[One-Take Verse]
Came up from the shadows where nobody tried to guide me,
Had to find a way out even when the world denied me.
Every time I fell, I got back up like it was timely,
Turned a lonely kid into a problem they can’t side-eye me.

They was never there when I was fightin’ for a place to stand,
Now they talk supportive ’cause they see me turn into a man.
Funny how they switch when they see your life start movin’ fast,
But when I was breakin’ down, they ain’t even lend a hand.

Heart froze young — trauma had me movin’ cautious,
Loyal to the wrong ones left me feelin’ like I lost it.
Had to tighten up ’cause bein’ nice became a drawback,
Loved too many people who ain’t ever try to call back.

Pain rewired everything I thought I understood,
Made me chase the money just to make the fam good.
Every scar I got became the reason that I push ahead,
Turned all of that pressure into somethin’ they could never dead.

Kept it lowkey, moved in silence, learned to be observant,
Watchin’ how they act around success taught me who deserved it.
Fought through situations that would break someone who wasn’t built,
Now the confidence you hear comes from battles I ain’t even spilt.

I been workin’ on myself, cuttin’ ties that kept me low,
Tryna build a future that my younger self be proud to know.
I don’t seek approval — I just want a path that’s truly mine,
A place where all the pain I carried don’t control the way I shine.

Learned to walk away from anybody with a shaky vibe,
’Cause peace feel way better than a hundred who ain’t down to ride.
Had to separate emotions from the ones that drain my mind,
’Cause every time I trusted wrong, the cost was somethin’ hard to find.

I ain’t lookin’ back — everything behind me had a lesson,
Every closed door made me sharper with the next step in.
Every failed bond showed me love don’t always come with blessin’s,
Swear I had to grow alone just to understand the message.
