Verse 1

I woke up with the sunrise, city in my lungs

Every move calculated, like the words unsung

They told me play it safe, stay inside the lines

But I drew my own map, left the fear behind

I was raised on pavement, dreams made of steel

Every scar a lesson, every cut a deal

They see the surface glow but not the weight I hold

A story carved in marble, but the streets are cold

Chorus

I'm from the concrete where the dreams get tested

Where the strong survive and the weak get rested

But I ain't looking back, I just press the pedal

Made of iron will, bending like a metal

Yeah, they see the shine, but they don't know the struggle

I'm still standing tall, even when the ground crumbles

Verse 2

Had to break the mold just to find my shape
