About
Raw rap vocals ride a classic boom bap kick-snare pattern over soulful sampling loops chopped from vintage funk records, underpinned by a rumbling heavy bassline and intricate swung hi-hat patterns. The production builds tension with vinyl scratches and layered ad-libs, capturing the grit of personal battles and triumphant resolve. Sparse synth stabs punctuate the chorus for emotional peaks in this streetwise anthem.
Lyrics
Yo, deep in the night, shadows closin' in tight Battlin' demons that won't let me sleep right But I rise, yeah, I grind through the fight
Woke up chained to the weight of my past mistakes Heart heavy like stones in a river it breaks Friends turned ghosts, left me out in the cold Dreams deferred, stories untold Pockets empty, but fire in my soul burns bright Nights I questioned if I'd make it through the night Voices screamin', pullin' me down low But I clench my fists, refuse to let go Sweat and tears mix on this uneven road Every scar's a map to the strength I reload Lost my way in the storm, couldn't see the shore Now I'm buildin' empires from the ashes on the floor
I'm fightin' through the pain, yeah, breakin' these chains Personal wars in my veins, but I claim my domain No surrender, no retreat, I'm ownin' this flame Struggle shaped me strong, now I'm changin' the game Fightin' through the pain, breakin' these chains Personal wars, but victory remains
Mirror shows a warrior scarred but unbowed Doubts like vultures circlin', screamin' out loud Bills stack high, love slipped through my hands Family fractured, tryin' to understand Hustled in the dark, dodged the pitfalls and traps Fed my hunger with bars, put my life on the tracks Enemies lurkin', but I trust no one's mask Turned my wounds into weapons, now I strike back fast From the bottomless pit, I carved my escape Every setback a lesson, fuel for the blaze No more hidin', I'm facin' the beast Personal hell forged a king from the least
Slow it down, feel the pulse in my chest Breathe through the chaos, put doubts to rest This struggle's my teacher, harsh but true I'm risin' above, yeah, me and you No more chains, I'm free in the fire Higher and higher, fueled by desire
I'm fightin' through the pain, yeah, breakin' these chains Personal wars in my veins, but I claim my domain No surrender, no retreat, I'm ownin' this flame Struggle shaped me strong, now I'm changin' the game Fightin' through the pain, breakin' these chains Personal wars, but victory remains
Yeah, from the struggle I came, now I'm unstoppable Personal battles won, story's just begun Rise up, rise up, we own the night Through the fire, we ignite
