One Of Them

I Wish I Knew

[Verse 1]
Used to sleep on cold concrete, sky my only roof,
Life felt heavy, nights so dark, I had no proof.
Suicidal thoughts creeping, heart full of pain,
Every day a battle, every night felt like rain.
Friends were few, hope was smaller than a dime,
Dreams buried deep, lost track of time.
But I kept one spark, that whisper inside,
Said “keep pushin’, keep movin’, you gon’ survive.”

[Pre-Chorus]
Every tear, every scar, every lonely night,
Built the fire in my soul, now I’m chasing the light.

[Chorus]
I used to be homeless, suicidal, lost in the blue,
But I’m livin’ proof, baby, you can change too.
Stackin’ dreams, risin’ high, fire in my chest,
Every struggle, every loss, put my heart to the test.
I used to be broken, but now I rise,
Turnin’ pain into power, reachin’ for the skies.

[Verse 2]
Cold nights, empty stomach, praying for a sign,
Life was a storm, every step a thin line.
Hustlin’ on the streets, dreams slipping through my hands,
But I refused to fold, refused to lose my stance.
Every dollar earned, every move I made,
Turned my tears into fuel, never let my spirit fade.
Now I’m drivin’ towards success, leaving the past behind,
I’m livin’ proof, baby, change is yours to find.

[Pre-Chorus]
Every tear, every scar, every lonely night,
Built the fire in my soul, now I’m chasing the light.

[Chorus]
I used to be homeless, suicidal, lost in the blue,
But I’m livin’ proof, baby, you can change too.
Stackin’ dreams, risin’ high, fire in my chest,
Every struggle, every loss, put my heart to the test.
I used to be broken, but now I rise,
Turnin’ pain into power, reachin’ for the skies.

[Bridge]
It ain’t just the money, it ain’t just the fame,
It’s the strength inside that conquered the pain.
Every sleepless night, every tear I cried,
Built the steel in my soul, now I stand with pride.
To anyone out there, lost, broken, in fear,
Your tomorrow’s coming, the path is clear.
I walked the darkness, felt the weight of despair,
But I rose from the ashes, now I’m here to declare.

[Verse 3]
Now the city skyline shines, empire at my feet,
Every risk, every grind, every loss turned sweet.
From streets to penthouses, dreams now alive,
Every move I made proved that you can survive.
I’m livin’ proof, baby, hope is not gone,
Turn your struggles to power, rise at dawn.
Every heartbreak, every night, every fight you go through,
Can be the spark to show the world the real you.

[Chorus]
I used to be homeless, suicidal, lost in the blue,
But I’m livin’ proof, baby, you can change too.
Stackin’ dreams, risin’ high, fire in my chest,
Every struggle, every loss, put my heart to the test.
I used to be broken, but now I rise,
Turnin’ pain into power, reachin’ for the skies.

[Outro]
Every tear, every scar, every lonely night,
Built the man I am, now my future’s bright.
I used to be homeless, suicidal — now I stand true,
I’m livin’ proof, baby, you can change too.
