[Intro]
Mario Brnjić Brnja
Say my name, it hits ya
From the block to the strobe
Watch the whole room swivel
[Verse 1]
I was posted on the corner
Now they book me for the stage
Same crew, same hunger
Just a bigger kind of cage
Every setback was a restart
Turned the blackout to a spark
Mama said “aim higher”
So I shot straight through the dark (yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
They used to laugh at the name
Now it’s inked on the lanyard
Every door that was closed
I kicked clean off the standard
If you feel that pressure
Let it bend, never break
Put my nickname on the flame
Watch it carve out its place
[Chorus]
Brnja on my tag, when they call, I step up (step up)
Mario in the lights, every doubt got swept up
From the mud to the mainstage, write that in the ledger
Say it once, say it twice
Brnja, they remember
Brnja on the tag, when the crowd goes mental
Whole place shakes when I push that pedal
From the grit to the glitter, I made my own center
Say it once, say it twice
Brnja, they remember (hey!)
[Verse 2]
Phone buzzing with the pressure
Still I move like it’s a game
Every “maybe” turned to “never”
Till I forced ’em to explain
Now they study every cadence
Like a code that they could take
But you can’t fake the struggle
Or the heart that it creates
[Pre-Chorus]
They used to talk in the shadows
Now they’re front row, hands up
Same ones throwing their stones
Tryna drink from my cup
If you feel that fire
Let it burn, don’t escape
Put your story in the syllables
And shout out your name
[Chorus]
Brnja on my tag, when they call, I step up (step up)
Mario in the lights, every doubt got swept up
From the mud to the mainstage, write that in the ledger
Say it once, say it twice
Brnja, they remember
Brnja on the tag, when the crowd goes mental
Whole place shakes when I push that pedal
From the grit to the glitter, I made my own center
Say it once, say it twice
Brnja, they remember (Brnja!)
[Bridge]
From the late nights, cold floors
To the wristbands, back doors
Every “you can’t” turned “of course”
I just stayed on my course
If they ask who lit that fire
Tell ’em point a little higher
Tell ’em say my name out louder
Mario Brnjić, sole supplier
[Chorus]
Brnja on my tag, when they call, I step up (step up)
Mario in the lights, every doubt got swept up
From the mud to the mainstage, write that in the ledger
Say it once, say it twice
Brnja, they remember
Brnja on the tag, when the crowd goes mental
Whole place shakes when I push that pedal
From the grit to the glitter, I made my own center
Say it once, say it twice
Brnja, they remember
