Lyrics
[Verse]
Got scars on my knuckles, blood on my jeans,
Dreams so big, they rip at the seams.
Haters in the rear, they plot and scheme,
I’m a nightmare walking, they can't touch the dream.
[Chorus]
Mama said she proud of me, crown on me,
Built my own throne, ain't no handouts free.
Turned my pain to power, now the world gon' see,
They ain't gotta clap for me, I clap for me.
[Verse 2]
Concrete jungle, I’m the king of the vines,
Heartbeat thumps like 808 lines.
Pressure makes diamonds, now I just shine,
Frontline soldier, my whole life’s a grind.
[Bridge]
No apologies, this the man I became,
Carved my name in stone, I’m rewriting the game.
Each L I took was fuel for the flame,
Now they chant my name, never felt this acclaim.
[Chorus]
Mama said she proud of me, crown on me,
Built my own throne, ain't no handouts free.
Turned my pain to power, now the world gon' see,
They ain't gotta clap for me, I clap for me.
[Verse 3]
No remorse in my veins, just truth in my speech,
Built from the struggle, I practice what I preach.
They doubted my rise, thought my goals outta reach,
Now they study my moves, I’m the one they teach.
