Lyrics
Description
Intro
Yeah…
Pain in my lungs, fire in my chest
Came from the bottom, never had rest
Ljay Music — turn it up
Hook (Chorus)
Came from the struggle, dirt on my shoes
Cold nights, no help, had nothing to lose
Pressure made diamonds, pain made the truth
Ljay Music bangin’, we breaking the roof
Came from the struggle, heart full of scars
Dreams in my head, but sleep in the dark
Still I rise, no matter the cost
Ljay Music loud — we paid with the loss
Verse 1
Grew up hungry, mama stressed, bills overdue
Life hit hard, had to learn how to move
Fake love smiling while they watching you fall
Same ones laughing when you had nothing at all
Back against walls, fists clenched tight
Praying for peace but ready to fight
No silver spoon, just cracks in the plate
Had to grind early, couldn’t wait for fate
They don’t see nights when the tears don’t dry
When hope feels dead but you still don’t die
Turned my pain into bars, scars into sound
Now every word shake the underground
Hook (Chorus)
Came from the struggle, dirt on my shoes
Cold nights, no help, had nothing to lose
Pressure made diamonds, pain made the truth
Ljay Music bangin’, we breaking the roof
Came from the struggle, heart full of scars
Dreams in my head, but sleep in the dark
Still I rise, no matter the cost
Ljay Music loud — we paid with the loss
Verse 2
Everybody wanna shine, nobody wanna bleed
Everybody talk tough till it’s time to lead
I was built in the storm, raised by the rain
Every step forward came wrapped in pain
Broken homes, broken trust, broken sleep
Still kept my word even when I was weak
Life tried to bend me, tried to erase
But I carved my name in the hardest place
No handouts, no shortcuts taken
Faith cracked but it was never shaken
If I fall, I fall forward, head held high
From the gutter to the mic — that’s the why
Bridge
If you feel lost, if you feel trapped
If life got you chained, tied to the past
This for the ones still standing tall
Ljay Music — we represent all
Final Hook (Chorus)
Came from the struggle, blood in the booth
Every line raw, every word the truth
They tried to break me, I broke the rules
Ljay Music flame — we lighting the fuse
Came from the struggle, now hear my voice
Pain made the man, but I made the choice
Still breathing, still ready for war
Ljay Music — this life hardcore
Outro
Yeah…
From nothing to something
From pain to purpose
Ljay Music — forever grinding
