Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Punched in before the sun
Hands raw, mind on one
Mom said, "Boy, keep pace"
Dad said, "Earn your place"
Bills stack like bricks
Stress in the mix
Love on my phone, then it fades
Money come quick, then it drains
I learned from the floor
What I couldn't ignore
If you want more than pain
You gotta build through the rain
[Pre-Chorus]
Keep my head low
Keep my faith high
Every loss taught me
How to stay alive
Every scar got a reason
Every fall got a lesson
I don't fold, I don't break
I just turn pain into leverage
[Chorus]
Brick by brick
I been building this
Love in my chest
But the money don't fix
Brick by brick
I still take the hit
Life get heavy
I don't quit, I don't quit
Brick by brick
Yeah, I live with it
Hard work first
That's how I get it
[Verse 2]
Been broke in a room
With a fridge full of air
Told "don't worry" too much
By people who ain't there
So I learned how to move
With a quiet kind of fire
Stack one small win
Then stack a little higher
Friendships change shape
When the rent is due
Some folks clap loud
When they think you through
But I kept my word
Even when it hurt
Came from the mud
Now I know my worth
[Pre-Chorus]
Keep my head low
Keep my faith high
Every loss taught me
How to stay alive
Every scar got a reason
Every fall got a lesson
I don't fold, I don't break
I just turn pain into leverage
[Chorus]
Brick by brick
I been building this
Love in my chest
But the money don't fix
Brick by brick
I still take the hit
Life get heavy
I don't quit, I don't quit
Brick by brick
Yeah, I live with it
Hard work first
That's how I get it
[Bridge]
Some days I miss who I was
Before the smoke and the rush
Before I learned trust got teeth
Before I learned enough ain't enough
Still, I hold that love like gold
In a world that go cold
If I lose my way, I remember
What my father once told me
[Final Chorus]
Brick by brick
I been building this
Love in my chest
But the money don't fix
Brick by brick
I still take the hit
Life get heavy
I don't quit, I don't quit
Brick by brick
Yeah, I live with it
Hard work first
That's how I get it

Style
Hip-hop rap with a hard-nosed boom-bap swing, dusty drums, elastic bass, and chopped soul stabs; verse rides tense and story-driven, pre-chorus tightens with snare rolls and filtered chops, chorus lands on a blunt chant with stacked gang doubles. Vocal is close-mic and gritty with ad-lib echoes, quick punch-ins, and a short breakdown before the final hook. Dark, punchy mix with crisp top-end and deep low punch., rap
