I was raised where the red clay stains your boots,
Where your mama says “work hard,” daddy says “tell the truth.”
Got a backbone built from Sundays and a heart that don’t shake,
You can try to knock me down—Lord knows, I won’t break.

Every fight, every fall, carved a fire in my soul,
And the louder the world gets, the stronger I stand tall.

’Cause I was raised on grit and glory,
Faith and family tell my story.
You can push me, you can test me—
But you’ll never, ever bend me.
Yeah, I’m rock-solid, battle-ready,
Storms roll in but I stay steady.
I was raised on grit and glory—
Ain’t nobody gonna take that from me.

Grandma’s bible on the table, daddy’s wisdom in my bones,
A little wild, a little stubborn, but I know where I belong.
I got roots that hold me strong when the world tries pulling me loose—
I’m the girl who stands her ground, yeah, I got nothing to prove.

Let the lightning strike down, let the hard wind blow—
I’m unshaken, unafraid, watch me rise through the smoke.

’Cause I was raised on grit and glory,
Faith and family tell my story.
You can push me, you can test me—
But you’ll never, ever bend me.
Yeah, I’m rock-solid, battle-ready,
Storms roll in but I stay steady.
I was raised on grit and glory—
Ain’t nobody gonna take that from me.

Oh, you can swing your punches—
I won’t fall, I won’t fold.
My faith is my fortress,
My heart’s made of gold.

’Cause I was raised on grit and glory,
Faith and family tell my story.
You can push me, you can test me—
But you’ll never, ever bend me.
Yeah, I’m rock-solid, battle-ready,
Storms roll in but I stay steady.
I was raised on grit and glory—
Ain’t nobody gonna take that from me.

Yeah, I’m unbreakable, baby.

Raised on Grit and Glory

A trilogy of noise, truth, rebellion and intimacy.

“555 — Part II” expands the universe of the original 555 with a darker, sharper, more mature edge.
Where Part I was hazy, sarcastic and socially exhausted, this new chapter dives into self-liberation, raw love, political clarity and intimate vulnerability.

It’s still noisy.
Still dreamy.
Still half-broken on purpose.

But this time, the collapse comes with teeth — and the softness comes with consequences.

Across dusty vinyl textures, washed-out shoegaze pads, slow trip-hop drums, soft theremin lines and 90s-style alt guitars, the EP becomes a trio of emotional worlds: rebellion, devotion, and slow vulnerability.

Every track is a candle burning in a different corner of the dark.
