[Intro]
I’m chasing a spark, in a city of dreams
Waiting, rising, through the seams
[Verse 1]
I wanna be like Cristiano, stand tall in the rain
Fight through the struggle, push past the pain
Mama hustled in the ghetto, food scarce, yet we aimed higher
Now I’m big in the light, but eyes still inquire
People doubt, calling it luck, saying I’m just a phase
I hustle persistence, I crave consistency in my days
They whisper “big deal,” they crown me in whispers
I seek the authority that steady hearts yield, no quitter’s fingers
[Chorus]
I’m not there yet, but I’m moving on the line
Like Ronaldo on the field, I’m choosing grind over fine
Through Kampala nights and early mornings’ grind
I’m climbing, I’m praying, I’m proving I’m mine
[Verse 2]
From village to village, from pain to a plan
I carry my family in every breath and hand
Grandpa, father, mom, and all of them too
Uncles, aunts, friends who stayed true
When money was scarce and hope wore thin
I kept the faith, I kept pushing within
Now eyes on me, not for luck but for the drive
I deserve the weight of effort that keeps dreams alive
[Chorus]
I’m not there yet, but I’m moving on the line
Like Ronaldo on the field, I’m choosing grind over fine
Through Kampala nights and early mornings’ grind
I’m climbing, I’m praying, I’m proving I’m mine
[Bridge]
God, look at my calendar, read the days I’ve spent
Family first, every tear, every vent
If stars align, I’ll stand tall in that light
A testament to persistence, to fighting the good fight
[Chorus]
I’m not there yet, but I’m moving on the line
Like Ronaldo on the field, I’m choosing grind over fine
Through Kampala nights and early mornings’ grind
I’m climbing, I’m praying, I’m proving I’m mine
[Outro]
Someday they’ll look back and see the climb
From hustle to heritage, from pressure to prime
I’ll wear the crown not for fame but for time
And say I never gave up, I kept the faith in line
