Lyrics
Intro
Paper on desk. Flame spark.
Verse 1
Contract slid across cheap desk wood
Promise gold but the fine print hood
Seen men sell out faster than they should
For a taste of misunderstood
Coke backstage in silver trays
Smile wide but the spirit decays
I watched legends lose their way
Over one white-lined display
Hook
Roll One & Chill over dotted lines
Gelato Glow Records read between signs
We build slow through honest rhymes
No shortcuts, no crime
Verse 2
Blues guitar cry in the corner
I ain’t bowing to an owner
Seen addiction disown ya
Turn a titan into loner
Leaf in lungs, steady mind
I ain’t blind
Just refined
In what I align
Bridge
Bass low under the doubt
Drums steady drown it out
No clout
Just route
Verse 3
Gelato Glow Sessions stack slow
One release then grow
No casino blow
Just portfolio
Outro
Smoke drift above the page
No cage
Just stage
