[Hook – Melodic / Solo Vocal]
Runnin’ through the city, can’t trust a soul (nah)
Money on my mind, gotta reach my goal (grrt)
Pain in my chest, but I never fold (skrrt)
If I fall tonight, I’ll rise tenfold (baow)
Ops talk slick, but they never seen my lane (lane)
Loyalty first, I don’t play no games (games)
From the mud to the top, I stake my claim (claim)
Every night I grind, can’t erase the flame (grrt, baow)

[Verse 1 – Sleepy Hallow bounce / Lil Baby cadence]
Came from the block where the nights was cold
Had to move smart, never do what I’m told
Chains on my neck, but my story’s gold
Enemies lurk, better watch who you fold
Mama prayed, I made it out the storm
Now the drip heavy, new life I perform
Couple scars on my soul, lessons worn
But I keep pushin’, through the pain I transform (grrt, baow)

[Verse 2 – Lil Baby style]
Ops movin’ silent, I’m ridin’ with the team (grrt)
Big bands in my pockets, stackin’ up the green (stack)
Never back down, stay sharp and lean (lean)
From the mud to the top, now I reign supreme
Lost a couple dogs, but I carry their name
All these late nights grindin’, it’s part of the game
Trust few, move smart, that’s how I maintain
Every step calculated, never actin’ in vain (skrrt, baow)

[Bridge – Sleepy Hallow melodic pain]
Through the nights, I see the snakes crawl…
Fake friends switch, I don’t trust at all…
Every loss made me stand tall…
From the mud to the sky, I claim it all…
