From The Bottom
A song made by zero quatre (GC)
Yeah, came from nothing, now I'm something
Street dreams turned to reality, uh
Started in the trenches where the block was cold
Empty pockets, empty fridge, but my heart was gold
Mama working double shifts just to keep the lights on
I was thirteen on the corner, had to write my own song
No handouts, no silver spoon in my mouth
Just survival instincts from the dirty south
Watched my brothers fall, some to prison, some to graves
I was built different, turning pain into waves, no cap
Every scar tells a story of the hustle
Every loss made me stronger, built more muscle
They counted me out when I was down on my knees
Now I'm standing tall, making moves overseas
I came from the street where the wolves don't sleep
Where the strong survive and the weak get beat
Now I'm rising up, yeah, I'm claiming my seat
From the concrete jungle to the top of the peak, let's go
I came from the street, yeah, the street made me
Turned my struggle into gold, now they all wanna see
Remember days when the rent was due, fridge was bare
Now I'm pulling up in whips that turn heads everywhere, skrrt
They said I wouldn't make it, said I'd end up dead or locked
Now I'm breaking every ceiling, yeah, I'm harder than a rock
Street taught me lessons that no school ever could
Loyalty, survival, and misunderstood
I lost homies to the game, poured out liquor for the fallen
But their memory keeps me driven, that's my calling
Every setback was a setup for a comeback story
From the shadows to the spotlight, now I'm getting glory
They see the chain, the fame, but don't see the pain
Don't see the nights I cried, walking in the rain, sheesh
I came from the street where the wolves don't sleep
Where the strong survive and the weak get beat
Now I'm rising up, yeah, I'm claiming my seat
From the concrete jungle to the top of the peak, gang
I came from the street, yeah, the street made me
Turned my struggle into gold, now they all wanna see
From the bottom to the top, never looking back
Street raised me, now I'm on the right track, yeah
