[Verse]
Born in the gutter, dirt under my nails, no gloss
Fistfights with fate, head high, took no loss
Midnight prayers, stars respond with a nod
Found faith in the shadows where the angels trod
[Verse 2]
Karma's my teacher, every mistake, the tuition
Paid in tears, turned my scars into ammunition
Meditation my throne, silence my dominion
Truth hit my chest harder than a cold collision
[Chorus]
Crown me royalty, built my reign from mud
Was drowning, now I’m sailing on the ancient flood
Wisdom poured in, a chalice filled to the brim
My soul lit a torch where the light seemed grim
[Verse 3]
Books my artillery, words sharper than swords
Lessons in the margins, where the universe rewards
Elevated mind, skyscrapers in the clouds
Laughed at the pain, turned whispers into shouts
[Verse 4]
Enemies surrendered, they all bowed to my growth
The throne a mirror; now I toast to my oath
Kingdom ain't built on peasants, but mutual respect
Castle walls forged stronger from years of neglect
[Bridge]
Storms came heavy, learned to dance in the rain
On the badlands of hope, I planted seeds in my brain
Lotus in the chaos, bloomed in the paradox
Now my fortress sits atop where the phoenix rocks
