[Intro – Spoken / Harmonized]
[Softly sung through light auto-tune with deep reverb]
Yeah…
They tried to bury me in the dirt… but didn’t know I was a seed.
Pain made me patient… pressure made me gold.
Now look at me — I’m still standin’.
*(Ad-lib whisper: “Still standin’… still glowin’…”)
⸻
[Chorus – Sung / Melodic Rap]
I’m makin’ moves, power moves, it’s what I do,
No options left, I choose to push through.
Gold in my grit, pain made me shine,
Every scar a verse in this life of mine.
*(Ad-libs: “Yeah, I grind… all the time… can’t rewind…”)
⸻
[Verse 1 – Rap / Deep Vocal Flow]
Came from nothin’, just hope and a prayer,
Mama said “trust God, He’ll meet you there.”
Lost my job, lost friends, lost peace,
But I never lost faith, that’s my masterpiece.
System tried to label me — criminal, threat,
But I’m more than they bet, I ain’t foldin’ yet.
Turned that pain to my blueprint, tears to design,
Built a kingdom from ashes, and the crown is mine.
*(Ad-libs: “Can’t stop now… yeah, the fire’s divine…”)
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – Sung]
Pressure made me patient, pain made me grow,
Took every “no” and turned it to gold.
They don’t know the weight that I’ve been liftin’,
But every wound in my soul’s still glistenin’.
⸻
[Chorus – Sung / Layered Vocals]
I’m makin’ moves, power moves, it’s what I do,
No options left, I choose to push through.
Gold in my grit, pain made me shine,
Every scar a verse in this life of mine.
(Background: “Pain made me, don’t fade me, no…”)
⸻
[Verse 2 – Rap / Spoken Soul Cadence]
Used to dream in the dark — now my thoughts light the way,
Every night I prayed for peace, now I move with grace.
They threw shade, I grew roots, that’s how I bloom,
My legacy ain’t fear — it’s what I resume.
I was broken, yeah, torn in two,
Had the devil on my shoulder but my faith came through.
Every heartbreak taught me how to bend,
Now I’m built for the storm, not just the end.
*(Ad-libs: “Yeah, I’m built for it… I’m still standin’ tall…”)
⸻
[Bridge – Melodic Breakdown / Auto-tune Harmony]
You can take my job, take my pride,
But you can’t take what’s burnin’ inside.
Through the dirt, through the rain,
I found my peace inside the pain.
(Layered harmonies, synth pads swelling)
⸻
[Pre-Outro – Broken Chorus / Ad-lib Variation]
I’m makin’ moves (yeah), power moves (uh-huh),
No options left, I choose to push through (let’s go).
Gold in my grit (shine), pain made me lit (fire),
Every loss I took — became my gift.
(Ad-libs: “Yeah… still here… still fightin’… still risin’.”)
⸻
[Outro – Spoken / Soulful Delivery]
Yeah… 2025 tried to break me,
But it just made me holy.
See, I ain’t chasin’ the crown anymore —
I’m just learnin’ how to shine.
(Ad-lib whisper fading: “Gold in my grit… gold in my grit…”)
