Lights in The Storm

Yeah
Long nights
Still breathing
Look
Came
from the cold
with a fire inside
Back against walls
but we still survived
Whole team tired
but we still arrived
Hands full scarred up
dreams still alive
Lights in the storm
Still glowing
Head down
Keep going
No fear in the blood
Just motion
One life
Wide open
I done seen dark
days break good men
Seen broke souls
still stand tall
Seen moms work
two damn jobs
Just to keep heat
in them small walls
That's why I
can't quit now
Too many names
on my back
Too many nights
I stayed awake
Too many roads I
can't go back
I was down bad
with a cracked phone screen
Bus rides late
with my head low
Now every setback fuel
for the climb
Every cold night built tenfold
Still got mud
on the boots
Still got pain
in the ribs
But I learned hard
times don't kill
If your reason to
fight too big
No silver spoon
No handout luck
Just discipline
when the tank got low
Every small win stacked
brick by brick
Now the whole
damn skyline glow
Ain't no ceiling now
Ain't no fear left
Pressure made diamonds
Pain made steps
Came
from the cold
with a fire inside
Back against walls
but we still survived
Whole team tired
but we still arrived
Hands full scarred up
dreams still alive
Lights in the storm
Still glowing
Head down
Keep going
No fear in the blood
Just motion
One life
Wide open
I want more
for the ones I love
More than stress
and overdue rent
More than surviving
week to week
Watching hope get
crushed by debt
So I run
like time got teeth
Like every second cost gold
Like the younger
me still watching
Asking if we gon' fold
Never
I carry every loss
with pride
Every scar became direction
Every doubt became more fuel
Every failure built aggression
Now the vision too clear
Can't nobody cloud that
I done built strength
from the bottom
You can't teach how
to craft that
If the road get steep
Then lean forward
If the world get cold
Bring heat stronger
Every champion once looked lost
Every legend once moved hungry
You don't know how
close you are
Right before everything changes
Sometimes the pressure
Means the walls breaking open
Not closing in
Came
from the cold
with a fire inside
Back against walls
but we still survived
Whole team tired
but we still arrived
Hands full scarred up
dreams still alive
Lights in the storm
Still glowing
Head down
Keep going
No fear in the blood
Just motion
One life
Wide open
Still here
Still rising
Even after the storm
