This Ain't Luck

This ain't luck, it's legacy
You ain't break me, you built me

Made it out the mud with a message
Took every L, turned pain into leverage
Tears in the dark, now I light up blocks
With a Word so sharp it split chains off locks
Ain't no shame in the process
Every scar gave me progress
This calling ain't cute, it's war
But I ain't who I was before

I stood in the fire and smiled
Devil hit hard, but I stayed God's child
Tried to curse me, I spoke back praise
Turned valleys into battlegrounds I blaze
This oil got weight, it don't drip light
It was crushed out my sleepless nights
So I walk like the war's already won
'Cause I don't just carry, I run

Built for the trenches, born for the heat
Speak with flame, but my soul stay meek
I ain't flexin', I'm formed
By storms, betrayal, and thorns
Now I plant where the hopeless cry
I build altars where the pride would die
Don't ask why I go so hard
I was shaped by God with broken parts

I was built for this, forged in flames
I don't fold, I claim that name
They threw dirt, I turned it to stage
Took my cage, turned it to praise
I was built for this, storm–born soul
I don't run, I rise and roll
This ain't luck, it's Heaven's script
Say my scars, now read my gift

Built for this
Now watch me build others
