[Intro – Spoken]
Yeah…
Crates in the corner, soul in the sample
Life looped me up—but I flipped the example
[Verse 1]
Kick-snare pattern like a heartbeat knock
Life tried to fade me, but I don’t stop
Crack in the vinyl, pain in the groove
Every scar I earned gave the needle a move
Back when my confidence sat on low
Dreams felt distant like a late-night show
I was boxed in, mind in a cage
Young soul trapped in an old soul’s rage
But pressure bust pipes or it make ’em shine
I chose elevation, one bar at a time
No cosign needed, I signed my scars
Turned cold nights into guiding stars
Used to fear endings, now I embrace
Every closed chapter just cleared me space
The old me died, had to let him go
Now I build from the bones—resurrection flow
[Hook – Scratched Style]
“Rebirth” — cut it
“Growth” — flip it
“Rise up” — bring it back
From the dust we pivot
Ashes to art, heart stay gold
New mind state, same old soul
Boom bap drums when the truth gets told
Fall down seven, stand up bold
[Verse 2]
Boom bap baptism, baptized in grit
Had to cleanse my ego just to level my wit
Took L’s to the chest like a sparring match
Now wisdom stitched where the seams once cracked
I remember nights staring at the ceiling
Fighting inner wars no one else was feeling
Smiles on the surface, doubt underneath
Planting fake comfort but harvesting grief
So I dug real deep where the roots get ugly
Faced my shadow, it tried to mug me
Said “You ain’t ready, you too far gone”
I said “Watch me evolve,” then I moved on
Growth ain’t glitter, it’s sweat and strain
It’s losing what’s safe just to break the chain
Every setback was weight I pressed
Now I bench my fears with it on my chest
[Bridge – Spoken Over Beat Break]
No overnight glow-up
Just slow cook elevation
Marinated in mistakes
Seasoned with revelation
[Verse 3]
Now I walk like a man who rebuilt his spine
Backbone forged in the fire of time
Lost some people when I changed lanes
Guess they loved comfort, not growing pains
That’s cool—evolution costs
You either transform or you get lost
I shed dead skin like autumn leaves
New perspective up my sleeves
Rebirth ain’t mystical smoke and light
It’s choosing discipline over spite
It’s journaling truths at 3AM
Rewriting pain with a sharper pen
Boom bap drums keep the lesson pure
No auto-tune for the insecure
Just raw intention and crafted lines
A soul redesigning its own confines
[Hook – Harder]
“Rebirth” — cut it
“Growth” — flip it
“Rise up” — bring it back
From the dust we pivot
Ashes to art, heart stay gold
New mind state, same old soul
Boom bap drums when the truth gets told
Fall down seven, stand up bold
[Outro]
Yeah…
From the basement sessions to self-reflection
Every version of me was a draft in progression
Needle drop—new life begin
That’s rebirth… let the growth spin.
