Lyrics
[Intro – somber piano melody, distant crackling fire sound effects]
Ashes in the air, lies on my name
Started from the bottom, played the only game
[Verse 1 – deep 808 bass, sharp snare hits, gravelly vocal delivery]
House went up in smoke, wife turned to my foe
Said I raised a hand to the kids I loved so
Neighbors crossed the street, cops at my door
Had to eat or starve, so I hit the floor
Started small, petty, just enough to survive
Scraped every dollar, kept my head alive
Haters talked their trash, but I kept my stride
Knew I’d climb the ladder, leave ’em all behind
[Chorus – distorted synth riff, layered vocal ad-libs, rising intensity]
From the ashes I rose, from the lies I broke
Took the disrespect, turned it into hope
Boxes of cash, wheels on the road
Kids had everything, but the tide was slow
They tried to bury me, but I grew roots deep
Gained the respect they never thought I’d keep
Now the tables turned, but the cost was steep
Ashes to crowns, but the past won’t sleep
[Verse 2 – faster hi-hats, menacing synth hum, aggressive flow]
Process of elimination, cut the dead weight loose
Hired the ones who’d play by my ruthless rules
Dirty work done quiet, no need for fuss
Stacked the paper high, bought the toys and the buzz
Jarlus on the wall, motor home on the lot
Brand new rides, forgot what it was to not
Kids had the games, the clothes, the best of the best
I thought I’d won, but the feds had a quest
[Chorus – amplified bass, echoing vocals, peak intensity]
From the ashes I rose, from the lies I broke
Took the disrespect, turned it into hope
Boxes of cash, wheels on the road
Kids had everything, but the tide was slow
They tried to bury me, but I grew roots deep
Gained the respect they never thought I’d keep
Now the tables turned, but the cost was steep
Ashes to crowns, but the past won’t sleep
[Bridge – sparse piano, quiet 808, vulnerable vocal tone]
Locked behind these bars, staring at the wall
Wondering if the kids still hear my call
All the money, the power, the fake respect
Gone in a second, just a memory’s effect
I did what I had to, to keep them fed
But the price I paid left me half-dead
[Solo – haunting piano melody, building trap beat]
(Instrumental Solo)
[Final Chorus – full trap ensemble, raw screaming vocals, desperate energy]
From the ashes I rose, from the lies I broke
Took the disrespect, turned it into hope
Boxes of cash, wheels on the road
Kids had everything, but the tide was slow
They tried to bury me, but I grew roots deep
Gained the respect they never thought I’d keep
Now the tables turned, but the cost was steep
Ashes to crowns, but the past won’t sleep
[Outro – fading piano, soft 808, whispered vocals]
Ashes in the air, lies on my name
Started from the bottom, played the only game
