(Verse 1)
Yeah, they called me trouble, said Iād never rise,
Skipping school, breaking rules, seeing pain in their eyes.
Kicked out the gates, said I wouldnāt make it,
Lost in the chaos, trying hard to fake it.
(Chorus)
But I flipped the page, found a way to stand tall,
Through the losses and the lessons, I aināt trippinā on the fall.
Now Iām built up strong, got a purpose in my hand,
Love and family, turned the boy to a man.
(Verse 2)
Lost some loved ones, tears hit the ground,
Heart feeling hollow, no one else around.
Had to face my demons, had to f***t my past,
Looked in the mirror, said, āThis pain wonāt last.ā
(Chorus)
But I flipped the page, found a way to stand tall,
Through the losses and the lessons, I aināt trippinā on the fall.
Now Iām built up strong, got a purpose in my hand,
Love and family, turned the boy to a man.
(Verse 3)
Then she walked in, heart skipped a b**t,
She saw the real me, not the rumors on the street.
Love hit deep, like a melody so fine,
Gave me a reason, put her hand in mine.
(Bridge)
Now weāre building up a life, little hands to hold,
Protecting my fam, gotta play my role.
No more reckless nights, just bedtime stories,
Pass down wisdom, paint a future full of glory.
(Outro)
Started as the misfit, now Iām making amends,
The story aināt perfect, but Iām proud of the end.
From the naughty kid to a man standing tall,
Love made me stronger, now Iāve answered the call
