkin' and yappin', y'all prove me wrong
But not for long, cause
Chorus:
I'm the Underdog (4x)
Verse:
You bring me down, cause I need my crown
I held my head up, never looking down
You can say what you want, cause it's your fault
You think I'm a fool, cause I paid my dues
Please, back up, please, I need some privacy
All you do is hate me, cause I got room to breathe
All thus gosspin', spreadin' rumors, that's wrong
But not for long, cause
Chorus
Ending:
BOW DOWN AND KISS THE RING!
