By The Grace” (Drill/Trap Style Flow)
(Intro — talk yo talk)
Yeah…
Uh huh…
Ayy look…
We made it out… by the grace… ya feel me?
(Hook — punchy, drill bounce)
Slide on the opps (what?) with my boys, we deep (we deep!)
Stack that bread (stack it), pockets don’t fold, no crease (uh uh)
Unstoppable, came from the mud, no leash (no leash)
Shootouts — flyin’ by me like a breeze (grrah, bow!)
Growin’ up fast, gotta move with ease (skrrt)
Yawah changed my ways, now I’m off my knees (praise)
Out that dark spot, now I walk in peace (amen)
Out that hard life, now the blessings increase (yeah, yeah)
(Verse 1 — drill bounce, clear pockets for emphasis)
Late nights, backstreets, posted with the gang (gang)
Risk it all for the bag, didn’t care ‘bout pain (nah)
Heart cold, but the block hot, stay in my lane (brrt)
Shots rang, we was duckin’, prayin’ He sustain (bow, bow)
Coulda been gone —
Mama cryin’, sittin’ by the phone (uh)
But I’m here, so I’m movin’ like I know (I know)
Yawah spared me, gotta let it show (let it show)
Fast money, but it fade real quick (it fade)
Grew wiser, had to flip that script (uh huh)
Still slide, but my target done switched (new aim)
Used to spin, now I spin for the kids (yeah)
(Hook — repeat with drill ad-libs)
Slide on the opps (grrah!) with my boys, we deep (we deep!)
Stack that bread (stack it), pockets don’t fold, no crease (no crease)
Unstoppable, came from the mud, no leash (no leash)
Shootouts — flyin’ by me like a breeze (grrah, grrah!)
Growin’ up fast, gotta move with ease (move)
Yawah changed my ways, now I’m off my knees (blessings)
Out that dark spot, now I walk in peace (uh huh)
Out that hard life, now the blessings increase (let’s go!)
(Verse 2 — aggressive but switch to reflective at the end)
Spin the block? Yeah, I used to (used to)
But the prayers from my mama, they stuck too (they stuck)
Coulda been zipped, but He pulled through (grace)
Coulda been clipped, but He pushed through (bow)
I was in deep — now I slide with a plan (plan)
Faith in my steps, not the tool in my hand (uh huh)
Boys in the back, but we thinkin’ like men (we grown)
Grace over gang — we don’t spin just to spin (nah)
Coulda been a name on a R.I.P. (facts)
Coulda been lost in the things I see (true)
But Yawah came, now I’m walkin’ free (walkin’)
Out the pit — now it’s light on me (light)
(Hook — final, bring all energy)
Slide on the opps (what?) with my boys, we deep (grrah!)
Stack that bread (stack it), pockets don’t fold, no crease (never)
Unstoppable, came from the mud, no leash (from the mud)
Shootouts — flyin’ by me like a breeze (grrah, bow!)
Growin’ up fast, gotta move with ease (skrrt)
Yawah changed my ways, now I’m off my knees (praise)
Out that dark spot, now I walk in peace (peace)
Out that hard life, now the blessings increase (yeah, yeah)
(Outro — ride the beat)
Blessings up, yeah
Grace over gang
From the trap to the throne
We movin’ by the grace, by the grace, uh huh
