Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] They want me gone by dawn Jokes on them I’m still drawn To every line, every sin (yeah) [Verse 1] World built like a cage, but I slip through the bars Had to learn how to aim in a room full of scars Every handshake cold, every favor got strings Every promise got teeth, every smile got stings Saw my brother take a fall for a dollar and a chain Saw the reaper at the door, had to walk through the rain Put a target on my back, still I move like a ghost Every loss, every L, turned it into a oath Told mom, “I’ll be back,” when the nights turned red Turned hunger into hustle, turned hate into bread They pray on my name, but I pray on my knees If I’m running from death, then I’m running with speed (skrrt) [Chorus] I was built to break, but I broke the system Dodging every grave that they wrote me in ’em They want me gone, want me buried alive I evade that fate every time I survive Whole world set up just to hold me down I turned every brick to a throne, to a crown If they bet on my fall, that’s a bad design I escape that plot every time I’m alive (I’m alive) [Verse 2] They said, “Pick a side,” but the sides all fake Put poison in the deal, put a knife in the shake Every corner got a story I don’t wanna repeat So I carry all the names that got lost on the street Sleep light, one eye on the smoke in the air Got my back to the wall, but I’m right with the prayer If the devil want dues, he can stand in the line I’ve been dodging his calls, I decline every time Turned fear to a map, every trap, I’ve seen it Every rumor on my name? I outlived the meaning If they cap my dreams, I just rip that page Make a new blueprint from the cracks and rage (yeah) [Chorus] I was built to break, but I broke the system Dodging every grave that they wrote me in ’em They want me gone, want me buried alive I evade that fate every time I survive Whole world set up just to hold me down I turned every brick to a throne, to a crown If they bet on my fall, that’s a bad design I escape that plot every time I’m alive (I’m alive) [Bridge] How many times did I dance with the edge? How many nights did I sleep with a pledge? If I wake, I grind, if I fall, I climb If they steal my light, I still shine in the blind (shine) [Chorus] I was built to break, but I broke the system Dodging every grave that they wrote me in ’em They want me gone, want me buried alive I evade that fate every time I survive Whole world set up just to hold me down I turned every brick to a throne, to a crown If they bet on my fall, that’s a bad design I escape that plot every time I’m alive (I’m alive)
