[Intro]
Yo, this one’s for the journey, the highs and lows,
The moments that shape us, where the realness flows.
Grab the mic, let’s paint life in these bars,
Old soul with a new spark, reachin’ for the stars.  

[Verse 1]
Life’s a canvas, I’m brushin’ with bold strokes,
Dreams in my dome while the world stays cutthroat.
Born in the struggle, concrete jungle my maze,
Mom’s prayers echo through them long, hard days.
I pen truth, ink bleeds like my heart’s own veins,
Every scar’s a story, every loss builds gains.
From the block to the booth, I’m dodgin’ the traps,
Rhymes sharp like a blade, cut through life’s cold maps.
Ayo, the rhythm’s my pulse, the kick’s my stride,
I’m ridin’ this beat like the waves of the tide.  

[Chorus]
Life’s a rhyme, we scribble through the pain,
Sunshine or storm, we dancin’ in the rain.
From the roots to the sky, we grow, we climb,
Every bar’s a heartbeat, every verse is time.  

[Verse 2]
Switch the flow, now I’m floatin’ like a breeze,
New gen in my veins, but my soul’s OG.
City lights flicker, dreams glow in the haze,
Chasin’ my truth through these neon-lit days.
Got a chip on my shoulder, but my heart stays light,
Pen’s my sword, I’m a poet in the fight.
Friends turned ghosts, love faded to gray,
But I’m still writin’ bars to keep the dark at bay.
Life’s a chessboard, I’m movin’ like a knight,
Curvin’ through the chaos, keep my vision tight.  

[Break]
Yo, hold up… life ain’t just the hustle,
It’s the quiet moments, the love, the tussle.
Take a breath, let the record spin slow,
Feel the soul in the sound, let the story grow.  

[Verse 3]
Back with the heat, rhyme scheme switchin’ up fast,
Life’s a marathon, I’m sprintin’ through the past.
Memories haunt like a bassline that thumps,
Every choice I made left scars and some bumps.
But I’m built for the grind, soul forged in the fire,
Climbin’ every mountain, takin’ dreams up higher.
Lost my way once, wandered in the fog,
Found my path in the rhythm, now I’m writin’ with God.
Ayo, the mic’s my altar, these bars my prayer,
Spittin’ for the lost ones still fightin’ despair.  

[Chorus]
Life’s a rhyme, we scribble through the pain,
Sunshine or storm, we dancin’ in the rain.
From the roots to the sky, we grow, we climb,
Every bar’s a heartbeat, every verse is time.  

[Interlude]
This for the dreamers, the schemers, the broken,
The ones holdin’ hope when the world’s left ‘em chokin’.
Life’s a stage, we perform through the strife,
Grab the mic, yo, and spit your own life.  

[Verse 4]
Now I’m coastin’, flow butter like it’s melted,
Life’s a deck of cards, and I’m playin’ what’s dealt it.
From the stoop to the stars, I’m reppin’ my truth,
Old school in my bones, but my vibe’s still youth.
Got a queen by my side, she’s my ride-or-die muse,
Together we build, dodgin’ life’s short fuse.
Every hater’s a lesson, every win’s a reward,
I’m slicin’ through the noise like a samurai’s sword.
Pen’s my compass, guidin’ through the storm,
Life’s a track, and I’m shapin’ its form.  

[Verse 5]
Final verse, let’s close with a bang,
Life’s a melody, I’m the note that sang.
From the cradle to the grave, we scribble our tale,
Some soar, some sink, some fight, some fail.
But I’m here, still spittin’ with a fire in my chest,
Every rhyme’s a brick in the life I’ve professed.
Kids in the future, hear this on repeat,
Know your story’s yours, make it soulful and deep.
I’m out, but the beat keeps loopin’ through time,
Life’s the rhythm, and we all write the rhyme.  

[Outro]
[Beat slows, horns fade into a warm vinyl hiss. A lone kick drum pulses, then cuts.]
Yo, that’s life, fam. Keep writin’ your bars.
No matter the struggle, you’re born from the stars.
