Every Drop

[Intro – Voice 1 (aggressive)] (Yeah…) Listen. Rust and concrete. No rehearsals. Let’s ride. [Verse 1 – Voice 1 (hard delivery)] I stepped on the block where the paint’s peeling off, Every corner had a price, every shadow had a cough. They told me I’d choke when the air got too thick, But I turned every wall into a step, not a brick. From cold hands to a grip that won’t slip, I earned every second, never took the easy trip. No favors, no shortcuts, just the weight in my chest, I built this empire out of what they left to rest. [Chorus – Both Voices, Version 1: The Grind] We don’t chase the shine, we chase the grind instead, Every drop of sweat is a word that we never said. No handouts, no pity, just the fire in our veins, We’re not waiting for luck—we’re breaking down the chains. Yeah, this is our fight, we ain’t folding, not today, We own the noise, we own the way. [Verse 2 – Voice 2 (confident, grounded flow)] I saw the cracks before the rain ever fell, Learned to read the silence where the truth hides well. They tried to sell me peace with a price tag on the side, But I tore up the contract and walked through the lie. I kept my eyes on the target, never lost the aim, Every fake smile I saw just sharpened my flame. It’s not about the spotlight, it’s about the weight I hold, Staying real in a world that trades soul for cold gold. [Chorus – Both Voices, Version 2: The Code] We live by the code that the streets wrote in dust, Every choice we make is a line we don’t trust. No favors, no pity, just the steel in our chest, We’re building our legacy with nothing but our rest. Yeah, this is our path, we ain’t turning, not now, We write the rules, we take the crown. [Verse 3 – Voice 1 & Voice 2 (call‑and‑response)] [Voice 1 (hard)] They said we’d break when the wind cut too deep, [Voice 2 (steady)] We turned that wind into wings we could keep. [Voice 1 (hard)] I remember the hunger, the ache in my bones, [Voice 2 (steady)] I remember the doubt, the weight on my throne. [Voice 1 (hard)] But we never gave in, never bowed to the fear, [Voice 2 (steady)] Every scar we wear is a medal we hold dear. [Voice 1 (hard)] This ain’t luck, this is war we declared, [Voice 2 (steady)] Our names are etched where the dark meets the air. [Chorus – Both Voices, Version 3: The Mark] We leave our mark where the rust used to hide, Every move we make is a truth we can’t deny. No handouts, no pity, just the blood in our veins, We’re not walking away—we’re burning down the pain. Yeah, this is our time, we ain’t stepping aside, We ride through the fire, we own the ride. [Outro – Voice 1 (aggressive)] Two voices. One fire. [Voice 2 (grounded)] One block. One truth. [Both] We didn’t ask for permission. (Yeah…)
