Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I took my pain, wrote it down, now it’s wealth (Woo!)
Had to lose friends just to find my real self (Damn!)
Told me stay patient, but the time don’t wait (Huh?)
So I made my own lane, put the world on skates (Sheesh!)

They was throwin’ shade, I just turned it to light (What?)
Had to learn the hard way, every wrong made me right (Woo!)
Used to stress dollars, now the numbers take flight (Damn!)
Put my name in the stars, every loss gave me height (Sheesh!)

I was knee-deep, now I walk like a king (Huh?)
Turned my biggest fight to a championship ring (Woo!)
Told ‘em I ain’t fold, I was built for the sting (Damn!)
Now my old scars look like trophies on my skin (Sheesh!)

⸻

[Chorus]
Yeah, my worst days turned me into who I am (Woo!)
Every closed door just expanded the plan (Damn!)
Had to take the pain, had to carve it in my hands (Huh?)
Now I move strong, I don’t break, I don’t bend (Sheesh!)

Yeah, my enemies taught me what the books ain’t say (Woo!)
Had to face the fire just to walk my way (Damn!)
Took every scar, turned the hurt to a play (Huh?)
Now the same dark nights put my city on a stage (Sheesh!)

⸻

[Verse 2]
I don’t hold grudges, I just hold what I learned (What?)
Had to lose sleep just to earn what I earned (Woo!)
Had to take risks just to double my worth (Damn!)
Now my past struggles pay the bills every first (Sheesh!)

Told ‘em pain don’t kill, it just sharpen the view (Huh?)
I been through the storm, now the sky more blue (Woo!)
Used to see limits, now I only see through (Damn!)
Turned every setback to a boss move or two (Sheesh!)

I was lost, now my steps feel divine (What?)
Took a couple falls, but I landed on time (Woo!)
Told ‘em I ain’t bitter, I just read between lines (Damn!)
Now I see the game like the play was designed (Sheesh!)

⸻

[Chorus]
Yeah, my worst days turned me into who I am (Woo!)
Every closed door just expanded the plan (Damn!)
Had to take the pain, had to carve it in my hands (Huh?)
Now I move strong, I don’t break, I don’t bend (Sheesh!)

Yeah, my enemies taught me what the books ain’t say (Woo!)
Had to face the fire just to walk my way (Damn!)
Took every scar, turned the hurt to a play (Huh?)
Now the same dark nights put my city on a stage (Sheesh!)

⸻

[Outro]
Yeah, I see it now, had to lose just to win (Woo!)
Had to let go just to pull more in (Damn!)
Told ‘em I ain’t change, I just move more thin (Huh?)
Only thing I chase now is the next big win (Sheesh!)
