Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah
I was down bad
But I ain’t stay there
Listen
[Verse 1]
Started with a thin plate
Three forks, five kids, one faith
Mama stretchin’ every last check
Sayin’, “We gon’ rise, just wait”
Pops workin’ late shifts, eyes red
Still cracked jokes at the side of the bed
Arguin’ in the kitchen, I’d hide in my room
Headphones on while the pots go boom
Drama in the house like a rerun
Words cut deep, you can’t un-say some
I learned how to breathe through the static
Count to ten, let the anger pass, then manage
Now I’m lookin’ back from the staircase
Same small rooms, but a different headspace
Hunger in my gut, not shame now
Turned all that pain to a game plan, laid out
[Chorus]
Came from the bottom, still here (still here)
Eyes on the sky, but my roots stay near (stay near)
They threw all that shade, I sat back, stayed clear
Watched the world spin, now the path look real
I took every hard time, turned that steel
Family on my back, that’s my shield, my gear
We fought through the drama, through the fear
From the bottom, from the bottom
Still here
[Verse 2]
I remember nights on the floor, heat off
Breath in the air, seein’ steam when we talk
Arguin’ in circles, same fight, week long
Door slam, then the “I’m sorry” felt wrong
I started sittin’ quiet in the hallway
Let ’em shout it out, I’d just watch it all play
Like a show that I already knew the end of
Vow in my chest, “I’ma write a new script, bruh”
Phone full of texts, he say, she say
Cousins pickin’ sides like it’s game day
I put that thing down, took a long walk
Let the world spin while I let my mind talk
“I ain’t gotta jump in every fire,”
Some bridges build slow, some retire
I choose peace where I can, that’s growth
Still show love, but protect my own soul
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Now when the drama get loud, I just lean back
Deep breath, let it ride, I don’t swing back
’Cause I seen too much, I done bled in that
Family taught me how to bend, never bend in half
Big sis said, “You stronger than you think, kid”
Little bro watchin’ every move that I did
So I keep my head high when the hurt come near
’Cause they held me in the dark, now the route feel clear
[Chorus]
