Intro Yeah… Ain’t runnin’ no more Nah 808s and barbed wire Verse 1 (Country tone) I been hidin’ in the dark of a one-stop town Blamin’ bad luck, pointin’ fingers all around Mama said, “Son, that mirror don’t lie” But I kept lookin’ past it, chasin’ alibis Got scars from choices I pretended weren’t mine Dust on my name, guilt on my spine I tried to outrun it in a Chevy too fast But your past rides shotgun, yeah it sticks like that Pre-Chorus You can drown it in a bottle, bury it in a lie But the truth got roots, and it don’t die Chorus (Trap hook) Don’t run from your bullshit, stand in it Own that dirt, yeah, man up, plant in it Every bad move, every bridge you burned That’s the fire, let it teach you, let it hurt Bass knockin’ loud like the sins I kept But I’m breathin’ real now, no mask, no debt Don’t run from your bullshit, don’t fake that shine Face it, break it, make it yours—yeah, that’s growth time Verse 2 (Trap influence) 808s hummin’ like my thoughts at night Demons got receipts, yeah, they know I ain’t right Talked big game, but I folded under pressure Chasin’ quick wins, dodgin’ self-measure Social feed clean, but my soul was cluttered Said “I’m built different,” but I still self-sabotaged, stuttered Truth hit hard when the circle got thin Ain’t nobody left when you keep playin’ pretend Pre-Chorus You can flex for the crowd, keep the pain outta sight But the weight comes back heavy when you lay down at night Chorus Don’t run from your bullshit, stand in it Own that dirt, yeah, man up, plant in it Every bad move, every bridge you burned That’s the fire, let it teach you, let it hurt Bass knockin’ loud like the sins I kept But I’m breathin’ real now, no mask, no debt Don’t run from your bullshit, don’t fake that shine Face it, break it, make it yours—yeah, that’s growth time Bridge (Reflective / Country) Ain’t no halo waitin’ on a perfect man Just a second chance if you understand You ain’t what you did, but you are what you do When the blame stops here, that’s when you break through Verse 3 (Redemption) So I dug real deep, found truth in the mess Took the Ls, signed my name to the stress Apologized loud, changed quiet habits Stopped feedin’ the wolves, started feedin’ my balance Now it’s slow grind, no shortcuts taken Every sunrise feels hard-earned, sacred Still flawed, yeah, but I stand up straight When you own your shit, it don’t own you, man Final Chorus (Bigger, confident) I ain’t runnin’ from my bullshit, I’m standin’ in it Turned that dirt to roots, put my brand in it Every dark day, every wrong I learned Built a better me from the lessons burned Bass still knock, but my soul got depth I ain’t scared of truth, I invest in self Yeah, I faced it, broke it, made it mine That’s a better man on a hard-earned line Outro Yeah… Growth ain’t clean But it’s real And real lasts.

Own That Dirt
