Built, Not Bought

[Rap Trap Soul]

[Hook]
I’m built, not bought — made from the pain and the pressure
Did it on my own, now I’m stacking up the treasure
Took the long road, now I walk it like a boss
Every scar, every loss — made me never come soft

[Verse 1]
No label on my soul, no tags on my name
Didn’t rent my story — I invested in the flame
Brick by brick, yeah, I laid this lane
No cheat codes, just faith and pain

They flex for the ’Gram, I write for the grind
They want quick wins, I want peace of mind
Built from the silence, truth in every rhyme
Not for sale, I was forged in time

[Verse 2]
I came up slow, but the roots run deep
No overnight hype, just promises I keep
Didn’t cut corners, I carved my lane
Turned my setbacks into fuel for the flame

They see the shine, but not the nights I bled
Writing in the dark, demons in my head
Still I rose, no favors, no debt
Everything I got? Best believe it’s sweat
