Brick on Brick

I came in late, still first on the check

Steel in my spine, but I stay in the flex

Small room, big plans, I don’t need much

Hand on the wheel, watch the whole thing clutch

Mom said, “Move calm, keep your head up”

Dad said, “Work twice when the odds get rough”

So I stack every win like a brick on brick

Quiet on the climb, but I don’t miss quick

I don’t fold now

I don’t slow down

If it’s my turn, I take it

If it’s my lane, I stay in it

Brick on brick, I build it

Brick on brick, I live it

Say my name, then feel it

Brick on brick, I build it

New shoes scuffed, but the moves stay clean

Old doubts talk, I don’t feed that scene

Too many nights with the phone gone dark

Too many tries just to earn that spark

Now the whole crew lean when I step through

Gold in my chest, got a code I keep true

No fake shine, I don’t rent my face

If I win, I want it with my own damn pace

I don’t fold now

I don’t slow down

If it’s my turn, I take it

If it’s my lane, I stay in it

Brick on brick, I build it

Brick on brick, I live it

Say my name, then feel it

Brick on brick, I build it

Different day, same hands

Same grind, same chance

If the roof shakes, I stand

I was made for this land

Brick on brick, I build it

Brick on brick, I live it

Say my name, then feel it

Brick on brick, I build it
