Lyrics
Spoken Intro)
“They fought in the dark so I could see the light…
This life I’m livin’ was never just mine.”
(Verse 1)
I’m here off prayers I ain’t even pray,
Dreams they had that they never got to chase.
Grandma hands, grandpa pain,
Built this road so I could find my lane.
They was workin’ with they backs to the wall,
Still had hope when they had nothin’ at all.
I complain ‘bout the weight on my chest,
But they carried a world and still gave their best.
I see their eyes when I look in the mirror,
Every doubt, every fear get clearer.
They ain’t have the chance I got,
But they made sure I did, no matter the cost.
(Hook)
I walk on ground that was watered with tears,
Every step I take got a hundred years.
Of pain and faith behind my name,
They took the hurt so I could dream.
So I gotta live like I owe somebody,
’Cause I do — the ones who came before me.
(Verse 2)
They dreamed of days that they’d never see,
Freedom, peace, just to be me.
I get mad when life ain’t fair,
They lived through hell and still stayed there.
Still smiled, still gave love,
Still looked to the skies up above.
Said “maybe my son, maybe my kid
Will live the life I never did.”
That hit me deep, that cut my soul,
I can’t let their story go untold.
Every win I get ain’t just mine,
It’s for the bloodline, for the time.
(Hook)
I walk on ground that was watered with tears,
Every step I take got a hundred years.
Of pain and faith behind my name,
They took the hurt so I could dream.
So I gotta live like I owe somebody,
’Cause I do — the ones who came before me.
(Bridge)
If I ever feel like quittin’,
I think of them still pushin’
Through chains, storms, and night
Just so I could see some light.
(Outro)
So when I rise, they rise with me.
When I fall, they still believe.
I’m just a chapter in a bigger plan,
Written by the hands of stronger men
And stronger women too —
I’m livin’ proof
Of what they went through.
