Lyrics

[Intro]

Yeah

Thought that was the end of me

Guess it was the start, though

Listen

[Verse 1]

Caught you red-handed

Phone face down, still ringin'

Same lies, same tone

My stomach started sinkin'

Name on the screen

I knew, but I kept scrollin'

Read every word

Felt my whole chest foldin'

Bathroom floor

Cold tile on my cheek

Tried to scream your name

Couldn’t even speak

Friends said “leave”

I said “give it one more week”

Rock bottom ain’t a place

Till you’re too numb to weep

[Chorus]

I hit rock bottom

Thought I’d live there

Broken on the concrete

Breathin’ thin air

Now I build me up

Out the pieces that you dropped

You can watch from a distance

While I rise from the shock

Yeah, I hit rock bottom

But I’m touchin’ the top

[Verse 2]

Unfollowed your ghost

But you stayed in my mirror

Every little habit we had

Made you feel nearer

Used to blame myself

Like I drove you to stray

Now I see your pattern clear

You were runnin’ anyway

Therapy on Tuesday

Gym on Thursday night

Swapped your name in my phone

For a list of red lights

Blocked your number

But I kept your lesson

I don’t chase storms now

I protect my blessings

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

You took my trust

I took it back

Stitched my scars

Turned pain to tracks

Every setback

I stack, I stack

Built a ladder out of

Everything we lacked

[Chorus]

Style

rap, Dark, cinematic rap beat with detuned bells, moody pads, and tight punchy drums. Verses stay intimate and confessional, dry vocal up-front with subtle doubles. Choruses widen with airy harmonies and a rising synth bed; low 808 swells under key lines. Final hook adds extra ad-libs and octave vocal for a victorious, chest-out feel. Male vocals., rock
