Koryn Hawthorne + Lecrae - Unstoppable Lyrics
Lyrics
Hold up, wait up
You can't stop this here, you can't top this tier
Work too hard, my God, I'ma play my card, I'ma leave your atmosphere
It's so toxic, and I hear your gossip
I'm aware they plottin', but I got no option
And I can't be stopped, I'ma keep on walkin'
In my power, in my purpose
And that back-biting's so worthless
And my faith on and it's workin'
I'm one-of-one and I'm certain
That I won the battle, it's over, we did it
I'm silk, I'm sweet, I'm Pete, no limit
Can't stop it, it's me and Koryn in the pocket
Got the plug in the socket, woo!
They told you that you couldn't do it 'cause you're washed up
Ain't like them bad girls, said you should get your sauce up
But I got this plan and you might not understand
I'm gon' go hard as I can
And I'm gon' be the boss of it
Just watch me do this, put no limits, only swag on it
Walk right up to the front where I belong then brag on it
Go to the top, I'ma give it all I got
Might take a lot but we ain't gon' ever stop
Now, I do believe I'm something special
Can't take that from me
So you can say what you want
I go harder, stronger
Be who I'm supposed to be
'Cause I'm unstoppable, I get all the way in it
That's the way I was made and I'm up on my bidness
'Cause I'm unstoppable, ain't no hoping and wishing
Say a prayer, catch a wave then I go out and get it
'Cause I can be what I want, try it if I want
Powered by the King and He won't let me fall
'Cause I'm unstoppable
Nah, nah, He won't let me fall
'Cause I'm unstoppable
I dream about it, I go get it, that's how I do it
Not in the stars, I'm not lucky, I just pray through it
Fall on my face and I might make mistakes
But I don't let it break me
'Cause I'm still on my way
I do believe I'm something special
Can't take that from me
So you can say what you want
I go harder, stronger
Be who I'm supposed to be
'Cause I'm unstoppable, I get all the way in it
That's the way I was made and I'm up on my bidness
'Cause I'm unstoppable, ain't no hoping and wishing
Say a prayer, catch a wave then I go out and get it
'Cause I can be what I want, try it if I want
Powered by the King and He won't let me fall
'Cause I'm unstoppable
Nah, nah, He won't let me fall
'Cause I'm unstoppable
Come what may, I rest in his safety
Winds may blow, waves won't over take me
Tears in my eyes but I'm still gon' survive
'Cause He's incredible, He's powerful
And I will rise from the bottom 'cause He said so
'Cause I'm unstoppable, I get all the way in it
That's the way I was made and I'm up on my bidness
'Cause I'm unstoppable, ain't no hoping and wishing
Say a prayer, catch a wave then I go out and get it
'Cause I can be what I want, try it if I want
Powered by the King and He won't let me fall
'Cause I'm unstoppable
Nah, nah, He won't let me fall
'Cause I'm unstoppable

Koryn Hawthorne - Unstoppable ft. Lecrae
Meaning & Inspiration
I’ve spent a good many nights sitting on the porch, watching the light fade, listening to the creek behind the house. Sometimes, I bring out the old hymnal—the one where the pages are soft as fabric from forty years of rubbing. There is a certain kind of certainty in those old lines, a quiet resignation to the sovereignty of a God who often moves in ways that leave us breathless and confused.
Then, I listen to Koryn Hawthorne and Lecrae, and there is a different kind of fire here. It’s loud. It’s moving. It’s the sound of someone who has not yet seen their knees tremble from the sheer weight of a decade, let alone four.
There is a line that struck me: "Say a prayer, catch a wave then I go out and get it."
When I was young, I used to think prayer was a way to move God’s hand. Now, I know it’s mostly a way to align my own heart with a rhythm I don’t fully understand. There is something almost frantic in the beat of this song, a hustle that feels like a necessity. I suppose when you are young and the world is pushing back, you have to be "unstoppable" just to keep your footing. You have to convince yourself that you are "one-of-one," that you have "no limits." It sounds like armor. It sounds like someone shouting into the wind so they don’t have to hear the silence.
Is it true, though? Can a human truly be unstoppable?
The Apostle Paul spoke of being pressed on every side, yet not crushed. He didn’t talk about being unstoppable; he talked about being sustained. He said, “But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us” (2 Corinthians 4:7).
My hands, these weathered things, they’ve dropped plenty of things they thought they were holding onto tightly. I’ve learned that the "unstoppable" nature of a believer isn't about our own hustle or our own sauce. It’s about the fact that we belong to Someone who doesn’t stop, even when we do.
There is a tension in this music. It’s caught between the drive to succeed and the admission that we are fragile. The lines, "Fall on my face and I might make mistakes / But I don't let it break me," that’s where the truth hides. We all fall. The floor is hard, and it stays hard no matter how many prayers you say. But there is grace in the getting up.
Perhaps that’s the real "unstoppable" nature of the soul. It isn’t the strength to never fall; it’s the quiet, persistent grace that pulls a person up off the floor when their own strength has completely evaporated.
I’m not sure I’d call myself unstoppable anymore. I’m tired, often. But I am held. And maybe, in the end, that’s the only thing worth singing about.
