[Intro – Spoken/Chant]
Yeah, it’s Daniel.
Dead Broke in my mom’s garage.
Started with 64 cents and a dream.
Now we live every night — from the desert to the screen.
⸻
[Verse 1 – The Beginning]
I was dead broke, slept on the floor in my mom’s garage,
Dreams bigger than the roof, but the roof had scars.
My wife said she didn’t love me no more — that hit hard,
Packed up my life, left Michigan, drove off with a broken heart.
Trance in the passenger seat, my pitbull, my boy,
Hit the desert in Tucson, pain turned into joy.
Started streaming on my phone, TikTok gave me a voice,
Ten thousand strong now — that was God’s choice.
⸻
[Hook – The Rise]
Now we live every night, Dead Broke made it right,
Battlin’ names all day, we don’t back from a fight.
From Sedona to the desert, through the pain and the light,
Built a brand in my mom’s garage — now the logo’s in sight.
⸻
[Verse 2 – The Hustle]
From 64 cents to a TikTok Shop plug,
Selling Lullabites and razors — now they showin’ love.
Affiliate grind, yeah, that’s the creator drug,
Every post another step from the dirt I dug.
No viral video, I just kept postin’ more,
Faith and a phone — that’s my open door.
We battled Catwoman once, PB&J before,
Made Zoe 500 quiet — they don’t talk no more.
⸻
[Hook – The Rise (Repeat)]
Now we live every night, Dead Broke made it right,
Battlin’ names all day, we don’t back from a fight.
From Sedona to the desert, through the pain and the light,
Built a brand in my mom’s garage — now the logo’s in sight.
⸻
[Bridge – The Breakthrough]
Hit that vortex in Sedona, man, I cried by the stones,
Felt God in the wind sayin’, “Son, you’re not alone.”
Now I’m out here in the desert with Trance by the throne,
Building Dead Broke dreams, turned this garage to a home.
⸻
[Outro – Spoken/Reflective]
If you’re hearin’ this, you can start from nothin’.
You can rise up from your mom’s garage.
All you need’s a phone, some faith, and the grind to post.
Me and Trance — we’re still here.
Dead Broke Clothing — built from the dust.
