Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse] Dark clouds heavy, sittin' on my chest Days feel longer, can't catch my breath Pavement cracked, mirror shows my scars Each cut a lesson, written in the stars [Prechorus] Sometimes I stumble, but I keep on learning Flames in my path, but I keep on burning [Chorus] If I didn’t go through what I went through I wouldn’t know what I know now Hard roads teach the steps to survive Bruised but alive, I’m earning my crown [Verse 2] Empty fridge, dreams louder than my stomach growls Streetlights flicker, shadows form my vows Pain's the professor, I’m her toughest class Cried tears that turned to diamonds in the glass [Bridge] Could’ve folded, could’ve quit, could’ve ran away But I stood in the storm, let it wash my grey Every bruise, every crack made my armor thick Life threw the punches, I learned every trick [Chorus] If I didn’t go through what I went through I wouldn’t know what I know now Hard roads teach the steps to survive Bruised but alive, I’m earning my crown
