[Verse 1]
I came up with a cracked phone
And a hard head
Mama said "move right"
I moved with the cart bread
Back of the bus
Same shoes, same scuff
Counted every loss
Then I learned enough
Corner store light
On my face, on my plans
Old chain, new day
Young man with no hands
Built my own lane
On a block full of doubt
If the door stay shut
I'ma talk my way out
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that?
That's my name in the wind
One step, then another
Now I let it begin
No sleep, no slack
I been made for this climb
Whole room on my back
But I carry the time
[Chorus]
Block on the corner
Block on the corner
Still stand tall
Still stand tall
Block on the corner
Block on the corner
I don't fold
I don't fall
(Still stand tall)
(Still stand tall)
[Verse 2]
I seen friends switch sides
For a quick little shine
Seen big talk die
When the work don't align
I kept my circle small
Like a fist in the rain
Every scar got a story
Every win got a name
Dirty sneakers on
But I walk like a king
Broke days taught me more
Than a gold plated ring
Now the hand on the dial
When the pressure come near
I don't beg for a lane
I make room right here
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that?
That’s my name in the wind
One step, then another
Now I let it begin
No sleep, no slack
I been made for this climb
Whole room on my back
But I carry the time
[Chorus]
Block on the corner
Block on the corner
Still stand tall
Still stand tall
Block on the corner
Block on the corner
I don't fold
I don't fall
(Still stand tall)
(Still stand tall)
[Bridge]
If the day come heavy
I keep mine in motion
If the road get rough
I just sharpen my focus
Ain't no throne in my hand
Just a will and a scar
But I came this far
I'ma go that far
[Final Chorus]
Block on the corner
Block on the corner
Still stand tall
Still stand tall
Block on the corner
Block on the corner
I don't fold
I don't fall
(Still stand tall)
(Still stand tall)
Block on the corner
Block on the corner
Watch me rise
Watch me rise
