Burn the Contract

Intro]

Yeah…

I walked out that door with no regrets.

No sneak disses, no drama…

I just chose myself.

Burned that contract and kept my soul.

Now it’s my time.

⸻

I burned that contract, watched the flames go high,

Middle finger up, I ain’t asking why.

They tried to own my sound, tried to run my life,

Now I’m cutting every chain with the same damn knife.

I bet on myself, I don’t need no hand,

Built this from the dirt, now they understand.

I ain’t selling my soul for a check and some fame,

I’d rather stay broke than let ’em own my name.

Fuck all that fake love, fake smiles, fake praise,

I was locked in a cage for too many days.

Now I’m outside and I’m chasing my goals,

Can’t nobody else ever own my soul.

⸻

Every loss made me stronger, every scar made me real,

Now I’m living every word that I used to feel.

I ain’t looking for permission, I ain’t waiting on a deal,

If they don’t believe in me, I’ma make ’em kneel.

⸻

Fuck it, I don’t need a label, I’m good on my own,

Every damn verse and every beat I own.

Burned the contract, let that bitch turn black,

Ain’t no looking forward to the past, ain’t looking back.

This ain’t a diss, I’m just speaking my truth,

Still the same young one with something to prove.

Independent grind, yeah, I’m chasing that bag,

Now they see me winning and they all look mad.

⸻

I got scars on my soul but I wear ‘em with pride,

Nobody carried me, I survived.

Every “no” made me hustle ten times harder,

Now I’m moving smarter while I’m aiming farther.

They wanted control, wanted cuts from my pay,

Wanted all my rights while I smiled every day.

Hell nah, I packed my shit and left the room,

Now my own ideas got the space to bloom.

I don’t owe nobody shit but respect when it’s earned,

Some bridges gotta burn just so lessons get learned.

Now I’m building from the ground with my own damn team,

Living every day for the dream I dreamed.

⸻

No hate in my blood, no names getting dropped,

I’m just showing everybody I can’t be stopped.

Every late night, every tear, every fight,

Led me to this moment where the future looks bright.

Freedom over money if the price is my name,

I ain’t built to play somebody else’s game.

Bet it all on me and I doubled my faith,

Now I’m carving out my own place.

⸻

Fuck it, I don’t need a label to make me a star,

I know who I am and I know where we are.

Burned the contract, watched the smoke hit the sky,

Now the only limit is how hard I grind.

This ain’t a diss, this a statement I made,

I chose my freedom over getting played.

Independent hustle till the day that I die,

Got my own damn wings, now it’s time to fly.

⸻

Yeah…

No chains, no boss, no permission.

Burned the paper but kept the vision.

Every song, every move, every dollar mine.

Independent forever…

And I’m still gonna shine.
