[Intro]
Light from streetlamps paints the pavement steel
Feet keep time to a heartbeat that won’t yield
[Verse 1]
I walk the line where danger wears a grin
Coins in my pocket, grit under my skin
No gilded doors, I make my own way in
Every step is earned, every loss is a win
I talk in iron resolve, never pretend
Streetwise creed, I’m my own end and begin
[Pre-Chorus]
Clock tower blares, but I move at my pace
Lessons carved in asphalt, carved into my face
[Chorus]
Ownership of my life, I claim it now
Built this ground with sweat, I’m standing loud
If you doubt the road I chose, I’ll show you how
I own my fate, I’m unbound, I wear my crown
[Verse 2]
Risk is a language I fluent in doubt
Bold moves, clear eyes, I won’t look down
From cracked concrete rises a city I own
Self-made creed carved in every bone
[Pre-Chorus]
Sirens sing soft while I sharpen my crown
I’m the author of ends, the start of the now
[Chorus]
Ownership of my life, I claim it now
Built this ground with sweat, I’m standing loud
If you doubt the road I chose, I’ll show you how
I own my fate, I’m unbound, I wear my crown
[Bridge]
On streets that test me, I found my proof
I write my story in steady, earned truth
[Chorus]
Ownership of my life, I claim it now
Built this ground with sweat, I’m standing loud
If you doubt the road I chose, I’ll show you how
I own my fate, I’m unbound, I wear my crown
[Outro]
Yeah, I own my life, I wear it proud
I’m the grit in the night, I’m the thunder loud
