**[Intro]**
(Slow, heavy bass drops, acoustic guitar weeping in the background)
Yeah...
In the sight of the Father, the Son, a journey begun.
Sat in that courtroom, staring at my palms, undone.
From the depths of Houston’s heart, rising up, raw and tough.
They test my seams, I turn into a titan, rough and gruff.
**[Chorus]**
I’m just trying to make it sunny, wash away the stains,
Facing those court dates, wrestling with the pains.
From the struggle to the judge, dancing in the rain,
Trying to make it whole again, mend this restless brain.
**[Hook]**
I buried my spirit here, but it never took flight,
Just a kid from the H, striving for the light.
Now the funds got tall, but the shadows still creep,
With a guardian near, while I chase a night’s sleep.
They wanna doubt the climb, they wanna test my drive,
But I’m a Bread Winner, baby, in this fight, I thrive.
**[Verse 1]**
Concrete burns my soul, hustling from the lower floor,
Had to craft the dreams, sell the poison just to soar.
Starvation in my gut shaped a warrior in the fray,
Now I’m roaring like a lion if you dare to throw shade.
Green on my mind, iron wills when the stakes rise,
Tearing through the fabric, I’m the phoenix in disguise.
Don’t misconstrue the message, show some due respect,
Bow your head and honor kings, or face the intersect.
Keep a guardian near, protection sewn in denim,
Ready for the battles, life’s a game with no dilemma.
It’s a tool of resilience for the ignorance you spread,
Leaving dreams abandoned, watching hope hang by a thread.
**[Hook]**
I buried my spirit here, but it never took flight,
Just a kid from the H, striving for the light.
Now the funds got tall, but the shadows still creep,
With a guardian near, while I chase a night’s sleep.
They wanna doubt the climb, they wanna test my drive,
But I’m a Bread Winner, baby, in this fight, I thrive.
**[Verse 2]**
My wordplay’s fire, got the doc saying, "Stay strong,"
Spitting verses of my struggle, turning pages to a song.
Lyric alchemy, cell by cell, I’m transforming them,
Got the graveyard filled with dreams, but I’m still breathing in.
A living dictionary, crowned with ambition's will,
Syllables are my weapon; I’m bending time and thrill.
But reality hit me hard, truths came peeling back,
Trust shattered like glass when loyalty went slack.
Secrets in the wind, with the rivals in the night,
Facing the ultimate betrayal, but I’ll stand and fight.
**[Hook]**
I buried my spirit here, but it never took flight,
Just a kid from the H, striving for the light.
Now the funds got tall, but the shadows still creep,
With a guardian near, while I chase a night’s sleep.
They wanna doubt the climb, they wanna test my drive,
But I’m a Bread Winner, baby, in this fight, I thrive.
