Lyrics
Description
(Verse 1)
Yeah I was raised in the fire where the daylight fades,
Where the pain might stay but the game I played
Made a brave mind trained for the ways I prayed,
So I break my chains when the stakes get raised.
I’m the kid they doubted, now I’m spittin’ the code,
Every bit of my soul gettin’ ripped in the flow,
I’ve been hittin’ the lows but I’m liftin’ it though,
And I’m fixin’ to show what I’m meant to explode.
I’m a renegade, pen-in-hand heavyweight,
Never let ’em devastate, levels that I elevate,
Enemies evaporate soon as I accelerate,
Words whip harder than a turbo Chevrolet.
I’m restless, breathless, message infectious,
Next this checklist wrecks these skeptics,
Guess this flex just tests my vengeance,
Step in reckless? Exit senseless.
(Verse 2)
Now I’m runnin’ with a hunger that is under my skin,
Got thunder in the drum when I’m comin’ to win,
Every stumble that I done only summoned the grin,
’Cause the struggle turned rubble into somethin’ again.
I’m a beast in the booth when I leap for the truth,
Got heat when I shoot through beats like a nuke,
Technique too sleek, I don’t need no excuse,
I’m the leak in the roof droppin’ floods on the youth.
I’m back with a tone that attacks to the bone,
I react when I’m thrown in the path of a storm,
I adapt when I'm torn, then I craft and perform,
Now the fact is I’m sworn to be half of the norm —
Never. I'm better. I sever the pressure.
Endeavor forever, my letter’s a weapon.
Whenever I enter, remember the center
Of tremors I send when I’m bending the measure.
(Outro)
So I stand on the edge where the brave don't blink,
Where the pain might shrink but the rage still links,
And the page I ink makes the chains all sink,
Every day I think I’m a step from the brink.
But I rise with a drive they can’t ever define,
I designed every line like a weapon of mine,
I align with the grind till it’s etched in my spine,
Now I’m set in my prime on the edge of the shine.
If the crown in the air and they beggin’ to claim,
I’ll snatch that fast like I’m wreckin’ the game,
Never checkin’ for fame — I respect what I gain,
You can bet on the name when I step in the flame.
