I was born

[Verse 1] I started from the bottom, where the dirt meets the concrete Every step was a battle, every breath was incomplete They told me I’d never make it, that the odds were stacked too high But I kept on pushing forward while the whole world watched me die [Chorus] I was born from the dirt, I’ll rise from the ground No chains can hold me down, no walls can keep me bound From the ashes to the sky, I’m claiming what’s mine Every scar’s a roadmap, every wound’s a sign [Verse 2] The streets taught me lessons that no classroom ever could Every empty promise left a bitter taste, it never felt good I swallowed all the pain and turned it into fuel Now I’m burning brighter than the fire I used to fear as a fool [Chorus] I was born from the dirt, I’ll rise from the ground No chains can hold me down, no walls can keep me bound From the ashes to the sky, I’m claiming what’s mine Every scar’s a roadmap, every wound’s a sign [Verse 3] They tried to break my spirit, tried to silence every word But the louder they got quiet, the more I let my voice be heard This isn’t just a moment—it’s a lifetime in the making Every sacrifice I took was worth the price I’ve been paying [Chorus] I was born from the dirt, I’ll rise from the ground No chains can hold me down, no walls can keep me bound From the ashes to the sky, I’m claiming what’s mine Every scar’s a roadmap, every wound’s a sign
