[Intro – low, commanding] They showed the chains. They showed the cages. But they never showed the dominance. Let me fix that.
[Hook – aggressive, triumphant] Chained us, broke us, tried to erase Still rose up, still took our place From fields to courts, to stadium lights Turned survival into victory nights They show our scars on every screen But never show how hard we win From nothing to dominance Yeah… this is providence
[Verse 1 – raw history] They beat our backs, shackled our stride Tried to strip the manhood, bury the pride Worked us sun-up, starved the soul Then shocked we strong, shocked we cold They taught us pain before they taught us play So when we compete, it ain’t just a game We ran ‘cause we had to, chased just to live Now we outrun records they never thought we’d give Built bodies in bondage, strength from stress So when we hit the field, we hit possessed That ain’t luck, that’s evolution Pressure made diamonds, not excuses
[Hook – chant, stacked] From chains to championships FACT From fields to ownership LOOK They taught us survival first Now we dominate on every surface Football, basketball, baseball too Anything we touch, we run it through They hate the shine but love the view Built to prevail, yeah that’s the truth
[Verse 2 – sports + dominance] Couldn’t even play, had to fight to compete Now the league don’t move if we don’t eat Quarterbacks, point guards, MVPs Whole franchises rise on our knees They sell our jerseys, copy our style But still paint us criminals every trial They show the mugshots, never the medals Never the discipline, never the levels Never the film room, never the grind Never the genius in a trained mind We dominate strategy, speed, and force But they only talk downfall, never source
[Bridge – half beat] If greatness was accidental We wouldn’t be this consistent
[Verse 3 – system exposed, strength affirmed] They criminalized our hustle, monetized our fall Then fear us ‘cause we still stand tall More time for drugs than murderers get But we still produce legends they can’t forget They show stereotypes on repeat But won’t show boardrooms, doctors, elite Won’t show fathers fighting the odds Won’t show scholars breaking the frauds They scared if the balance ever get shown ‘Cause dominance plus truth mean the system gone
[Hook – FINAL, victorious] Chained us, broke us, tried to erase Still rose up, still took our place From fields to courts, to stadium lights Turned survival into victory nights They show our scars on every screen But never show how hard we win From nothing to dominance Yeah… this is providence
[Outro – calm, powerful] We didn’t just survive history. We mastered it. And every time we dominate— That’s proof they failed. Beat fades. [Bridge – half beat] If greatness was accidental We wouldn’t be this consistent [Bridge – half beat] If greatness was accidental We wouldn’t be this consistent [Bridge – half beat] If greatness was accidental We wouldn’t be this consistent [Bridge – half beat] If greatnes
