Lyrics

Yeah…
We came from nothin', now the view's divine,
Pressure made a diamond, took my time.
Let's go.
Started in the mud, had to pave my lane,
Dreams too big, couldn't fit in my frame.
Mama said "boy, don't you die in the same place,"
So I turned my pain into gold and grace.
Late nights, no sleep, tryna flip that rent,
Now my name on the lease, and the money well-spent.
Every loss was a lesson, yeah, I took that hit,
Turned my L's into commas, had to hustle legit.
Now they see me glowin', I was built for this,
From the struggle to the stage, never missin' a shift.
They don't see the nights I cried,
All they see's the chain that shine.
But that pain behind my eyes,
That's the reason I survived.
Remember cold winters, heat from the stove,
Now it's rooftop views, seats in the Rolls.
Took risks, now I'm cashin' my fears in folds,
Every scar that I got turned to stories I told.
Homies gone, but I carry that flame,
Every prayer I say still echoes their name.
Had dirt on my soul, had to rinse that pain,
Now my shoes so clean, they reflect my gains.
Now they see me glowin', I was built for this,
From the struggle to the stage, never missin' a shift.
They don't see the nights I cried,
All they see's the chain that shine.
But that pain behind my eyes,
That's the reason I survived.
Told 'em faith ain't luck, it's alignment,
Told 'em pain ain't curse, it's refinement.
Every setback, just a new assignment,
Now my worth too high for confinement.
Still risin', still risin',
Still vibin', still grindin'.
They don't see the nights I cried,
But that's the reason I survived.
