Debts to Destiny

{atmospheric beat build with vinyl crackle}

Bills stack tall like they tryna touch the skyline Pocket full of

pressure but I still keep my shine Every missed payment got a

story with a deadline Smilin’ through the struggle,

tell ’em better days are my time Credit got a scar,

but my vision stay flawless Had to learn the hard way,

every shortcut got a cost Collectors hit my phone,

let it ring, I’m stayin’ focused Buildin’ every brick back,

never livin’ feelin’ hopeless Mama said,

“Keep your head, don’t let the numbers own your name.” So I

hustle every sunrise, never fold under the strain I done carried heavy

weight, now I’m stronger from the pain Turnin’ every loss into a

lesson, that’s the game {build with added strings and hi-hat rolls} I

owe too much, but I ain’t owe my soul

Walkin’ through the fire,

still in full control Slow grind,

big dreams, watch the story unfold You can lose a little money,

never let your heart go cold I owe too much,

but tomorrow’s lookin’ bright Every step forward got me closer to the

light Yeah, the road been rough,

but I’m built for the fight Now I’m bettin’ on myself every

day and every night (yeah) Used to count the debt,

now I’m countin’ every blessing Failures in my rearview turned into a

life lesson Ain’t no overnight,

just consistent progression Small wins add up—that’s a millionaire’s direction

Paper don’t define me,

that’s a temporary phase I’m investin’ in my future while I’m workin’

through the maze

One day they’ll be askin’ how I made it from this place

I’ll just smile and say,

“Faith mixed with a little

grace.”

{breakdown with

stripped drums

and piano focus} I owe too much,

but I ain’t owe my soul

Walkin’ through the fire,

still in full control Slow grind,

big dreams, watch the story unfold You can lose a little money,

never let your heart go cold I owe too much,

but tomorrow’s lookin’ bright Every step forward got me closer to the

light Yeah, the road been rough,

but I’m built for the fight Now I’m bettin’ on myself every

day and every night

(yeah) {gradual fade with echoing piano and vinyl crackle}
