Caramel

I'm the Man, That Will Find You

More Than I Bargained For V

Sirens slice the distance and I grip my prayer like iron
My soul patched together after hunger after desire after sin
When faith starts fading I strike that ember until it flares
This grind taught me to lift my eyes when the weight drops low
I hold a fire inside no dark corner can choke
I watched too many brothers fall because they stopped believing in the smoke

I am the child of pavement and the rise of steady hope
When dawn rips through the night my salvation climbs the slope
I carry the ember of faith running fierce inside my veins
I walk on I rise I become the promise I claim

Street pressure hisses regret and offers traps with friendly smiles
My scars are medals lifted high without a trace of shame
When shadow leans heavy I answer with a flash that blinds
The urban drum keeps calling through the walls that still resist
I repeat my vow and wake the ember that refuses sleep
I become the beacon burning for the ones who lost their speech

I am the child of pavement and the rise of steady hope
When dawn rips through the night my salvation climbs the slope
I carry the ember of faith running fierce inside my veins
I walk on I rise I become the promise I claim

Listen to the drum in your chest striking against the ground
Rise up fill your lungs answer the horizon with sound

I am the child of pavement and the rise of steady hope
When dawn rips through the night my salvation climbs the slope
I carry the ember of faith running fierce inside my veins
I walk on I rise I become the promise I claim

The city roars but I keep my spine straight
My inner fire pushes through every alley I navigate
Redemption walks beside me with steps that never slow
And this ember in my chest leads me to the dawn’s first glow

I am the child of pavement


Born on the wrong side
Never had much choice
Lady luck gets to decide
If anyone hears your voice

Right place in the right time
Or the perhaps the opposite
Graft and grind don't matter much
When luck won't permit

Some are born with everything
Some get nothing at all
Random as a dice roll
Who rises and who falls

Roll the dice
See what you get
Roll the dice
No safe bet
Nothing's earned
Nothing's fair
Just roll the dice
And say a prayer 

Work your finger to the bone
Still might lose it all
While some sleepwalk through life
Never take a fall

Pray to whatever god you want
Still won't change the game
Chance don't care a fig about
Your fear or your pain

Some are born with everything
Some get nothing at all
Random as a dice roll
Who rises and who falls

Roll the dice
See what you get
Roll the dice
No safe bet
Nothing's earned
Nothing's fair
Just roll the dice
And say a prayer
