Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse] Cold nights, concrete my mattress, no thread Hunger pangs, stomach talking louder than my head Family vanished, a ghost town where love bled Dropped out, math books swapped for street cred [Chorus] From the dirt to the sky, man, I clawed for the view Broken boy in the mirror, but I’m patching him new Found love in the chaos, in her eyes, something true Now I’m climbing out the fire, yeah, I’m bidding adieu [Verse 2] Back alleys taught me lessons school could never reach Currency of survival, slangin' words the streets preach Numbed veins, glass pipe sermons, life seemed out of reach But I met her, a lighthouse on this shadowed beach [Bridge] She said, "Boy, you’re more than these chains that you wear More than powder and despair, more than death’s stare" Took my hand, broke the cycle, gave my lungs clean air Now I’m walking roads I never thought I’d dare [Chorus] From the dirt to the sky, man, I clawed for the view Broken boy in the mirror, but I’m patching him new Found love in the chaos, in her eyes, something true Now I’m climbing out the fire, yeah, I’m bidding adieu [Verse 3] Pavement whispers, still call, but I ain’t picking up Used to sip poison, now I toast clean in my cup Bruised knuckles, calloused heart, but I’m standing up Love saved a dropout; man, I leveled up
