Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 Yeah… Came up out west where it’s rough and loud, Penrith roots but Druitt raised in crowds, Fourteen deep, yeah I fell in quick, Wrong direction but I moved like this. Street lights, fights, mates too grown, Trying to act hard but I felt alone, Drugs, chaos, running that race, But I was just a kid tryna find my place. Now I look back like damn that’s wild, Still carrying stuff from when I was a child, But I ain’t stuck, nah I’m moving ahead, Therapy talks got me clearing my head. ⸻ Hook / Chorus This the life of me, Hands stay dirty but my heart stay clean, Trying be better than I used to be, Yeah I’m healing slowly, But I’m standing on my feet. Dad first, work hard, still chasing peace, Scars in my past but I won’t be weak, Love in my soul, pain in my story… That’s the life of me. ⸻ Verse 2 Early mornings, shop doors up, Tyres on, cars fixed, no time for luck, Part owner dreams, franchise grind, Pressure on heavy but I’m built for the climb. Customers calling, stress gets loud, But I still show love, still hold it down, Then it’s boots on grass when the workday ends, Prem team fight with my brothers and friends. And people say “why you run so fast?” Bro I been sprinting from my own past, But now I’m learning how to slow it down, Find real strength when the noise ain’t around. ⸻ Hook / Chorus This the life of me, Hands stay dirty but my heart stay clean, Trying be better than I used to be, Yeah I’m healing slowly, But I’m standing on my feet. Dad first, work hard, still chasing peace, Scars in my past but I won’t be weak, Love in my soul, pain in my story… That’s the life of me. ⸻ Bridge (Real Talk) To my wife, yeah you know I’m here, I love you deep, I’m just facing fear, Growing pains but I’m doing the work, Breaking cycles even when it hurts. To my kids, you my reason why, I’ll be the man that don’t just survive, I’m building more than a business or name… I’m building peace out the pain. ⸻ Final Hook / Outro This the life of me, Not perfect but I’m trying to be, From those streets to a family, Yeah I’m healing slowly… That’s the life of me.
