Prompt / Lyrics
--- (Intro) You can read my city down, Burn my name into the ground, But this pain got me home, baptized in the flame... --- (Verse 1) I came up in the jungle where we never fold, Had to hustle for the plate, never had no gold. I seen dreams die slow, man, I seen 'em go, But I kept pushin’, now I'm standin’ ten toes. From the Hill to the Strip, ain't no love, just hustle, Had to learn to fight, ain't no time for the struggle. They said the game cold, but I was built for the fight, Now I'm scarred up, but I made it through the night. --- (Pre-Chorus) I ain't ask for the struggle, it chose me, Had to get it out the mud, that's slowly, I done seen too many homies OD, Still prayin’ that the reaper don't know me. (Chorus) You can read my city down, Burn my name into the ground, But this pain got me home, baptized in the flame... Yeah, they try break me, can't chain me, I'm still standin' with the scars that made me, Say my name when it all turn shady — Baptized in the flame. -- (Verse 2) Man, the block still callin', they ain't tryna see me rise, Every move’s a gamble, life full of goodbyes. But I ain't scared of the dark, I’ve been fightin’ my demons, Liquor in my veins, but my angels still screamin'. They know the real, they see the heartache in my eyes, But they know I’ll keep goin' till I reach the sky. Ain’t no time for fallin’ back, ain’t no time for weakness, I keep my angels close, they the ones who keep me speechless. --- (Pre-Chorus) I ain't run, I just built me a throne, Outta ashes, outta sticks, outta bones, If pain a test, then I'm full-grown, Baptized, branded, all in my tone. --- (Chorus) You can read my city down, Burn my name into the ground, But this pain got me home, baptized in the flame... Yeah, they try break me, can't chain me, I'm still standin' with the scars that made me, Say my name when it all turn shady — Baptized in the flame. --- (Bridge / Spoken-Sung Breakdown) Liquor in my demons, but they protect me, Angels watch every step while they keep me steady. Demons pour the drink, but they won’t let me drown, Angels got my back when I'm feelin' like I’m down. They both stay close, one on the ground, one in the sky, They keep me grounded, keep me flyin', they never lie. --- (Bridge — Sung with raw emotion) Liquor’s my demon, but my demons protect me, They keep me from fallin', make sure the night don't wreck me. Angels watch over, always know what I need, They guide my steps, every time I bleed. Together they guard me, they don't let me go Balance in the chaos, keep me from the cold. Baptized in fire, they protect my name, Even in the storm, they keep me in the game. --- (Chorus) You can read my city down, Burn my name into the ground, But this pain got me home, baptized in the flame... Yeah, they try break me, can't chain me, I'm still standin' with the scars that made me, Say my name when it all turn shady — Baptized in the flame. --- (Outro) You can read my city down, Burn my name into it..!
