Prompt / Lyrics
“They said we'd never make it. They said we'd die in the dust. They didn't know us. They didn't know what it means to build from nothing. Let me tell you." --- [VERSE 1] I met Rhys in the rubble. Both of us broken. Both of us running. He had a chip in his arm and a lie in his teeth. I had nothing but the thing that kept me alive: loyalty. I don't know why I followed him. Maybe because he was scared. Maybe because when the world falls apart, The only thing that matters is the hand that reaches for you in the dark. He reached. I grabbed. I never let go. --- [HOOK] FROM SCRATCH! FROM SCRATCH! WE BUILT IT FROM NOTHING! WE BUILT IT FROM ASH! FROM SCRATCH! FROM SCRATCH! THEY SAID WE'D NEVER MAKE IT BACK! BUT WE'RE STILL HERE! FROM SCRATCH! --- [VERSE 2] I was a bandit king once. I ruled the dump. I wore a mask made of trash and a crown made of rust. I didn't choose it. But when the world gives you nothing, You build a kingdom from the scraps they leave behind. Rhys found me there. He said "come build. Come be something more than a king of nothing." He had a logo in his pocket and a prayer in his chest. I followed. He's the only thing that felt like home. --- [BRIDGE] "You ever have someone who believed in you? When you were a king of garbage and a joke in a mask? Rhys looked at me like I was something. I'll never stop building for that." --- [VERSE 3] We built it from nothing. From scrap. From sweat. From the people who believed in a name that wasn't born yet. The workers came. The ones who wanted something other than the game. They wanted a home. We built them a home. Rhys carries the weight. Zer0 carries the blade. I carry the promise. The thing that stays. I'm not a CEO. I'm the one who holds the ground. When the workers come home. When they're not alone. That's the vow. From scratch. We built it to last. --- [FINAL HOOK] FROM SCRATCH! FROM SCRATCH! WE BUILT IT FROM NOTHING! WE BUILT IT FROM ASH! FROM SCRATCH! FROM SCRATCH! THEY SAID WE'D NEVER MAKE IT BACK! BUT WE'RE STILL HERE! WE BUILT IT FOR THE ONES WHO STAY! FROM SCRATCH! FROM SCRATCH! WE BUILT IT TODAY! --- [OUTRO] "They said we'd never make it. They didn't know that the only thing that matters is the hand that reaches for you in the dark. Rhys reached. I grabbed. We built. From scratch. From the promise that we'd never let go." "Atlas will rise. Because of us. The ones who stayed. The ones who believed something new was worth the sweat. That's the vow. From scratch. Always."
