Title: “From Nothing”

Verse 1:
Used to dream just to eat, now I fast for peace,
Wrote raps in a jacket with a draft beneath.
Now I’m up, but the glow don’t last, it fleets,
All the things I chased don’t scratch that grief.

I was broke but free, now I’m paid, still cold,
Got heat in my hands, but my chest stay old.
Used to wish on stars, now I dodge that gold,
They all smile wide, but their souls been sold.

I came from the corner with a busted phone,
Now I sit in silence in a custom zone.
Still hear my past in the undertone,
Still rap fast like I’m crushed in stone.

They don’t see that climb, just the end result,
Just the gear, the views, the consults.
But I came from a room with a rent revolt,
Now my verses breathe where the tempests bolt.

Hook:
I came from nothin’,
Now I speak like the sky split somethin’.
Still feel pain in the steps I’m runnin’,
Still outrun what they said I’d become in.
Yeah — I came from nothin’,
And that silence made me function.
Now I move with a pulse so gunnin’,
That the stars can’t blink when I summon.

Verse 2:
I ain’t never been the one for the flash or trends,
Still wear scars like they fashion pins.
Wrote my truth while they cashed in grins,
Now I speed through the beat like a crash in wind.

Got ghosts in my notes that I never erased,
Whole life in bars that I barely faced.
They see views, I see time I waste,
But I flip that guilt like a turbo base.

Never wanted fame — just to speak, get heard,
Make a life outta pain, not a lie rehearsed.
Told stories from a chair with a spine that hurt,
Now the booth go red when I rhyme this verse.

And I still write nights like the sun don’t rise,
Still ride beats with a lung full of knives.
Still too fast for the world’s disguise,
Still the same one, just with wider skies.

Hook:
I came from nothin’,
Now I speak like the sky split somethin’.
Still feel pain in the steps I’m runnin’,
Still outrun what they said I’d become in.
Yeah — I came from nothin’,
And that silence made me function.
Now I move with a pulse so gunnin’,
That the stars can’t blink when I summon.

I came from nothing

Not my usual style just how I was feeling when I built it

Verse 1
I saw you waiting such a long time
Who did you call to meet you here
How could I miss all of the signs
It was me who left you there

Chorus
and I'm singing like OOOOOOOOO
Will you run, will you run, will you run, will you run, will you run and OOOOOOOOO
Will you run, will you run, will you run, will you run, will you run

Verse 2
And now and then I thought I'd see you
Guess I wasn't thinking at all
Haven't gotten very far from leaving
But you would never take the fall

Chorus
and I'm singing like OOOOOOOOO
Will you run, will you run, will you run, will you run, will you run and OOOOOOOOO
Will you run, will you run, will you run, will you run, will you run

Bridge
I wasn't trying to think for too long
Wasn’t sure it’d work with you gone
Couldn’t find a reason not to turn too
So I just stood and let you run, let you run

Chorus
and I'm singing like OOOOOOOOO
Will you run, will you run, will you run, will you run, will you run and OOOOOOOOO
Will you run, will you run, will you run, will you run

"Talkin' That Talk" the newest release from Hip Hop artist is a hard hitting club banger about speaking out and making your voice heard. Written on election night, in a time when the country was in angst and turmoil on the horizon, Rory K thought it was only right to lay down some bars about the situation and how the nation speaking out could prevent the worst. Enjoy and Talk That Talk!
