Prompt / Lyrics
Intro Yeah… Boots on gravel, lungs full of smoke, Ain’t a hero, ain’t broke—just still here. Verse 1 Half of me up before the sun, grind mode, Coffee black, jaw set, heart cold. Bills due, pride high, pain tucked deep, I don’t talk about the nights I don’t sleep. Smile stiff like I’m good, yeah I pass the test, But my knuckles still ache from the life I wrestle. I learned quick how to bleed without noise, Turn anger into armor, silence into poise. Pre-Chorus I been walkin’ this line like a deal with the devil, One foot in peace, one foot in metal. Say “stay calm,” say “be a better man,” But the other voice just tightens its hands. Chorus Half of me is fightin’ like hell to keep my shit together, Other half tired of bleedin’ quiet forever. Split down the middle on a road with no signs, Tryna keep it holy while I flirt with the fire. Yeah I’m split down the middle, still holdin’ my ground, One voice says “breathe,” other says “burn it down.” Verse 2 I don’t beg, don’t chase, don’t bark—just bite, I let karma swing heavy while I stay out the light. Seen snakes in the grass wear friendly smiles, Learned loyalty’s rare after walkin’ them miles. I gave grace till it cost me my spine, Now I move like a ghost with a loaded mind. Ain’t proud of the rage but I know its name, It was born in the dirt, raised in the flame. Pre-Chorus Demons talk slick when I’m feelin’ low, Tell me “let go,” let the whole thing go. But I ain’t here to crash, I’m here to survive, I just keep one hand close to the line. Chorus Half of me is fightin’ like hell to keep my shit together, Other half tired of bleedin’ quiet forever. Split down the middle on a road with no signs, Tryna keep it holy while I flirt with the fire. Yeah I’m split down the middle, still holdin’ my ground, One voice says “breathe,” other says “burn it down.” Bridge This ain’t a meltdown, it’s a measured threat, I know who I was, I ain’t him yet. I don’t need revenge, I don’t need to prove, But don’t push a man who’s got nothin’ to lose. I keep my demons leashed, but they know my scent, They pace that cage waitin’ on consent. I don’t snap easy, I don’t fold quick— But I do remember every line you crossed, slick. Final Chorus Half of me is fightin’ like hell to keep my shit together, Other half tired of bleedin’ quiet forever. Split down the middle, but I’m holdin’ the wheel, Won’t let the worst side decide what’s real. Yeah I’m split down the middle—hear the gravel, the sound, I won’t burn the world… but I won’t back down. Outro Still standin’. Still breathin’. Outlaw soul, Self-control.
