BRING A LADDER

Dark cinematic trap R&B with subtle Afro-trap percussion, deep restrained 808 bass, intimate raw male vocal, spoken-word cold open, phone-call vocal effects, moody late-night city atmosphere, emotional street confession, minimal piano and eerie synth pads, catchy two-line refrain, slow hypnotic groove, light autotune, echo ad-libs, futuristic sci-fi tension, reflective but defiant energy

[Cold Open]

Rent due
Phone on one

Blue room
No sunlight

Everybody preach
When they sleep alright

I got ten big promises
None showed up tonight

[Phone Buzz]

Unknown call
No caller ID

Voice like chrome
Said, “You still breathe?”

I said, “Yeah
But I’m tired of signs

If you got a way out
Put it in my hands”

[The Deal]

You from a ship
You from a seam

You from a room
Behind my dream

I don’t need your badge
I don’t need your throne

Put one real move
Behind that tone

I bring work
I bring truth

I bring scars
I bring proof

You bring a road
We both move

That’s the only deal
I approve

[Refrain]

Bring me a ladder
Not another speech

Show me the door
Don’t sell me a dream

Meet me halfway
Don’t keep me small

If you got a road
Make it walkable

[Street Receipt]

Empty fridge
Cold floor

Big words
No support

They got slogans
On repeat

But no spare key
For the street

Everybody holy
When the lights are warm

Nobody stands
Inside your storm

I don’t need a sermon
I need a hand

A real one
With a real plan

[Voice Note]

“We don’t need worship
We don’t need praise

You bring the courage
We bring the bridge”

I said, “Cool
But keep it straight

No hidden tab
No later price”

[The Flip]

Angel ain’t wings
Devil ain’t horns

Angel is the hand
That stays in the storm

Devil is the camera
When you’re going under

Makes a movie
Never brings cover

I don’t care
What side you claim

I watch what you do
When you hear my name

[Refrain]

Bring me a ladder
Not another speech

Show me the door
Don’t sell me a dream

Meet me halfway
Don’t keep me small

If you got a road
Make it walkable

[Break]

Don’t need a flag
Don’t need a crown

Don’t need a heaven
Looking down

I need respect
I need a route

I need one truth
With the lights out

[Final Return]

Bring me a ladder
Not another speech

Show me the door
Don’t sell me a dream

You can land here
You can phase through walls

If we both rise
Then answer the call

Bring me a ladder
I’ll bring my name

You bring the bridge
We cross the same

No borrowed faith
No plastic glow

Just one real path
And we both go

[Outro]

Unknown call
Phone still warm

Blue room
Before the dawn

I don’t need a god
To make me small

Bring me a ladder
That’s all
