[Intro – R&B, half-sung]
Yeah…
Late nights, city don’t sleep
Heart heavy but my vision deep
If they don’t feel me now, they will
Watch—
[Chorus – R&B Hook]
Hear me now, I been screaming in silence
Prayed for a way out, built it with violence
Against my own doubts, scars and the sirens
They love you when you up, hate when you rising
Hear me now, this ain’t luck, it’s alignment
Pain in my voice, but the tone still timeless
From the floor to the lights, perfect timing
I ain’t next—nah, I’m right now
[Verse 1 – Rap]
Came from a place where the hope get thin
Where the rent due fast and the checks come slim
Mama said “pray,” but the rent said “when?”
So I learned real quick how to bet on him
Me
I was broke with a dream and a cracked phone screen
Writing bars on my notes while I’m dodging the scene
Every loss taught lessons, every win felt mean
‘Cause they smile in your face but they envy your beam
I done slept on floors, I done ate off pride
I done lost real love tryna chase that ride
Now my name in rooms I was denied
Funny how they switch when the numbers get high
[Pre-Chorus – Melodic Rap]
I ain’t bitter, I’m better, I carry the weight
If I say it, I mean it, I don’t hesitate
Every tear that I cried turned straight into faith
Now I’m knocking on doors and they open—too late
[Chorus – R&B Hook]
Hear me now, I been screaming in silence
Prayed for a way out, built it with violence
Against my own doubts, scars and the sirens
They love you when you up, hate when you rising
Hear me now, this ain’t luck, it’s alignment
Pain in my voice, but the tone still timeless
From the floor to the lights, perfect timing
I ain’t next—nah, I’m right now
[Verse 2 – Rap, more aggressive]
Look—
I ain’t friendly with fake, I keep distance
If you switch on your day ones, that’s weakness
They want proof of your worth, not your existence
But I bet on myself, that’s persistence
I was down bad, still dressed like a vision
Had faith even when I was missing
Now the chains look heavy, but listen—
It’s the weight of the times I survived in
Labels calling my phone like it’s urgent
Same ones who ain’t hear me when I was hurting
I don’t need validation or purpose
I was chosen, I knew it on the surface
[Bridge – R&B, emotional]
If I fall, I get up again
If I lose, I still win
They don’t know what it cost me then
So when I shine, let me shine—amen
[Chorus – R&B Hook, final]
Hear me now, I been screaming in silence
Prayed for a way out, built it with violence
Against my own doubts, scars and the sirens
They love you when you up, hate when you rising
Hear me now, this ain’t luck, it’s alignment
Pain in my voice, but the tone still timeless
From the floor to the lights, perfect timing
I ain’t next—nah, I’m right now
[Outro – Spoken/Melodic]
They gon’ hear this…
Whether they ready or not.
