Intro

Yeah…

I been through pain, but I’m still standin’

Look

Hook

I was down bad, had to learn how to fight it

Heart full of scars, yeah, the streets got violent

They ain’t believe, now they watchin’ in silence

Came from the dark, now my future look bright, yeah

Life move fast, gotta take advantage

They switched up, I don’t understand it

I been through hell, yeah, I had to manage

But I’m still standin’, yeah, I’m still standin’

Verse 1

I remember nights I was cryin’ alone

Tryna make a way, couldn’t call it a home

Everybody fake when you down on your own

Now they call my phone when they see I’m on

Lost some brothers, yeah, that pain hit deep

Had nightmares, couldn’t barely sleep

Had dreams way bigger than the streets

Now I’m gettin’ closer, still grindin’ each week

They ain’t feel the rain when it poured on me

Had nobody there when I couldn’t eat

Now I shine hard, yeah, the jewelry gleam

But the pain inside still hauntin’ me

Hook

I was down bad, had to learn how to fight it

Heart full of scars, yeah, the streets got violent

They ain’t believe, now they watchin’ in silence

Came from the dark, now my future look bright, yeah

Life move fast, gotta take advantage

They switched up, I don’t understand it

I been through hell, yeah, I had to manage

But I’m still standin’, yeah, I’m still standin’

Verse 2

Had trust issues, I been stabbed in the back

Gave my heart out, never got it back

They love you when you winnin’, hate when you lack

I just stayed focused, stayed on my path

I done seen friends turn into foes

Seen fake love, yeah, everybody know

If I make it out, I’ma put on my bros

Prayin’ every night, tryna save my soul

If I fall down, I get back up stronger

Came too far, I ain’t stoppin’ no longer

Pain made me real, yeah, it turned me a monster

Heart got cold, but my faith got stronger

Outro / Hook

I was down bad, now I’m finally free

Still got pain, but it don’t control me

Came from the bottom, they ain’t see the vision

Now I’m still standin’—this my redemption
