[Intro – whispered, eerie pads, distant 808 rumble]
I feel it burn inside my chest…
Every shadow leaves a debt.
He cries in me, he bleeds through me…
But I turn his tears to currency.
---
[Verse 1 – aggressive, trap cadence]
Stack on stack, pain for pain,
Turn my scars into profit, that’s the game.
They laugh at the weight that I carry every night,
But my demons keep receipts, and I charge ‘em with my fight.
Another lie, another bill in my face,
System rigged, but I still run the race.
They want my soul? Better triple that fee,
I bleed ink, bleed grind, devil cries in me.

[Hook – haunting, melodic, layered vocals]
The devil cries in me,
But I turn his tears to gold.
Every heartbeat breaks, every secret sold,
The devil cries in me,
But I won’t let the fire go cold.
I’m chained to the grind,
But the paper’s all I hold.
---
[Verse 2 – harder bars, trap flow with “dollar for dollar” bar]
Bill after bill, still I never fold,
Debt in their hands but I write my own code.
They prey on the weak, I was taught to survive,
Every shadow in my chest just kept me alive.
Dollar for dollar, I bled for the grind,
Paid in my pain, but the paper is mine.
They call it ambition, I call it a war,
The devil cries in me, but I’m bleeding out more.

[Bridge – whispered madness, eerie echoes]
I am the crack in the floor…
The silence you can’t ignore…
I am the sin you bought and sold,
The fire you never controlled.
---
[Hook – heavier, screaming layered vocals + ad-libs]
The devil cries in me,
But I turn his tears to gold.
Every heartbeat breaks, every secret sold,
The devil cries in me,
But I won’t let the fire go cold.
I’m chained to the grind,
But the paper’s all I hold.
---
[Outro – piano fades, whispered voice]
He’s in my chest…
He’s in my blood…
But so is the grind…
And I’ll never give it up.
