Lyrics
[Intro]
Clock in
Same hoodie, same scarred hands
Who’s comin’ to save me?
Exactly
[Verse 1]
Used to wait on a lifeline
Staring at the ceiling fan, fried mind
Bills stacked like a skyline
Fridge light, only thing that was bright, right
Nobody knocking on the door with a bailout
Only heard “work harder” when the pay’s out
So I put the weight on my own spine
Turn my back pain into gold mine
I was raised on “get up, don’t whine”
Blood in the laces, still I toe that line
Every little setback, fuel in the veins
Every late night, etching my name
[Chorus]
I was built from the basement, brick by brick
Never begged for a hand, just a tighter grip
If you ride when it’s dark, I will ride right back
If you love me at my lows, I will hold you like that
I don’t pray for a savior, I just sharpen my axe
But I’ll bleed for the ones
Yeah, I’ll bleed for the ones
Who would bleed right back (hey!)
[Verse 2]
I don’t chase fake hugs, fake praise
Seen ‘em all vanish in the hard days
Smile in your face, then they ghost when it’s heavy
I remember who stayed when my chest got empty
You were there on the couch, both eyes red
Laughing through the layoffs, counting every thread
Shared last slice when the rent came due
So I split my wins, every plate, that’s you
Middle finger to the ones that only love the shine
They ain’t read the chapters where I almost flatlined
They ain’t seen the grind in the cracked phone screen
They only see the stage, not the nights between
[Chorus]
I was built from the basement, brick by brick
Never begged for a hand, just a tighter grip
If you ride when it’s dark, I will ride right back
If you love me at my lows, I will hold you like that
I don’t pray for a savior, I just sharpen my axe
But I’ll bleed for the ones
Yeah, I’ll bleed for the ones
Who would bleed right back
[Bridge]
Who’s there when the world goes quiet?
Name ‘em
Who stayed when your head caught fire?
Save ‘em
That’s your circle, that’s your tribe
That’s your reason to survive (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
I was built from the basement, brick by brick
Never begged for a hand, just a tighter grip
If you ride when it’s dark, I will ride right back
If you love me at my lows, I will hold you like that
I don’t pray for a savior, I just sharpen my axe
But I’ll bleed for the ones
Yeah, I’ll bleed for the ones
Who would bleed right back
