[Intro]
From nothing to something, yeah, I rise
See the struggle in my eyes, now the world’s mine
[Verse 1]
Started at the bottom, dreams so big, pockets so empty
Hustled every day, no glory, just plenty
Street corners my kingdom, hope was the remedy
Worked my way up, no handouts, only me
Mama cried tears, said life was unfair
But I had fire, knew I was meant to get there
Climbed out the dirt, paved my own way
From poverty’s grip, now I got something to say
[Pre-Chorus]
Never gave up, kept my faith alive
Battled through storms, now I thrive
From rags to riches, a story so real
This is the path I chose, the deal that I sealed
[Chorus]
Rich in my mind, pockets start to fill
Struggles behind, only dreams to fulfill
Money on the line, but I stay true
From poor to power, yeah, I broke through
[Verse 2]
They laughed at my name, said I’d never make it
But I seen the stars before I could take it
Turned sacrifice into my reward
Now my voice got power, moving accord
Every brick I laid, built my castle
From the dirt, now I’m sitting, eyes full of hassle
Made my own luck, turned my pain into gain
From suffering’s chain to financial fame
[Pre-Chorus]
Homies in the struggle, now living large
From the streets to the charts, I set the charge
Never forget where I come from, stay humble
From a penny to a fortune, I never stumble
[Chorus]
Rich in my mind, pockets start to fill
Struggles behind, only dreams to fulfill
Money on the line, but I stay true
From poor to power, yeah, I broke through
[Outro]
This is my story, from nothing to everything
Hard work’s the key that I’m forever singing
Keep your head up, no matter what you face
Dreams come true, ain’t no time for haste
