Built From Broken
Georgia Phantom
3:18Yeah... This one's for the lost, the broke, the hungry... The ones they counted out. Truth is - you were made for this. Let's go. Used to stare at the ceiling, couldn't sleep at night Mama cryin' in the kitchen, I just prayed she'd fight No heat in the winter, just a hoodie and faith Still went to school like I ain't feel the weight Bullies talk slick, I ain't talk back I just took that pain and wrote raps on my backpack No silver spoon, just spoiled plans But I kept climbin' with these busted hands They said I'd break, said I'd fade But I turned every tear to a better way Now I'm here - with a purpose in my fist I ain't born to quit - I was made for this I came from the bottom, still rose like flame Turned hurt into hustle, turned loss into gain Had nothin' but will - now I carry my name They said I couldn't - I did it anyway I was made for this, built from pain Cut from scars, not the fame Dreams don't die when you bleed and persist This ain't luck - I was made for this Used to dodge debt like I dodged fists Now I stack checks with the same grit Had nights with no food, just rhymes in my chest Now I drop bars that could wake the oppressed I know what it's like to feel unseen To fight your mind and chase one dream But pressure makes diamonds - pain brings vision You ain't broke, lil' bro - you're just in transition To the kids in the shadows, hold your ground Every "no" you hear builds your crown You ain't lost - you're loadin' And one day, you gon' blow without warnin' I came from the bottom, still rose like flame Turned hurt into hustle, turned loss into gain Had nothin' but will - now I carry my name They said I couldn't - I did it anyway I was made for this, born for truth Grind in my soul, fire in my roots Tell every kid in the dark right now: You ain't done - you're just breakin' through Still breathin'... Still risin'... Still made for this. Georgia Phantom. This one's for the youth.
