Lyrics

I was raised on the grind, I was built from the dirt,

Turned pain into plans, turned the losses to work.

They were sleepin’ on me, now they’re wide awake,

‘Cause I built every move with a risk I’d take.

I was broke, I was down, I was hungry to grow,

Now I’m front row seats at the life I chose.

They were talkin’ that talk, I was makin’ it real,

I was prayin’ for breaks, now I’m spinnin’ the wheel.

I don’t wait for a hand, I don’t beg for a chance,

I just double my steps till I’m makin’ ’em dance.

Every knock, every door that they closed on my name,

Just a spark for the fire that’s fuelin’ the flame.

I was built for this — I don’t fold, don’t quit,

Every scar, every loss made me stronger with it.

I was built for this — yeah, the grind don’t sleep,

I was born for the climb and the mountain’s deep.

I was built for this — yeah, I rise, I fight,

Put my blood in the game and my soul in the mic.

I was built for this — yeah, I’m here, I stay,

Every block they throw down, I just pave my way.

I was out on the block tryna make ends meet,

Now I’m bossin’ my time, now I own these streets.

They were laughin’ at dreams I was scared to say,

Now they copy my steps, tryna walk my way.

I was dead broke once, now I triple the stakes,

Every “no” that I heard was the fuel it takes.

I don’t chase what they chase, I don’t beg, don’t plead,

I just plant my plans, now I watch ’em seed.

I’m the proof you can grow where the light don’t reach,

I’m the lesson they skip but the truth I teach.

I was made in the dark, I was carved by the fight,

Now I glow in the storm, now I shine in the night.

I was built for this — I don’t fold, don’t quit,

Every scar, every loss made me stronger with it.

I was built for this — yeah, the grind don’t sleep,

I was born for the climb and the mountain’s deep.

I was built for this — yeah, I rise, I fight,

Put my blood in the game and my soul in the mic.

I was built for this — yeah, I’m here, I stay,

Every block they throw down, I just pave my way.

I was told I’d fail — but I flipped that script.

They said I’d fall — but I stood and gripped.

They said I’d break — but I carved my name,

‘Cause I’m built from the fire, not born for the fame.

I was built for this — I don’t fold, don’t quit,

Every scar, every loss made me stronger with it.

I was built for this — yeah, I rise, I fight,

Put my blood in the game and my soul in the mic.

I was built for this — yeah, I break those chains,

Turn the struggle to strength, turn the hurt to gains.

I was built for this — yeah, I’ll never fall,

I was made to survive — I can take it all.
