Lyrics
Prelude
Rain on the window, city drowned in midnight
Static in my mind, thoughts heavy, never light
Bassline creeping in like a secret I hide
Street tales run deep where the shadows collide
Footsteps echo, pavement cold as regret
No silver linings, just a lesson you ain't met yet
Money in the cracks and the dreams in the drain
Only truth that I trust is the grind and the pain
Intro
Dark clouds movin in, heart heavy, keep composure
Lessons carved in pain, make a soldier
Yeah, bass deep, east side, listen
Intro
Dark clouds movin in, heart heavy, keep composure
Lessons carved in pain, make a soldier
Yeah, bass deep, east side, listen
Verse 1
See that heartbreak wasn't punishment, uh-uh
Built from the gutters, learn to duck the laws
Friends turn to foes, snakes shed on the lawn
Trust in the pain, my vision stay sharp
Nightmares in the stairwell, hope never gone
Glory or the grave, been runnin too long
Silence in the streets, truth sittin in my palm
Used to want revenge, now I’m moving on
Chorus
See that heartbreak wasn’t punishment, uh-uh
It was protection, part of my projection
Now don’t let it go over your head
Straight up let’s go, rise from all I bled
Verse 2
Paranoia got me watching who’s behind me
Lost too many brothers to the game, tryna find me
Staring out the window at a world that’s grinding
Cold soul, turn the hurt into perfect timing
Memories on corners, where dreams get sold
Spirit never broke, even when the world cold
Lessons in my losses, wisdom never old
From the below to the bold, East side’s gold
Chorus
See that heartbreak wasn’t punishment, uh-uh
It was protection, part of my projection
Now don’t let it go over your head
Straight up let’s go, rise from all I bled
Verse 3
Trust built on nothing, foundations that crack
Had to lose everything just to take it all back
No love in the silence, just lessons in pain
Kept my code through the drought, never switching for fame
Dodged every fake hand, found peace in the scars
Money come and go, at night you count bars
Still stand tall, yeah the shadows been long
But my loyalty strong, kept me right all along
Outro
It ain’t punishment, learned to see the signs
Real ones know, it’s protection by design
Rain fades slow, but the hunger don’t end
Still rise from the fire, truth never bend
