Prompt / Lyrics
(Intro – spoken) Yeah… Rooster crowed. City still asleep. But I heard it. (Hook) I don’t blink when the truth hit different Stand tall, ten toes, no flinchin’ Flood waters rise, I’m still in it Keys in my hand ‘cause I lived it Three denials, now I get it Weight on my chest but I lift it Sun come up, I don’t flinch West Coast still, I don’t flinch (Verse 1) Peter in the alley with the sirens hummin’ Said he didn’t know Him — fear was runnin’ Cold night, firelight, crowd start judgin’ Sometimes survival feel like betrayal comin’ Rooster crow cut through the noise Truth don’t whisper, it destroys Everything fake you built for cover Leaves you naked in your own voice We do it too, don’t lie Say “it’s fine” while the levees cry Say “it’s small” while the data rise Say “it’s cool” while the old world dies Three strikes, that’s human Freeze up when the shift start movin’ Whole paradigm already proven But comfort keep the mind from choosin’ (Hook) I don’t blink when the truth hit different Stand tall, ten toes, no flinchin’ Flood waters rise, I’m still in it Keys in my hand ‘cause I lived it Three denials, now I get it Weight on my chest but I lift it Sun come up, I don’t flinch West Coast still, I don’t flinch (Verse 2) This ain’t rage, this clarity Heavy crown, no vanity Judgment ain’t power fantasy It’s seein’ things how they have to be Sat in the silence long enough Let the pressure make me tough Didn’t run when the mirror cracked Stayed right there when it got rough Whole network feel the quake Information overload ache Everybody know it’s changed But nobody wanna be first to say Flood don’t ask if you ready Truth don’t move slow and steady It hits like bass in a Chevy Windows shake — soul get heavy (Bridge – melodic) Still… like the ocean before it breaks Still… like the second before it wakes Still… when the mask finally slips Still… when the key in your fist (Hook) I don’t blink when the truth hit different Stand tall, ten toes, no flinchin’ Flood waters rise, I’m still in it Keys in my hand ‘cause I lived it Three denials, now I get it Weight on my chest but I lift it Sun come up, I don’t flinch West Coast still, I don’t flinch (Outro – spoken) Not for the worthy. For the ones who stayed. For the ones who felt it. For the ones who didn’t look away. Rooster crowed. I heard it.
