Philly Outlaw: Broken But Brutal by Denway - Zona

Lyrics

[intro Instrumental]

[Verse 1]

Tumbled down the stairs, crash-landing like a boulder

Leg snapped, pain colder than a bitch on my shoulder

Doc said, “Rest up,” fuck that, I’m a soldier

What don’t kill builds steel, now my grind’s much bolder

Morphine drip, but my mind still hostile

Cussin’ out the pain, every breath feels colossal

Scars on my body but my spirit won’t quit

Life swung a hammer, I swung back with a brick

[Pre-Chorus]

Yeah, fucked up bones, but I still walk tall

Can’t break a real one, I was born to brawl

Every scar is a medal, every limp is a crown

Try to bury me, bitch, I’ma rise from the ground

[Chorus]

Fell down stairs, now I rise

Broken leg, but the fire don’t die

What don’t kill me, sharpens my claws

Don’t get it twisted, I’m the Philly outlaw

[Verse 2]

Keep a 9 on standby, tucked in the nightstand

Family the backbone, tougher than a kickstand

Raised in the gutter where the angels don’t land

Blood on the curb, that’s the city’s brand

Fuck luck, I make moves in the dirt and the smoke

Catch me in the alley, blade sharp, gun spoke

Inner Philly raised me, streets carved my skin

I heal like Wolverine, bitch I’ll always win

[Pre-Chorus]

Yeah, pain’s just fuel, I sip it like gin

Every break in my bones just thickens my skin

Talk shit if you want, you ain’t built for the war

I’ve been bleeding on the steps, came back wanting more

[Chorus]

Fell down stairs, now I rise

Broken leg, but the fire don’t die

What don’t kill me, sharpens my claws

Don’t get it twisted, I’m the Philly outlaw

[Bridge]

Limp turned strut, now the swag full throttle

Pain turned power, sipping strength from the bottle

Motherfuckers throw shade, but my shine still colossal

Brick by brick, I’m the Philly apostle

[Verse 3]

Leg in a cast but my fists still swing

Cussin’ out the devil, let the church bells ring

Blood on my jeans, but the crown still mine

Try to drag me down, I’ll drag you through the grime

Fuck fate, I write scripts with my busted-ass pen

Every fall just a start, I’m reborn again

You can’t kill what’s cursed, can’t drown what’s raw

Philly outlaw forever, I’m the street’s last law

[Chorus]

Fell down stairs, now I rise

Broken leg, but the fire don’t die

What don’t kill me, sharpens my claws

Don’t get it twisted, I’m the Philly outlaw

[Outro]

Bitch I fell, but I crawled, now I walk with a snarl

Turn a fracture to a weapon, pain etched in my scars

Philly born, Philly bred, I don’t bow, I don’t crawl

Try to break me again, I’ll break your fucking jaw

Blood on the stairs, but I rose from the wreck

World bet against me, now I’m cashin’ the check

Can’t kill a motherfucker that was built in the war

Outlaw forever, carve my name in the floor
